The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring – Battle in Balin's Tomb
Fight the iconic battle in Balin's tomb over 12 rounds, with one player controlling the Goblins of Moria and the other leading the Fellowship. The Goblin player draws cards, deploys reinforcements and possibly the Cave Troll, then moves and attacks with each miniature. The Fellowship activates after all Goblins have acted. At the end of the game, the Fellowship wins by keeping Frodo and at least two other characters alive; the Goblin player wins if fewer than three Fellowship characters survive.
