Der Herr der Ringe: Die Gefährten

German edition. The players take the parts of the hobbits who make the journey from Hobbiton to Amon Hen in 4 stages. In each stage monsters have to be faced and events overcome, and there are bonuses for the hobbits who finish the stage first. Play involves assigning dice between movement and battle. Fast movement means you are more likely to get the end of stage bonus, but also means more battles. Losing a battle forces you backwards on the movement track. The cards show scenes from the excellent first film of the trilogy. German copy with English text pasted onto the cards. UK postage flat fee £4 for 1st game, £7 for 2 games or more. All games shipped UK Royal Mail tracked 48. Non UK postage by request. No postage cost if picking up at one of my open days. (www.madhatterboardgames.co.uk for more info.)
