War of the Ring: Lords of Middle-earth
Adds alternate histories and new factions by putting important characters and unique rules on the board rather than only in event decks. Introduces new playable personalities—such as powerful Elves, corrupted leaders, and a Balrog—each with their own figures and abilities, plus alternate versions of familiar heroes and villains. Includes new special action dice for both sides and revised companion minis to enable optional council and fellowship variants, expanding strategic choices and replay options.
