Description:
WizKids delves into the world of J.R.R. Tolkein’s Middle-earth once again with their second "dice building” game. The Lord of the Rings Dice Building Game uses custom-designed dice to represent armies of Men, Dwarves, Elves, and Hobbits battling against the forces of Sauron. The new dice building game is based on the game mechanics that first appeared in WizKids’ Quarriors! game, designed by Mike Elliott and Eric Lang. The Middle-earth themed version was developed by Jeph Stahl and Brett Myers. Quarriors! designer Elliott described the adaptation of the mechanic in the announcement. "Fans of Quarriors will readily recognize the dice building mechanic...,” he said, "but The Lord of the Rings Dice Building Game explores a few key elements that make it an entirely new experience out of the box,” according to Elliott. Components: 97 six-sided custom Dice: 15 Darkness Dice (5 FotR Sauron - black/white, 5 Two Towers Sauron - black/orange, 5 RotK Sauron - orange/black); 12 Artifacts Dice (4 Elven Gifts - lavender swirl/white, 4 Heirlooms - brown swirl/white, 4 Weapons - black swirl/white); 70 The Fellowship Dice (32 Frodo - dark green/white, 10 Sanwise Gamgee - dark olive green/white, 4 Bill the Pony - brown/white, 4 Gollum/Sméagol - translucent pale olive/ black, 4 Gandalf the Gray/Gandalf the White - gray/white, 4 Merry & Pippin/Treebeard - light brown/white, 4 Legolas & Gimli/Eowyn & Theoden olive/black, 4 Aragorn/Arwen -beige/blue, 4 Boromir/Faramir - blue/beige). 20 Corruption Markers (0.5” dia. round, red cardboard) 1 The One Ring marker (0.5” dia. round black cardboard) 4 Player mats (19.5x12.5cm cardstock) 1 Sauron Mat (18.5x12.5 cardstock) 1 Score Tracker Mat (12.5x12.5cm cardstock) 4 Player bags (red, blue, green, black). 4 Scoring cubes (1cm wooden - red, blue, green, black). 32 Cards: 6 double-sided Unit Cards, 3 Basic Cards, 12 Artifact Cards, 8 Location Cards, 3 Enemy Cards Rules
