War of the Ring: The Card Game

Inspired by the bestselling and award-winning board game War of the Ring, War of the Ring - The Card Game lets players travel to the world of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and create their own version of the dramatic conflict between the Dark Lord, Sauron, and the Free Peoples of Middle-earth.

In War of the Ring - The Card Game, up to 4 players compete in two teams, the Shadow against the Free Peoples, with each player using a specific and different deck of cards representing the strengths and weaknesses of the various factions involved in the war.

The Free Peoples are desperately trying to complete their quest to destroy the One Ring, while simultaneously defending their homelands from the encroaching hordes of Sauron and his evil allies. The Shadow players must strike quickly and decisively, before the Ringbearers can complete their quest; or try to slowly corrupt Frodo and saddle him with wounds, toil and grief for the loss of his Companions.

During the game, players take turns playing cards representing the characters, armies, items and events of the War of the Ring. Each card they play will help or hinder the Fellowship's journey along its Path; or be used to defend or conquer the strongholds of Middle-earth, while fighting for the new Battleground cards that are activated in each round.

Featuring more than 100 original illustrations by the world's greatest Tolkienian artists, including an amazing gallery of landscapes from The Shire to Mordor by John and Fataneh Howe, War of the Ring - The Card Game is more than a game - it is also a memorable collection for all lovers of the world J.R.R. Tolkien imagined.

This is your chance to forge the fate of an era like you've never done before!
