I think the artwork is great, and I've purchased two of the 5e source books. Not sure that I would want to try a different system entirely though.
So, someone has a link to what's new in this edition apart from the cover?
This is a role playing game of adventurers in Middle-earth not reliving the footsteps of The Fellowship.You haven't read Appendix A to the Lord of the Rings, have you?
There are dwarven women, but they are rare and stay underground.
I agree there shouldn't be a dwarven woman adventurer on the cover, since that would constitute a breach of canon to rival the ridiculous elven-dwarven romance in the Hobbit movies.
For those who invested heavily in the first edition, nothing in the second edition invalidates the rules of the first edition if your table wants to continue playing the first edition.Spent a fortune over the last few years on TOR. How much rule tweaking will there be. Really like the game but it better be amazing to persuade me. Artwork feels to busy, some be more sombre and subdued
I don't have my LotR books with me, but can anyone remind me what chapter it was when Gimli got his reassignment surgery?
Yeah. Plus the timeline has moved on a lot and new areas being developed so all new good stuff
