[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 4554244, member: 7635"] I bought it dirt cheap when a local bookseller was closing. If I ever figure out how to make a PC, I'll let you know how it plays. :rant: As to 4e for LotR, I could be done in a martial only + multi-class arcane system (with limited rituals and revised magic item selection). The game would lack a controller for now, but that's life. (Surprisingly, the bard class might make an effective "caster" in the Tolkien world, if you need a full arcane class). Using the common "no magic" house rule (+1 to hit, damage, AC, & defenses every 5 levels) you could even use many monsters as written (treants, orcs, worgs, goblins, balors, wights, and wraiths) The big thing would, of course be tonal. Rewarding XP for moral quandries and role-playing (the challenge level/skill challenge system might be a good place to start). [/QUOTE]
