So apparently the publisher of the One Ring and its fans think the complete opposite to your point. The pittering around and continuing on journeys, is the point to Lord of the Rings story with events like Weathertop, Mines of Moria as highlights to the game that is mostly about the journey. Doing it how you suggest is more like D&D, and nothing like the real Lord of the Rings. Its strange because many fans say the One Ring is an excellent adaption of Tolkien's works as an RPG, thus more like the books and less like the movies. It seems both fans and publisher favor conditions opposite to your point.</p></blockquote><p></p>
