[OT?] Lord of the Rings - RISK

[Bagpuss]

I got the Lord of the Rings - RISK boardgame for Christmas and so far have only played one game, seems pretty good, much faster than the original RISK and the new rules and mission cards lead to different tactics as well.

One thing that struck me was the map lack Gondor and Mordor, and seems a little smaller than the standard RISK map. I'm wondering if they are planning an add-on in time for the RotK film release.

Anyone else get this?

Hmm - mind you, I don't recall what is mentioned in the thread, but I do happen to have a thread bookmarked where someone asked about this same game while considering it as a purchase...

I don't have it though, so I can't be any more help than that

There is an expansion due out in 2003. It will add two more army sets to the game and will include the Gondor, Mordor and Harad (south of Gondor and Mordor)

I got the LoTR RISK today, but I haven't played it yet. I also got RISK 2210, and I did play it, and boy is it neat!
