Rise of Angmar™

Preorders Aug24 MESBG AngmarBook

A gripping campaign system links 22 new Narrative Play scenarios together to tell the story of Arnor’s decline, and pairs with an extensive lore section to give Middle-earth fans an in-depth summary of the whole tragic conflict.

Eärnur™, the Last King of Gondor™ 

Preorders Aug24 MESBG EärnurLastKingOfGondor

Before being crowned as King of Gondor, Eärnur sought to slay the Witch-king personally, and nearly succeeded – but for a mishap with his terrified horse. Though he would later take up the crown and lead his country, he fell in the depth of Minas Morgul and ended the line of kings without an heir.

Eärnur, the Last King of Gondor is a powerful duelist able to defeat enemy champions with ease, and is included in both mounted and unmounted forms cast from Forge World resin.

Aranarth & Argadir, Heroes of Arnor™ 

Preorders Aug24 MESBG Aranarth&Argadir

Aranarth is First Chieftain of the Dúnedain and leads his ranger kin into battle at the fringe of Arnor’s battle line, while Argadir charges at the speartip of the Knights of Arnor to smash the enemy head-on. Both characters are skilled battlefield leaders for their respective forces, and this set contains a total of three miniatures – Aranarth on foot, and Argadir both mounted and on foot – cast in Forge World resin.

Knights of Arnor™

Preorders Aug24 MESBG KnightsOfArnor

Arnor possessed a great many skilled knights, who were clad in the finest armour in the northern land and charged into battle on hardy steeds. This set contains two mounted knights armed with spears and shields, cast in Forge World resin.

Nazthák and the Shadow of Rhudaur™, Heroes of Angmar™ 

Preorders Aug24 MESBG NaztháHeroesOfAngmar

The orc chieftain Nazthák stretches the definition of ‘hero’ to its furthest extent, but this natural born scavenger is nonetheless a veteran of many battles who has a particular predilection for stealing equipment from fallen foes. In contrast, the mysterious spirit known as the Shadow of Rhudaur is a bold and relentless warrior enthralled into the Witch-king’s service, though none know their true origin or history.

Both miniatures are cast in Forge World resin.

Aldrac & Fráecht, Heroes of Carn Dûm™

Preorders Aug24 MESBG Aldrac&FráechtHeroesOfCarnDûm

Not all who march under the Witch-king’s banner are Orcs or monsters, as some Men swore allegiance to fight against their hated rivals in Arnor. Aldrac and Fráecht are two of the mighty Warlords who led their wildmen at Angmar’s behest – the former a powerful warrior pressessed of great natural strength, while the latter turned their devotion to the Witch-king into mystical chants that strengthened and invigorated their allies.

Both miniatures are cast in Forge World resin.

Warriors of Carn Dûm™

Preorders Aug24 MESBG WarriorsOfCarnDûm

While the warriors of Arnor clad themselves in fine armour and wield well-forged weapons, the Men of Carn Dûm make do with raw strength, ferocity, and a solid helping of moxie. Their sheer determination and will to fight makes them dangerous opponents on the battlefield, with this pack of six Forge World resin miniatures featuring four warriors armed with spears and shields plus a Captain and Standard Bearer.

Werewolves of Angmar™

Preorders Aug24 MESBG WerewolvesOfAngmar

Though shape-changers of all kinds exist throughout the lands of Middle-earth, the Werewolves who now serve Angmar have long been stuck in their feral, beastly forms. This is hardly a drawback, however, as their irrepressible bloodlust and fearsome combat prowess makes them ideal hunters for the Witch-king, and their hunger for flesh is so easily turned against the armies of Arnor.

This pack contains two miniatures cast in Forge World resin.
