New Edition of Middle-earth™ Strategy Battle Game Coming Soon

We’ve seen a host of new reveals for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game in the past few months, in the run-up to the Rise of Angmar supplement – from the noble Knights of Arnor and doomed king Eärnur, to the vicious Orc scavenger, Nazthák.

But if you thought that was the biggest news of the year, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Today we can reveal that something special for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game is just around the corner.

Six years after the release of The Lord of the Rings™ Battle of Pelennor Fields, a whole new edition of the game is galloping towards us.

It’s a very exciting time for fans of The Lord of the Rings™ and The Hobbit™, who can look forward to refreshed and updated rules for the game and their armies.

There’ll be a shiny new rules manual to go with the new edition, as well as new supplements for Armies of The Lord of the Rings™ and Armies of The Hobbit™, each of which will contain the rules for the miniatures from the respective movie trilogies. Every profile has been reworked so that units and characters’ actions and on-screen presence are even better represented on the tabletop, and your adventures in Middle-earth feel exactly as they should.

We’ll have loads more to share in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to Warhammer Community for all the latest updates.

What else does the future hold for Middle-earth? Well, we couldn’t possibly speculate….
