Another great report! I must admit, the lighting was a little sore on the eyes. Plus, it would have been nice to see a variety of different perspectives in the pictures instead of ones that are so focused on the characters. It would have been nice to appreciate your gorgeous board throughout the game as well! Can't wait for the next installment. |

I just had a thought. At Amon Hen the Uruk's goal is to capture the hobbits rather than kill them and bring them to Saruman. All the Uruk's know is that they're short/halflings. For this battle would it best to mix the hobbits up so that the evil side doesn't know which one is the ring-bearer (but the good side does obviously) so if they do get away with any of the hobbits they won't know if it's the right one until the end! Might be a terrible idea, but it might work. |

Hi TDrik and welcome to the OR! Your idea is a good one - obviously, the evil player knows which is Frodo, but the evil models don't, so some kind of a meta rule is needed (i.e. Uruks try to capture any and all hobbits, with no special bias towards Frodo). However, Frodo has a surefire way to avoid capture, too - he can always wear the Ring until he reaches the boats and gets to freedom. That's the way we will play, so Frodo's escape is virtually guaranteed. The other three are potential capture targets, and hence my painting of "captured Sam" as well. Overall, we are happy to utilize such meta rules to ensure playing in the spirit of the story rather than playing in a more competitive way for victory... |

Got excited upon seeing an update, (obviously) wasn't disappointed. Terrific, once again. |

Your campaign is fantastic Celevue. Can't wait for Balin's Tomb. I am also very excited to see what you have planned for the battles not covered by the films, such as the Battle of Erebor, shame I have to wait so long for that... |

Lovely set-up, lighting and photography. The spray kicked up as Gandalf was ensnared looks brilliant! You're very good to give me so much credit for help with the scenario design, but honestly not necessary. It was just a pleasure to be of help. |

What an amazing terrain board. I really like how you explained your own scenario at the end. |

Great stuff, you've set the bar high for us to aim towards, and have inspired me to make a better 'watcher board' than I had intended! Kudos! |

Thanks for comments, all! @ukfreddybear, my thoughts exactly - this is for us, too, what this game is all about. @emre43, Erebor is not that far - mere three years or so from now I should be busily building the terrain for it, and painting all the dwarves... at least with the upcoming blu-ray set, I don't need to sculpt the guard statues! @Scott, looking forward to your Watcher terrain, and how the journeybook scenario plays out. Had Frodo bought it at Amon Sûl in our campaign, the plot forward would have been very different (and I wouldn't now have that fine Amon Hen board)... |
