Hi. Im Chris, Im 29 and I live in Leeds in the UK. I have been a gamer for some years now although took a break for a few years during my late teens and early twenties. I got back into the hobby about 4 years ago but for some reason never played the Lord of the Rings. Recently re-reading the trilogy and the release of War of the Ring has changed all that though...

Welcome to the One-Ring, the greatest gaming site of our times! (and the friendliest one!)

A few quick tips....
You'll want to pick up the "One-Ring Survival Handbook." ASAP. If you can't find a copy, be sure to carefully do the below.

1. Avoid treading on the tails of Dorthonions. They're quick-tempered, obsessive collectors and none too sane.

2. Avoid getting the moderators mad. They're Sauron's finest, a black-hearted band of wraiths. And one is a Balrog!

3. Be sure to write BAAAZOOKA (except with one A ) in the chatbox every time you sign in.

4. Have fun!

Welcome to the One-Ring.

I am the Director of Middle-earth Artillery, Fortifications and Munitions, hence my prolific use of The B a z o o k a. The chief purpose of The B a z o o k a is the defenestration of goblins and irritating a certain Balrog (speak not his name).

Seriously though, I like your painting skills - those mini pics you posted are marvellous. Welcome to the site!

That trilogy is a masterpiece, isn't it? I've been slowly reading it again for a few weeks now - great stuff. :D

Welcome to the site, and to LotR. :wink:

Welcome to the one ring. Enjoy this marvelous sight.


If you say Dorths favourite word three times a balrog will appear. (just like beetlegeuse)

Wow Kezza, you really are keen to admit that.

Anyway welcome to the site, this is a great community and we'll solve any problems you have, we have some great Moderators too (but annoy them and you get a visit from a Nazgul). :wink:
