Progress is being made, I just need to make unit counters for the Elves, and character tokens for the Fellowship, and last the big one, unit counters and character tokens for Mordor and its Easterling and Haradrim allies.

On a side note, I never realized just how truly poorly positioned Rohan was at the start of the War of the Ring, even without wormtongue doing a mind whammy on Theoden, Rohan is just not prepared for an invasion from Isengard.

Still working on everything for my game, tentatively titled Where the Shadows Lie or alternatively The Listless Eye. Crunching through character tokens, all the major players you'd expect, but I'm open to suggestions for minor characters anyone thinks should be included.

For example I've already made Halbarad leader of the Grey Company, and added him as a minor character for the Western Allies. He activates for the Free People's following a special event.

Another example is Cirdan the Shipwright, if the Free People's moves the Fellowship/Ring Bearer into his starting hex they get a nice ship to take them down the coast. This gives the Free People's an incentive to move the Ring Bearer west towards the Grey Haven instead of east towards Rivendell.

Another example is the Orc Commander Sharku (not in the books I know) of Isengard/The Shadow in the East., who has a special ability that allows him to do more damage with Warg Rider units under his command.

If you have a minor character suggestion, feel free to let me know.

The War of the Ring is upon us, the Free People's gather their defenses, and you make your preparations to claim dominion over Arda once and for all.
