Welcome to Middle-earth and its strategic board game War of the Ring.

Players take part in the battle between the armies of the Free Peoples and the heroic Companions of the Fellowship of the Ring against the dark hordes of the Shadow and the powerful Servants of the Dark Lord.

In one game of War of the Ring, the player controlling the Shadow attempts to conquer Middle-earth using military superiority.

Under his command, he gathers Sauron's legions of Orcs and Trolls, the forces of the wizard Saruman, and the hordes of Suderons and Orientals, to cover the West in darkness.

In the face of this onslaught, the Free Peoples player leads an alliance of Elves, Dwarves, Horsemen of Rohan, Men of Gondor, and Men of the North: a fragile union trying to defend the last free realms of Middle-earth and buy precious time to enable the success of the Ringbearers' Quest.

As the armies clash, the nine Companions of the Fellowship of the Ring travel to the heart of the Dark Lord's domains - Mount Doom - in order to destroy the One Ring in the Mountain of Fire.

Controlled by the Free Peoples player, the Fellowship is his real chance to win, with the Shadow military forces being defeated along with their master if the Ring is defeated.

But the Quest faces increasing dangers as the Darkness spreads across Middle-earth...

In the end, only one side will be victorious.
