  • Has anyone played the Parker/Hasbro Lord of the Rings board game?

    I've not got the hang of it yet. It's especially hard when you get all six event tiles turning up on the first few moves of a scenario.

    Isn't it Risk with a different map?

      If you mean LOTR Risk, then yes I have. It's quite fun. Plays a little differently than regular Risk.

        No, but I see the Risk-based one you must mean. This one doesn't have a map, and is an event-driven 'move up the track' game, rather than a military strategy game.

            No, but it looks cool. Take us through how it plays.

              yeah, a couple times

              it is decent, but not something that you will play over and over again

                I have played it, but it was many years ago. I seem to remember it being alright, though not particularly memorable.

                  My girlfriend swears by this game. Its far too random for my tastes. Give me TALISMAN any time.
