The War of the Ring 2nd Edition board game is a strategy game for 2 to 4 players, themed around the War of the Ring. Players take control of the Free Peoples or the armies of the Shadow. At first, the Free Peoples are reluctant to fight Sauron and must either be attacked or persuaded by Gandalf or other Companions; the Political Track shows whether each nation is ready to fight.
Victory can be achieved through military dominance by capturing a certain number of the opposing side’s cities and strongholds. Meanwhile, the Fellowship of the Ring attempts to secretly reach Mount Doom to destroy the One Ring, while Sauron’s forces search for it throughout Middle-earth. The quest faces dangers described in the rules for “The Hunt for the Ring.”
