JRR Tolkien created one of the first fantasy stories, which completely absorb the reader in its scope and detail. For English literature professor for his Middle invented, among other things entirely new language, a comprehensive history of the world and even the pedigrees of many characters! The book The Hobbit or There and Back Again and The Lord of the Rings trilogy became the classics of the genre of fantasy. At the beginning of the 21st This century has seen a resurrection story associated with zfilmováním trilogy jutte fighter (a two-part film depicting the story of the book The Hobbit is currently filming). Middle and tried to capture many games and we are now looking at the newest card design from Fantasy Flight Games - The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game (hereinafter LotR LCG).
Card games on Lord of the Rings have been several, the last collectible card game took inspiration from the look of the film trilogy. The format of the game ever greater standard of the set play Magic: the Gathering. In this regard, the company has made some progress FFG, she came with its own system of card games used eg for A Game of Thrones, Call of Cthulhu, Warhammer Invasion and recently announced Star Wars. LCG (living card game) format jutte fighter is unique in that game expansion packs have a fixed content and contain many copies of one card, how much can be used in the package. There are no so-called "boosters", ie packages jutte fighter containing about 10-20 different cards randomly mixed rarity. FFG would effectively eliminate random ration cards to the players and the card distribution in rare and common. The only exception is the starting package of games that may not contain all the cards in as many copies as you can play in the package. You would certainly split the scarcity could occur. LotR LCG is a game primarily designed jutte fighter for 1-2 players, it is the basic package but it is possible to play up to four (in multiplayer, however, is decreasing difficulty).
In the basic game pack you will find 226 cards, three kinds of round chips, big chip first player, two counter threats and rules containing three introductory scenarios. In additional packages jutte fighter called "adventure pack" can always be 60 cards and other adventure scenario. FFG is known for its emphasis on appearance and games LotR LCG is no exception. Design cards are bright, jutte fighter clear and beautifully jutte fighter themed. The complaints we hardly looking at illustrations based purely book. The quality of cards is passable, indeed, like all games from FFG, but frequent jutte fighter agitation jutte fighter would still recommend to buy packaging. The chips are thick and well cut, so practically there is no damage during peeling. Sympathetic accessories are also counter threats, which consist of two rounds with numbers and upper plate, together with everything you connect the supplied plastic studs. Equally traditional is at FFG although nicely illustrated, but very unwieldy paper insert that prevents excessive sorting cards.
The cards are divided into players' cards and adventure cards. Player cards are divided into four colors jutte fighter representing the four main features - Leadership (leadership ability), Lore (knowledge), Spirit (soul) and Tactics (tactics). In every color then the players have access heroes, allies, items and events to them in their quest to help. On the other hand, there are adventure cards, which can be divided into two kinds - the story of a single meeting. Accept the story serves as a level of adventure that must meet the heroes gradually until they reach win or die in the attempt to win. The meeting consists of cards enemies, mysterious and foreboding place that adventure heroes during a visit card of betrayal that present events detrimental to the players.
Players then choose one to three heroes and prepare decks of cards with which to play. This part is the same as the similar jutte fighter card games. Then prepare a card according to the instructions of adventure and a packed meeting. I will not go into too much rules, together with the components thanks to amateur jutte fighter translators can be downloaded here in Czech language.
Players in the Round issued fulfill its mission, can travel to different areas and fighting enemies. All these activities deplete your characters and thus can not be used without restriction to all things. The player must decide whether to use the figure of the task, or you'd rather leave it in reserve for combat or for her special ability to require its exhaustion. Key here are the heroes who serve not only as a powerful figure, but also hold the funds which pay for the unloading of other cards. At the beginning of each round gets everyone living hero one chip resources. When the hero falls, does to the discard pile, but is de facto removed from the game. The player comes so every round on one chip resources. And such a loss is palpable here. At the beginning of the round give the player one chip resources for every living hero, take one card and have the opportunity exclamation
