The new Games Workshop miniature range - approve? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

As an enthusiastic hoarder of all things 3-dimensional associated with Tolkien, the news of the forthcoming release of the GW LotR tabletop battle game and accompanying miniature range was music to my ears. Personally, I can't wait for what is liable to be the definitive collection of miniatures to come out and I'm also really excited at the prospect of running some of my own tabletop battles set in Middle earth. This belies a certain need to control things rather to my own fancy I admit, but all the same I'm dead excited about Christmas this year, which I haven't been for a long time let me tell you. I wonder if anyone else is as sad as me and has as many sleepless nights as I do, thinking about colour codes for tiny armies and dreaming of the contents of the Bridge at Khazad-Dum boxed set? Does anyone think that it's just another pointless cash-in and wish there were no forthcoming movies to inspire such wonders? Does anyone else feel it's about time we had a decent ME-related tabletop to put paid to some of the shameful RPGs that have cast gloomy shadows over our much-loved realms? Feel free to laugh at me: it's about to become my life for the next few years. If you're interested to hear more go to: <a href="mailto: www.games-workshop/lotr"> www.games-workshop/lotr</a>
