Game Summary

Publisher blurb:

The One Ring: Adventures over the Edge of the Wild is the new roleplaying game based on The Lord of the Rings—the most influential property in fantasy. It's set after the events of The Hobbit; the initial game is set the region of northern Mirkwood and environs, with future releases expanding the scope of the setting to encompass more of Middle-earth as the era moves closer to the looming War of the Ring.

Chock full of incredible artwork by leading Tolkien artists, including John Howe, along with rich and detailed background information, The One Ring's game engine focuses on the themes and character types that give Middle-earth its unique place in the annals of fantasy. There has never been a Lord of the Rings game that's more evocative of Tolkien's unique vision.

The One Ring: Adventures over the Edge of the Wild releases in August, 2011. The core release consists of two core books in a premium slipcover: Loremaster’s Book for GMs and Adventurer’s Book for players.

5 + 4Travire. A stunningly presented and produced game that details an original rules system emphasising roleplaying and character over tactics and power gaming. It should be a delight to all fans of Middle Earth.
5 + 5jamesrbrown. The One Ring deserves the highest marks in both style and substance. It immerses you into Middle-earth like no other game before, taking you on perilous journeys to encounter iconic characters and to combat growing numbers of Shadow! I have not been this excited about playing a game since I was ten.
