How to Play the Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game - Part 2 - Heroes and Warbands

With the Morannon Orcs loose in Osgiliath, Damrod leads the Rangers of Ithilian to counter-attack! Games Workshop was kind enough to send me the new collection of models from the Battle of Osgiliath Starter Set and I'm working my way through the four mission Campaign from the box!
Stay posted to my socials for the next few weeks as I do some step by steps on the painting and the terrain. Let's dive in!

please keep the MESBG content coming!

[@UndeadKing_5150]

Characters don't count toward the bow limit unless that's been changed

[@thedisgruntledorc]

That scenario seemed designed to make the Gondor player feel good. Excellent illustration of why the bow limit is a thing though.

[@Mdhneo007]

Wow, learned not to use the box blue die. Great video again, most appreciated. Edit: don’t use blue die for shooting apparently.😂

[@sylntghost007]

Yes. My box is out for delivery today. Cant wait.

[@jonnyheenan]

Just bought this game and find these videos invaluably great

[@sitrucsimian5450]

Great seeing another of these middle earth sbg videos. Looking forward to the next one!

[@marcbowling6451]

Thank you for this series - please please keep up the MESBG stuff.

[@charlesa.7550]

This series has been amazing, cannot wait for the next one!

“His sense of duty was no less than yours, I deem. You wonder what his name is… where he came from. And if he was really evil at heart. What lies or threats led him on this long march from home. If he would not rather have stayed there… n peace. War will make corpses of us all.”

[@Mdhneo007]

Great job! Really appreciate these as a new player.

[@suri8984]

Loving the MESBG content!

[@marccaron6008]

Another great video. The rangers were deadly. I will play these missions solo like you do. Tx

[@mauton]

Your channel n33ds more mesbg.... u do a great job on what u have produced so far on it.

[@Clappincardboard]

The rangers make the men of Gondor look terrible lol. Redemption for the good guys this week!

[@euansmith3699]

So much heroic fun; the Rangers certainly got in the groove this time.

[@arkeonox9058]

Loving this serie of videos! Looking forward to the next episode 😊

[@brettbarker3287]

Just found these literally just got into the game.these are super helpful thanks ash

[@glitteringpony5121]

Great video to help me learn how to play! I’m excited to start an army. Where did you guys get the turn counter die? I haven’t seen it on any stl sites.

[@belrog905]

I'm loving these, can't wait for the next one! Who determines what fights happen first? Is it based on initiative?

[@overlordstcg2394]

Yes who has priority gets to decide how combat happens

[@Tareezo]

A couple of points about climbing; Climbing counts as difficult terrain, so halves movement. You need some way of actually climbing, so a miniature can't just fly up to a floor. You need a wall or something.

[@JoeBossRedSeven]

🤍🌲✨💞 MIDDLE-EARTH Boss out...

[@tomaszpulsakowski3512]

Love this video. Need more of them 😅. How did you paint the ruins? What white/grey colors did you use?

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

I’m doing a how to paint on them next week. Super simple

[@chrismckerron3691]

For Frodo!

[@euansmith3699]

Save Sam!

[@ElrohirGuitar]

You do a very good job of explaining and promoting this game. My dilemma is that I have a collection of Middle Earth models, but no Armies of Middle Earth book to know points values or army abilities. Since GW doesn't have this on their website, and no longer offers the book, I'm left in the dark. When I have tried to find it on Ebay, it has not been available. Is this information anywhere else on line? I don't plan on playing competitively, but I would like to have points to make fair games.

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

Looks like it’s available digitally and I was able to find it both on Amazon and from a bunch of online retailers? www.games-workshop.com/en-CA/Armies-Of-The-Lord-Of-The-Rings-ipad-2018

[@ElrohirGuitar]

@@GuerrillaMiniatureGames Thanks. I hadn't checked recently. I didn't want it digitally and I keep finding The Hobbit armies. I'll Keep checking. Your videos have got me pulling out my Pelennor Fields scenarios out to play while I'm waiting for my Osgiliath box. I appreciate the story that results from a skirmish game such as you presented.

[@MichaelHeilemann]

What battlemat are you using here? It's great for Gondor.

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

It’s a GameMat.eu cobbled mat I believe!

[@NewSquallor]

Starting to suspect the baddy dice and the goody dice are not perfectly balanced. :|

[@user-rn4fo7nw1x]

Thanks for the video, really helpful. Can I just ask, why is it that American & Canadian LOTR fans (who are clearly knowledgable about Tolkien’s works) consistently mispronounce “Sauron”? They will say Sau-ron like “Sore”-on rather than Sau as in “cow”? It’s not like it’s an unusual or difficult vowel sound in American/Canadian English - you say words like “how”, “now”, “wow” surely almost every day. It has always baffled me tbh. It is Sau-ron (Sau as in cow, not Sau as in Sore).

Non doveva cadere l'orco, aveva lo spazio per arretrare lateralmente

[@Nazgull2k1]

Heroes do not count towards bow model count.
