Lord of the rings risk trilogy edition map

RISK: The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Edition takes you right to the end of the Third Age, when men, elves, dwarves, and all else on the side of good banded together to fight against the massive forces of Mordor as Sauron seeks to reclaim the One Ring while the Fellowship aim to throw it into the fires of Mount Doom from whence it came.

This is basically an expanded version of the original RISK: The Lord of the Rings game , with an additional board on the bottom of the original one, as well as new cards and revised rules for a better gameplay experience.

However, despite its similarities with the original RISK board game, this crossover plays quite differently. Among the additions to the original RISK: The Lord of the Rings game are a more complete map of Middle-earth that includes Gondor, Mordor, and Haradwaith, as well as additional Territory cards, Battalions, Adventure cards, and new rules to facilitate team play. Aside from that, all the materials are based from the entire Lord of the Rings film trilogy with all the well-designed game pieces, manual, and a replica of the One Ring which players are discouraged from wearing for obvious reasons.

The game is centered around the Leader pieces, which are three shield pieces per team. The places marked with gold icons on the map are Strongholds that provide defensive bonus and reinforcement bonus to owners. At the beginning of each turn, you may add an extra army in each of the Strongholds you control in on top of reinforcements.

Naturally, its awesome strength is much desired by those who wish for power. For a long time its wherabouts remained secret, but recently its power has been sensed again in the land of its creation.

The forces of evil are mounting a ferocious hunt to find The One Ring, while those of a gentler nature are keen to keep it from their reach. Enjoy, and have fun! Regardless of how many people are playing, you may choose to not use the Lord of the Rings rules and simply play a standard global domination game. For first-time players of any Risk game, it would be advisable to start with just the Standard Global domination style game rather than jumping right into the full rules of Lord of the Rings Risk.

Once you understand the basic mechanics of any standard Risk game, you can more easily learn the rest of the particulars of any other special interest Risk games like the Lord of the Rings Trilogy edition or the Star Wars editions, AD, Transformers Risk, etc.

Many fans were upset about the initial release of Risk: Lord of the Rings because it did not include the regions continents of Gondor and Mordor. This was odd because unlike normal Risk, in this game, certain players use "Forces of Evil" armies and others use "Forces of Good" armies: Gondor is the head "good" country and Mordor is the head "evil" country.

It was thought that the "Trilogy Edition", to be released a year after the first, would be something of an add-on pack, including only Gondor and Mordor and intended to be lined up with existing Risk sets. However, the "Trilogy Edition" was actually a large super-map, containing all the original regions as well as Gondor and Mordor. As a result, fans that bought the original edition were left with "incomplete" Risk maps and would have to buy an entirely new game if they wanted the "full" version, although Hasbro did offer them an add on for a fee.

An Expansion Set for the game was released, but only in Europe. This set adds a board with the remaining areas of the map to include Gondor, Mordor, and Haradwaith , along with additional units and cards for all 4 players yellow, green, black, and red. Also included is a bonus 2-player game centered on the siege of Minas Tirith with the play area for that on the reverse side of the board. This was also released in Explore Wikis Community Central.
