The expansion brings new armies and figures to the table, creating fresh possibilities for your War of the Ring battles. Ents, Dunlendings, Siege Towers, Catapults, Corsairs, and Southron Cavalry join the conflict, while Galadriel and the Balrog take the field with brand-new rules and strategies.

  • Use new rules to explore different strategies and expand the battlefield.

The companion game provides a dedicated way to refight the battles of Helm’s Deep and Minas Tirith. Its new gameboard and tactical rules give these sieges their own focused presentation, adding a distinct dimension to the broader War of the Ring system.

Whether you want to enhance your existing battles with additional forces or experience these landmark sieges at a closer scale, War of the Ring: Battles of the Third Age offers more figures, more strategic choices, and a complete new way to engage with the conflict.
