The War of the Rohirrim tabletop game

To mark the recently adopted Hobbit Day, Games Workshop, the makers of Warhammer, have teamed up with Middle-earth Enterprises to unveil a new tabletop game reflecting the upcoming animated film The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim.

This board game appears to chronicle the battle between Rohan and the Hill Tribesmen, and comes in a set that includes 56 miniatures, a 12-sided die, a 3×3-foot double-sided play mat, two Rohan houses, a concise reference guide, a 48-page scenario and profile booklet and also a mega 176-page rulebook.

The tabletop title is officially known as The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim – Battle of Edoras, and Games Workshop has yet to reveal a release date or price for the set, but we are told to “stay tuned” for more information.
