The One Ring is found again
Wednesday 9 November 2016

In November 2016 we revived our October 2015
The One Ring Bundle, featuring
The One Ring™ Roleplaying Game from Sophisticated Games and
Cubicle 7 Entertainment based on
The Hobbit™ and
The Lord of the Rings™ by J.R.R. Tolkien. Just as it did in its sensational original run, this resurrected collection presented
everything you need for a campaign that evokes an authentic Tolkien atmosphere. And the supplements in this offer also support Cubicle 7’s
Adventures in Middle-earth Player’s Guide, the brand-new OGL rules set (not included in this offer).
Francesco Nepitello’s
The One Ring Roleplaying Game is set in the Wilderland five years after the Battle of Five Armies. Wilderland is the region both Thorin’s Company and the Fellowship traverse on their journeys. This land is filled with instantly recognizable locations (Mirkwood, Thranduil’s Halls, Lake-town, the Lonely Mountain, Dol Guldur) and characters (Radagast the Brown, the Elvenking Thranduil, King Bard of Dale, King Dáin of Erebor).

Of several licensed RPGs over the years based on Tolkien’s works,
The One Ring has drawn high praise for its effective evocation of Tolkien’s themes and atmosphere. The journey rules give the players the feeling their characters are embarking on an epic trek across Mirkwood or down the Anduin. Inventive Fellowship rules in the style of
King Arthur Pendragon and
Mouse Guard provide Heroes with the opportunity to rest and recuperate, to practice their skills or pursue a noble undertaking. But in every adventure there lies the insidious threat of
Shadow — the corruption of spirit and the destruction of hope. With its rich and detailed background information, character types unique to the world, and a setting that changes as the Tale of Years progresses,
The One Ring Roleplaying Game lets you really feel you’re playing in Middle-earth.

Our
