For Lord of the Rings picking up best RPG from InQuest.
It may not have been the best game Steve published last year in *my* opinion, but hey...:-)

Thanx, guys! Glad to hear the game's so popular with the InQuest readership.
Seeing as how it was based entirely on the books (at least as I wrote it), yes.I bet the RPG was better than the movies, eh Steve?

Congrats indeed.
I haven't actually seen the game myself -- OK, so I've seen it, I just haven't seen it in any great detail-- owing to a recent precipitous drop in available cash, but the reviews I've read seem to have been generally pretty positive.
So.... I don't suppose there are any plans for "HERO of the Ring"? Or "Middle Earth HERO"? Didn't think so

I'm pretty sure you're joking but yes, there are movies: one for each of the the books. The last movie will be out this December, if I'm not mistaken.Originally posted by Le Schtroumpf

I'm looking forward to it -- but I can't shake my trepidation either. From the very beginning, my Paranoia Sense has kept insisting Mr. Jackson is going to ruin my favorite moment of the entire trilogy == by replacing Eowyn with Arwen in the "no mortal man am I" scene.Originally posted by Tech

It's no FRED but I picked up the LotR game off of ebay and was quite impressed, I was originally turned off of buying it because of the movie tie ins for illustrations but it did a nice job of sticking to the books and pointing out the changes in the movie, I have since picked up a few other LotR products and they do the same providing stats and descriptions for both the movie and book where appropriate. I think they will be fine source books for RingHero.
Good work Steve.
For those of you griping about the new movies, don't make me pull out my VHS animated versions.
There were frogs there all right, thousands of them. Their voices beat the night, they boomed and barked and croaked and rattled. They sang to the stars, to the waning moon, to the waving grasses. They bellowed love songs and challenges.
