Ok folks, let’s face it ; ) There are a lot of serious gamers out there! There has also been a serious dearth of LOTR inspired games for many years. Now that The Fellowship of the Ring is out, we’ve been treated to many new games in several genres. In light of all the enthusiasm out there, we’ve asked several folks in to give us the latest information on their games: what they are, how they are played, what kind of tournament action is available, collector’s information, and perhaps even some demonstrations and tips. We hope you’ll drop by one of our gaming sessions and see what exciting new games are out there. [More]

Welcome to Tolkien’s Middle-earth! We’ve got a fantastic schedule of events lined up this year and hope you’ll drop by to visit. We are welcoming back the founders of TheOneRing.net and our Elvish lingustics experts, as well as introducing many new sessions, including one about the new ballet based upon the story of Beren and Luthien. We’ll be posting more information on the specific sessions as soon as possible. Up-to-date schedule information for this programming track can be found [here].
To borrow a term from TheOneRing.net, this track is forged by fans for fans. We’d not be able to do it without you! If you have suggestions for a panel topic or programming event that you’d like to see at the track, or would like to participate in one of the panels, we want to hear from you. Just e-mail Jincey with your thoughts.
