Tabletop Gaming  |  July 2022 [#68]
IN THIS ISSUE
We celebrate The Lord of the Rings on our tabletops in this special issue of Tabletop Gaming. There are few authors who have contributed so much to a single genre of fiction than Tolkien has to fantasy, and fewer better represented genres on our tabletops than fantasy. It could be argued that we wouldn’t even have Dungeons & Dragons without Tolkien. This month then we’re paying our respects with a look at all of the ways that The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit have made an impact on tabletop games over the years.
More of what’s in the issue:
• WAR OF THE RING – We talk to Francesco Nepitello about one of the most ambitious Lord of the Rings games of all time
• SIX-PAGE TOLKIEN TIMELINE – We round up (nearly) every Lord of the Rings adjacent game
• ROLEPLAYING IN MIDDLE-EARTH – Our guide to roleplaying anywhere from The Shire to Mordor
• JAPAN GAMES MARKET 2022 – We check the pulse of the gaming scene on the other side of the world.
• TWILIGHT INSCRIPTION – Can the famously mammoth-length
• PLUS, 27 GAMES REVIEWED – Including a two-page deep dive into Bardsung (is the adventure as big as the box?), Sniper Elite: The Board Game (a modern hidden movement classic in the making?), and First Rat (could be a sneaky sleeper hit?), as well as Rolling Realms, Now and Then, Dice Theme Park, Eternal Palace, and Get On Board!
And we have a special subscription deal this month, take out an annual subscription of Tabletop Gaming and get a Flesh & Blood booster box (24 booster packs). Stocks are limited for this offer, so act fast to secure your free gift.
