The Lord of the Rings™ Battle of Osgiliath is the first starter box for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game since the Battle of Pelennor Fields set released in 2018. This epic boxed game includes two complete armies representing the forces of Good and Evil as they do battle for the besieged city of Osgiliath.
While you will have to wait until Christmas to get your hands on this new starter set, we don’t want to make you wait to jump into the game. Which is why our next reveals are the perfect preludes to the Battle of Osgiliath box…
Are you looking to grow your army or take your first steps into the world of Middle-earth? These new Battlehost boxed sets are ideal for doing just that. With four Battlehosts available, each containing a range of miniatures for either Isengard, Minas Tirith, Mordor, or Rohan. There’s plenty inside to start playing games of the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game with friends or to get you ready for the release of the Battle of Osgiliath box.
As soon as the Battlehosts arrive, you’ll be able to get playing straight away with a free download of the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game rules to pitch the four sets against each other.
Arguably the greatest warrior that resides in Rivendell, Glorfindel's skill and swiftness with a blade was unmatched by any Elf in the Third Age, including Lord Elrond. Even the dreaded Nazgûl recoiled from the mighty Elf lord and dared not face him openly.
The Galadhrim Court was famed throughout Lothlórien. Only the most noble of the Galadhrim were honoured with becoming a warden of Caras Galadhon. Each warrior promoted to the role of Guard of the Galadhrim Court was not only a formidable fighter, but could also trace their noble lineage back to the earliest days of Middle-earth.
Then there are Rúmil and Orophin, two Elven brothers both exquisitely talented with the sword. One fights defensively behind his ornate shield, while the other is a whirlwind of attack, wielding twin blades in battle.
One of the great heroes of Middle-earth, Elrond is getting not one but two new models, both mounted and on foot, in the intricate and ornate armour he wore during the War of the Last Alliance. As a great Elven Hero, he is accompanied by a loyal High Elf bannerman bearing the banner of Gil-galad.
And with that, the Middle-earth™ Strategy Battle Game Preview Online draws to a close. These are exciting times for Middle-earth™ fans, and there’s much more to come!
