Expansion set adds new twists and challenges
By Zack Davisson
"The Lord of the Rings: Expansion Board Game (Friends and Foes)" is an excellent supplement to an already enjoyable game. This game is not playable by itself, but requires the main "Lord of the Rings Board Game."

New rules, new boards and new cards are introduced increasing the challenge rating of the game, as well as increasing the overall feel of the game. Familiar and favorite characters like Tom Bombadil, Treebeard and Glorfindle find their way into the game.

Two new boards are introduced: Bree and Isengard, including all of the characters you would expect with these new scenarios. Each board has a sticker to add to the main timeline board, so that you know when to encounter them. Also introduced are 30 "Foe" cards. They add a new way to win or loose the game without completing Mordor.

If you enjoy "The Lord of the Rings Board Game," I am confident that you will also enjoy this Expansion Set.

A spectacular addition to a great game.
By Peter Ingemi
The Friends and foes expansion set adds three vital components to the LOTR game system.

1. It adds the Bree game board and events including Tom Bombadil (whose absense from the movie is painful)

2. It adds Isengard game board and events

3. It adds the many foes from the book really giving the game a new outlook.

Now in addition to all of the various problems you may already face now the wolf riders, the uruk-hai, and the cave-trolls add to your grief and the various foes appear to battle you. You must keep these foes in check as they sap your strength and allow Sauron time to grow ever closer. Defeat enough of them you might be able to avoid some of the great dangers that lie ahead altogeter, allow enough of them to plague you and you will be overwhelmed and defeated.

This is money well spent. If you own the game buy it!

Lord Sauron shows NO Mercy
By A Customer
Without the expansion, it is difficult enough for the four hobbits to make it to Mordor, but with this expansion comes an army of enemies to band against the players.

This game shows team players how to rely and work together, as they depend on the survival of the ring bearer to make it as far as possible.

One of the few games that allows for selfless acts and creates one goal for the players....the enemy is Sauron, NOT the other players.

Excellent game!!
