I've heard good things about 'Divine Right', but haven't played it yet (I have the 25th Anniversary Edition).

What about SPI's LotR games?



I played DR. It wasn't terribly impressed one way or the other, but only played it opposed.

SPI's War of the Ring was a big disappointment to me (back in the day even). The pure character
game was ok, but the military game didn't have the proper tension. ICE'S Fellowship of the Ring is
better at the character game, and FF's WotR is better than the SPI design. Haven't tried Sauron
or Gondor - definitely am interested in Gondor though; I like sieges.

Speaking of which, TSR's Battle of Five Armies was pretty crappy. I'd like to try the ICE
game of the same name.

Didn't SPI also have a quad wargame covering 4 LotR battles? Or did I hallucinate that?
