Pán prstenů: Kruh konfliktu

Product detailed description

An epic roll & write game set in the iconic universe of Middle-earth!

It is the Third Age of Middle-earth, and a grand war consumes the land. In The Lord of the Rings: Circle of Conflict, you command both the forces of the Free Peoples and the armies of the Shadow simultaneously.

Featuring a unique "circle of conflict" mechanic: your Free Peoples battle the Shadow of the player to your left, while your Shadow seeks to crush the Free Peoples of the player to your right! Will you guide the Fellowship in secrecy all the way to Mount Doom, or will the Eye of Sauron prevail and plunge Middle-earth into corruption?

GAMEPLAY & MECHANICS

The game is played in simultaneous rounds using the shared results of 8 custom dice.

1. Dual-Front Battles (Roll & Write + Dice Drafting):

   • The active player rolls the Middle-earth dice and any unlocked Nation dice.

   • All players use the same dice pool concurrently—assigning part of the result to their Free Peoples board and part to their Shadow board.

2. Hidden Fellowship Movement vs. Shadow Hunt:

   • Free Peoples: Spend Resolve to secretly trace the Fellowship's path across Middle-earth, moving from the Shire through Rivendell or Moria towards Mount Doom.

   • Shadow: Spend Hunt icons to track down the opponent's Fellowship, inflicting Corruption and breaking their resolve.

3. Recruiting Armies & Legendary Characters:

   • Motivate neutral nations (Gondor, Rohan, Elves, Mordor, Isengard, Haradrim & Easterlings) to unlock additional custom dice for subsequent rolls.

   • Deploy key lore characters—Gandalf can cancel a successful Shadow hunt, Legolas and the Witch-king add massive battle power, and Saruman transfers forces between battle fronts.

4. Climactic Battles & End Conditions:

   • Muster troops on shared battle boards. When a battle triggers, army strength combined with character abilities determines the victor.

   • The game ends immediately if the Fellowship reaches Mount Doom, the Corruption track is filled, or both major battles are resolved. The player with the highest total victory points wins!
