No other reviews, comments? Where's Novelty when you need him- I'm sure he could find plenty of things for me to fix up  |

You suggested you weren't completely satisfied with the Lothlorien tile. Is this still the case? Could you possibly post a larger picture of it so that I can get a better look at it?...It may be easier for me to give a suggestion of what you could improve. As far as the other tiles, I think they look pretty good. The only one I'm not necessarily keen on is the Rivendell tile. I don't mind the usage of a church, but I feel like the tile could possibly use a little water...and some sort of elevation. Other than that, I think you did a nice job. I look forward to seeing how it all plays!  |

I don't have a bigger picture, sorry. I guess I'm still not completely satisfied with it, but I guess I'll get by. I'll see if I can put some water into the Rivendell tile, but remember it's in a Valley, so that might be a bit hard for me to draw...

Well, I've put some water onto the Rivendell tile, which I think wraps up the tiles, but not neccesarily the rules. I'll wait a little longer before I call them finished.  I've also done the tiles for the Two Towers, but I'm not ready to do the rules and create a thread. Just a preview of the expansion:  Merit point for the first person to identify 6 of the quest tiles. |

I don't really care about merit points, but I do like challenges. My guesses are:
1 - Dead Marshes
2 - Minas Ungol
3 - Something Rohan-y?
4 - Edyn Muril (totally spelled that wrong)
5 - Fangorn Forest
6 - Edoras
7 - Helm's Deep
8 - Osgiliath

4/8
Anyone else care to give it a shot? (I'm not saying which ones were wrong/right)

All right, 5/8.
For anyone else who cares to give it a shot; here's a hint: the first 4 are Frodo and Sam's journey...

Once again, if no one else has anything to say then this could become 1.0...

I understand the Black Tower and the White Tower tiles, but what are the three tiles at he bottom?
Isn't Shelob part of the second book? I can't remember.

The second set of 12 tiles is for the second book. He's using the one thread for the trilogy, at least I believe he is. That probably wasn't the intention but it seems to work. |

No, I'm going to have separate threads, but I'm not starting a new one until I wrap up LotR1 and R&G. I was just impatient to show the tiles from LotR2. None of the tiles have Shelob/ Cirith Ungol on them (and incidently, you mentioned the white tower, it's actually nowhere in particular, but a gift tile (I'll explain that in the rules). The other three tiles contain maps, of which certain pieces can be obtained to give rewards... |

No other reviews, comments? Where's Novelty when you need him- I'm sure he could find plenty of things for me to fix up For your 1.0 revision, could you 1. Spell out in full Lord of the Rings please 2. Change "discard" to "set aside" (throughout the document) and note in the Preparation section that the tiles will not be used in the game. Discard has the connotation that it is to be thrown away (e.g. into the bin, which would be a waste for a fan-made tile ). 3. Clarify that "The first quest tile drawn may be placed anywhere" in accordance to the normal rules of Carcassonne, or otherwise. That's about it! |

Gents not wanting to pee on anyones bonfire here but please be careful with this as Gamws Workshop own the rights to LoTR and are very protective of it so any references to the realm that they find being used without their consent they tend to shutdown very quickly. So please watch out when doing this when freely distibuting.
