THE LORD OF THE RINGS
In this scenario, the Kinstrife of Gondor has begun. As civil war consumes Gondor, the Gondorian King leads a force to oppose the rebels led by his Evil cousin.

STARTING POSITIONS
The Good player deploys his force within 12"/28cm of a board edge of his choice. The Evil player then deploys his force within 12"/28cm of the opposite board edge.
OBJECTIVES
The Evil player wins if the King is slain and the Good force is reduced to 50% or below. The Good player wins if the King's cousin is slain and the Evil force is reduced to 50% or below. Any other result is a draw.
TAKING IT FURTHER
Try increasing the size of both forces – particularly adding some Trebuchets to either side. Alternatively, the battle could be taking place on the great bridge as it burns – models taking a Strength 1 hit from the flames at the start of each Priority phase.
