UPDATED RULES FOR PLAYING
EXPERIENCE-BASED CAMPAIGNS IN MIDDLE-EARTH
MORIA BATTLE COMPANY
At
the time of The War of The Ring, there were a number of Goblin holds across
the mountain ranges of Middle-earth. Most notable of these are the infestations
that exist in the Grey and Misty Mountains. Of these, their capital (although "capital" might
be too civilized a word) was in Gundabad, a forbidding mountain fastness from
which countless Goblin armies marched upon the Free Peoples of Middle-earth.
Years earlier, the Dwarves waged a war of revenge on Goblin-kind. They had
never been able to cleanse that place, and so within a short matter of time,
the Goblins had once again begun to spread their evil influence through the
mountains, caverns, and rocky places. Naturally, Dwarves are their enemy of
choice. Both choose to dwell beneath ground and love rocks, mountains, and
deep places. However, Goblins frequently make war on other races, for they
respect no one and enjoy making raids on whomever they can.
Essentially, Goblins are looters who strike out from hiding and inflict as much damage and steal as much plunder as they can. Then, with cunning and stealth, they slink off back to their lairs, earning prestige and wealth for their nefarious deeds.
A Note on Moria Goblins. Moria Battle Companies can be up to 25 models in size instead of the normal 15. However, Moria Goblins may not be promoted, so there is no promotion table for them. Instead, treat scores of 4-5 on the Warrior promotion table as "no effect." They may become Heroes as normal.
