UPDATED RULES FOR PLAYING
EXPERIENCE-BASED CAMPAIGNS IN MIDDLE-EARTH
STEP FIVE: INFLUENCE
Influence represents the patrons of the various companies sending reinforcements and support to the Heroes leading them. The more victories the company gains, the more a patron will offer them aid. Influence is measured with Influence points. Companies always receive 2 Influence points for playing a scenario.

You may use Influence in one of three ways. First, you may use it to roll on the Influence table for your chosen company. It costs 3 Influence points for each roll you make on the table. The second way to use Influence points is to adjust the roll you make on the Influence table. Each additional point you spend can adjust the score up or down by one per Influence point spent. Third, you may purchase additional equipment at the cost indicated in your chosen company's equipment options. Players are free to spend Influence points immediately or store them for later use. Players may purchase additional weapons and equipment for Heroes and Warriors from the armoury and the equipment lists with Influence points. All members of a Battle Company must be modelled with the correct weapons and equipment. Warriors may be armed with any wargear available to them in their entry section in The Lord of The Rings rules manual and its supplements. Heroes are not bound by this restriction and may make any purchases their race's equipment options allow.
