PREPARE THE BATTLEFIELD

Ringwraith stalk theough OsigiliathOnce you gather your models, you'll need a place to play your games. Any sturdy tabletop will do. For terrain, you don't need much to start playing. You can keep it as simple as a piece of cloth draped over a pile of books for a hill and household items representing terrain. It's up to you how far you want to go from there. Well-built terrain really enhances the realism of your gameplay, and The Return of The King features pages of full colour terrain that'll inspire you to try your hand at creating your own. If you're really excited about making exquisite terrain, the Games Workshop web site or the Hobby Specialists at your nearby Games Workshop Hobby Center can teach you a wide variety of terrain building skills.

FIND AN OPPONENT

Finding an OpponentThe final piece of the puzzle you'll need is another player! There are many players of The Lord of The Rings around the globe. You can find them at your nearest Games Workshop Hobby Centre or Independent Stockist, both of which also host many gaming nights and other events where gamers abound. If those places aren't convenient, check around your area for local gaming clubs. You'd be surprised how many there are around the world. Finally, you can attend a Games Workshop event like Games Day or a Grand Tournament/Conflict. These events are always popular with players, and you'll likely find others from your region who are looking for gamers like you.
