Lord of the Rings three player

Another three way game with Actually Quite Tall Now N and his dad.

I took Orcs, AQTNN had Easterlings and his Dad took Rohan.

My Wargs were soon engaging the riders of Rohan


As the Easterlings formed shieldwall


Rohan riders, gadding about


My cavalry raced off to meet the Easterling threat.


And were soon amongst them.


I had taken a Shaman. but as I have no real clue how to use magic in MESBG he's really just an expensive and not very good captain.


Still exploring the marsh.


The Warg chief cut down some riders and the foot soldiers swarmed the others.


The Kataphrakts were tougher nuts to crack.


Finally Theoden got to grips with the Easterlings.


the battle with the Wargs wore on.


I was running out of cavalry.


And Theoden too was running out of men.

Suddenly I reached break-point at my army very rapidly melted away, soon followed by the men of Rohan and the Easterlings held the field.

Good fun, if a little untaxing. I wonder if I can persuade AQTNN to give Midgard a go...?
