Title: 54mm LOTR - The Ambush At Amon Hen
Post by: sunjester on 11 November 2018, 11:23:03 PM
Years ago, when I was running a games shop I used to take participation game to wargames shows based around the Ambush at Amon Hen, where the Fellowship of the Ring finally disintegrated and Boromir was slain. The game used 54mm figures that had been produced by Britains for the release of Peter Jackson's trilogy of films. Whilst tidying up by loft storage the other day I can across the figures again and thought it would be fun to do something with them and Sellswords and Spellcasters would be the idea rules for a small scale skirmish.

Oh yeah, really nice. I didn't know they even made those figures. Are they rubber/hard plastic or metal. I have a few metal ones but don't remember who made them as I got them second hand.  But nicely done.
