Welcome to: Lord of the Rings
Brought to you by Lx

HighlanderAttack was nice enough to offer 6 months Premium for the winner. I will do the same, so it's one year Premium for the winner!

We will be loosely following the story of the Lord of the Rings, by J.R.R. Tolkien.
Games based on certain events in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

show: requirements and notes


We play 12 rounds with 20 games in total. You may play up to 6 games at the same time. You get 1 point for every opponent beaten, bonus maps are double points. The player with the most points at the end wins. There is a 30 round cap on every game (*see note), no points will be awarded after round 30, except for the points you already earned in terminator games [edit] and games finished by the round limit feature. If you win a Terminator game because of the Round Limit Feature, you get the 5 points for the win, but not the points for the kills, unless you killed somebody before the round limit. [/edit]

*Note: Changed back from 50 to 30 because of the upgrade of the new round cap feature, which now has a choice of 20, 30, 50 or 100 rounds.

Total game count of 20 is correct.

You're a few points shy of 2000 (although, when you take your turns you take plenty points off me), but how can I refuse you when you offer 6 months Premium!

Actually, I'll match that, so it'll be one year Premium for the winner!

Thanks mate,

I'll put my name in now as a wannabe/reserve.

My scores are usually gyrating around 1700, but who knows? Maybe I'll get a lucky streak by the time I'm needed and be above 2000 at just the right time.
