Who is going to rule Middle Earth?
As you all probably know, in the last battle for Middle Earth Aragorn and his friends and allies defeated Sauron after The Ring was destroyed. Well, guess what: Sauron forged a new ring and is threatening to take over the rule of Middle Earth again. This tournament will represent the battle between the Army of Sauron and the Army of Aragorn. The winning army will rule Middle Earth (until the next battle)!
