Free League Publishing | "Now they had gone on far into the Lone-lands, where there were no people left, no inns, and the roads grew steadily worse. Not far ahead were dreary hills, rising higher and higher, dark with trees. On some of them were old castles with an evil look, as if they had been built by wicked people."

 

Adventures awaits you in Middle-earth, soon the time has come to explore the lands and live to tell the tales. Free League Publishing today announced that the epic expansion Tales From the Lone-Lands for the multiple award-winning The One Ring™ RPG will be officially released on November 14.

On the same date, the 5E version of the expansion, Tales From Eriador, for The Lord of the Rings™ Roleplaying 5E, will be released alongside Ruins of Eriador, the 5E version of the previous The One Ring™ expansion Ruins of the Lost Realm.

All three volumes are now available for pre-order in the Free League webshop and gives immediate access to the PDFs, ahead of the official release.

  • Not To Strike Without Need and Wonder of the Northern World follow the slow infiltration of spies of the Enemy. 

  • The Quest of Amon Guruthos challenges the heroes to battle an ancient evil.


All the adventures in the expansion assume that the time frame is the years around 2965.


Ruins of Eriador is a 5E adaptation of the previously published Ruins of the Lost Realm and includes:

 

  • Chapter 1: Fog Over Eriador offers a description of the regions that once were part of the kingdom of Arnor, with a focus on the city of Tharbad.

  • Chapter 2: A Gathering Storm provides the Loremaster with a set of narrative elements aimed at building a possible future for the land of Eriador as a whole, including the description of many looming threats, Loremaster characters and their agendas.

  • Chapter 3: Landmarks adds twelve sites of interest in the style of the one presented in the core volume. These locations depict both ‘historical’ sites mentioned in The Lord of the Rings™ or The Hobbit™, and others that have been created specifically for the game.
