The Misty Mountains have ever been home to evil things. From the malicious Goblins that prey on unsuspecting Dwarves, to the colossal might of the Balrog of Morgoth, the Mines of Moria are a dangerous place to be at the best of times.

This 48-page Sourcebook for The Lord of the Rings contains all the rules you'll need to field an army from Moria and Angmar (including Goblins, Trolls, Dragons, Undead spirits and the mighty Balrog), as well as detailed background information and scenarios.
