LOTR - Agreed Campaign Operations

AGREED CAMPAIGN OPERATIONS

Use the Overview of the 3rd Age of the LOTR document on the website to generate battles
Use the base size for troops of 40mm frontage or for larger models, multiples of 40mm frontage. Heroes on foot will be based on 20mm by 20mm bases & mounted Heroes on 20mm by 40mm bases, with larger Hero on a 40mm frontage
Army sizes will be based on the max. number of troops available per realm, as shown in the Army Lists, not based on points or base numbers
The ratio for figures in field battles & sieges is 50:1, with each Hero being determined based on who or what they are. The ratio for figures in Skirmish games is 1:1
Use either the Modified Midgard Heroic Battles rule set or the MESBG rule set for all Skirmish games
For each battle, it is the Lead Heroes choice to bring whatever of their troops they wish to, although a minimum of 1 base of troops MUST left behind to protect the Homeland realm
Only allow a Hero to die in battle, if they die in that battle in the LOTR books. Otherwise if deemed dead in any battle, remove them from the battlefield as injured, losing any influence they had but able to return fully fit in a future
As a group, we will select the battles to play, in sequence, so that some Battles may stay unplayed, but we will all move together as we progress through the Campaign
Each Player will have their maximum army shown on their Player Page, from the beginning of the Campaign. If losses in battle are not recovered by the time of the next battle, those lost troops will be unavailable for the next battle
The Agreed Rule Sets for our Large/Medium filed battles & all Sieges will be based upon a modified version of Midgard Heroic Battles rules
As each game is completed, the Army Lists will be updated & shown on these webpages. No Realm can ever have more than its maximum troop numbers, than those show on the first Army List shown on these web pages
