About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for another adventure in Middle-earth with 'The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game – Conflict at the Carrock'! This expansion is the second Adventure Pack in the 'Shadows of Mirkwood' cycle and throws you back into the relentless pursuit of Gollum. This time, heroes venture along the banks of the Anduin River, but the tranquility is broken by whispers of a new, approaching threat.

Featuring 60 fixed cards, 'Conflict at the Carrock' continues the saga, introducing a new hero to join your cause, along with new player cards and an unprecedented Encounter deck. The new player cards offer a range of options to power up your decks, featuring both familiar faces and novelties that will surprise you. Imagine Frodo feeling the restlessness of the Shire, while the Beornings offer help to drive away troublesome Trolls, or a Long-beard Mapmaker discovering a Dúnedain Warning that might be the key to avoiding defeat.

This pack is perfect for those who already enjoy the base game and want more cooperative and narrative challenges. Hand management remains crucial, requiring strategic decisions to overcome the obstacles Middle-earth throws your way. If you're a fan of fantasy-themed card games and love delving into epic stories, this expansion will keep you hooked from start to finish. Prepare your decks and good luck on your journey!
