Hi,

Has anyone used Warhammer Ancient Battles with any requisite amendments for fighting Lord of the Rings massed battles?

If so, what changes did you make?

I would try to put something together myself but I'm rubbish at tinkering with rules :'(

Not something I ever looked at :(

When we did a LoTR show game we used GW's Battle rules for LoTR. They were pretty good and worth a look if still available.

[EDIT: Can't seem to find it. It's a shame if it died as it enabled you to use the Strategy game minis ranked up on multibases]

actually see if you can find the battle of 5 armies rules that they did to go with some lovely figures.

Warmaster is a good go-to for large scale battles in the GW vein.

Same system as BoFA.

Browsing the forum I had a WTF moment when rereading this thread.
If you want to use WAB for fantasy surely the obvious thing, that we all missed :fp: would be to use Warhammer Fantasy rules?
