    So entertaining. But what I love most is the good sportsmanship and comraderie.

    as a fellow collectors edition owner i should remind you that you need to be extremely careful with the lid you must not raise it over 90 degrees and it can easily break or get scratched

      Well, it was a dining space off the main living area, and it was a rental now long gone, but yeah, it was nice!

    Huzzah! So nice to see the CE in action. I hope to bring mine to the table in 2017, too.

    Great game! The minis look fantastic. Did they come painted in this edition?

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 7 lety +2

      Yes they did. Though I'd already painted all the leaders and heroes from my normal edition to a higher standard so I replaced those with mine.

    So in this version of the Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship immediately gets spotted, Aragon just peaces the fuck out on them, then goes and gets his ass murdered.

    With so many views, I'd expect the likes to be much higher than they are.

    What are the card holders you’re using for your hand? They are pretty cool

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 4 lety

      They're from Memoir '44, however they kept falling over and I ended up making my own which are much better. Check out this video: czcams.com/video/qRaqUwxtloc/video.html

    Where did you get your table? I want a big table to fit games comfortably

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 6 lety +3

      Easy. Two 3x4 feet pieces of MDF sitting on top of a normal table, to make a 6x4 feet surface area.

    What card sleeves are you using?

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 7 lety

      I bought them years ago, but ... let me use the wonderful tool that is Google search ... are here we are: www.maydaygames.com/products/wotr-ce-card-sleeves

    • @srdjankalanj8736
      @srdjankalanj8736 Před 7 lety

      And what about storage? I assume everything fits the box nicely in the CE, but sleeved cards are out of the question for the economic edition(s); I see you own the expansion. Dump the insert or an outside box?

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 7 lety

      The sleeved cards go in the metal tin that Ares produced with the upgraded cards - unfortunately sleeved cards don't fit in the CE box. I keep the expansions in their separate boxes.

      If you're looking for the collectors edition, you'll find (if you find one for sale) that it's going for the same price as a used car. There are 2000 of these...on Earth. BUT....the game is awesome. I have the poor man's edition, and it's still a big bad ass epic game.

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 5 lety +3

      Indeed - I was fortunate that someone in Sydney wanted to sell theirs, so I grabbed it - for what seemed an outrageous price at the time, but now seems a fantastic deal. The jewel of my collection!

    did you guys painted them? the figures

    • @EsotericOrderGamers
      @EsotericOrderGamers  Před 5 lety +1

      I painted the leaders and characters from my first 2nd edition set, and the rest are prepainted Collector's Edition figures. Will has painted his rank and file but I gave him my prepainted leaders and characters. Complicated huh?

      Without Gondor there is no need for military - Sauron will focus his eye on you Baginsess (or eat your horsy-friends if you stay still).
