The Fate of Erebor asks a tantalizing question: what if the Shadow had won at the Lonely Mountain? This promotional expansion for the War of the Ring base game provides an alternate setup that ties directly into The Battle of Five Armies board game, so the outcome of one epic struggle shapes the start of the next.

When the Shadow player claims victory in The Battle of Five Armies, the War of the Ring no longer begins as history recorded. Instead, Middle-earth reflects that darker outcome, and both sides must fight the war for the Ring under new circumstances.

Consequences That Carry Over: The Fate of Erebor links two games into one larger story. A triumph for the Shadow in the battle beneath the Lonely Mountain becomes the foundation for what follows, giving that victory lasting weight.

An Altered Middle-earth: Alternate map tiles, character cards and event cards reshape the familiar War of the Ring setup. Players who know the base game well face a fresh starting position and new challenges to master.

For fans of both games, The Fate of Erebor brings Middle-earth's battles together into one connected tale. Add it to your War of the Ring collection and find out what happens when the Shadow wins the first battle.
