I have finally gotten around to buying the Frostgrave Rulebook and a box of their new Barbarians. I'm excited!

The barbarian box is cool and good.

LotR is a great skirmish game. If you play at high points values I feel it gets a little clunky and slows down. Otherwise it's pretty easy to pick up and play with tons of more tactics to learn as you go.

To be honest I was hoping Age of Sigmar was going to be the LotR rules ported over to warhammer. I was wrong. :(

The concept of LotR upscaling poorly is true. Can't talk about War of the Ring because I've never played it.

Common soldiers usually run in the range of 4-15 points each roughly. A lovely moria goblin is maybe 5 points while a cavalry rider might be something like 14 or 15 points. Soldiers are divided into warbands. A warband can have as many as 12 troops, and must be led by a hero from the appropriate list.

Heroes range from basic captains at around 40 or 50 points up to named heroes like Aragorn who is 170 points plus upgrades. The balrog is 400 points while Smaug is a nice fat 700.

600-700 is the highest value I like to play at. Any more points than that and the battles turn into giant time consuming clusterfucks.
