Beorn’s Path

Beorn’s Path is a series of articles that will help introduce new players to the Lord of the Rings: The Card Game. Starting with the core set, we will cover deck building and basic play strategies. With our decks designed and built, we will be traveling through the scenarios of the core set, chapter packs and deluxe expansions, in the order of their release. For each scenario that we play, we will only be including cards in our decks that were in print at the time of that scenario’s release. Lists for each of the decks that we build will be included on the Decks page of this site. Each installment will introduce new concepts and build on the work of previous articles, so the series is intended to be read in order. More experienced players, or those interested in play-through reports of a particular scenario, can feel free to skip to a specific article.
