Using Hobbit Tales for Journeys

Seems hobbit, journeys and tales are too common to search
So, has anybody used the game for journeys and if so, how have they found it? Geat addition, hit and miss, probably not worth the faff?
Any hints and tips?

Hi Mica,
The limitations of the Forum search were what prompted the development of the
Palantir for TOR. I hope you find it useful. In this case, check out e.g.
this thread for a previous discussion of this.
Hope this helps
Stuart

Cheers - pretty much echo my thoughts. Nice for inspiration but as a substitution tool not as good as the many area specific ones already written.

It was fun, but I went back to my normal method of using pre arranged hazards. I can tailor it better to the story...
But if you are up for it and your players are as well, then it is fun to hand the narration over to the players
This is what I do, unless there's a very specific one I want to use for the story.
