I hadn't even finished celebrating the Laughter of Dragon and now this! 2018 is going to be the best TOR year so far! I have to hurry that Darkening campaign along before Balin sets off...

I'm going to need a new bookshelf just for TOR.

The box could also include stickers with the wings for the illustrations, and with the Fell Speed ability for the creature's stat box.

Now that Legacy games are in vogue...

Hello.
My first post somehow.

Dear C7.
How exactly you will make this product dedicated to two systems (AOME and TOR)?
I'm not interested in AOME, so I wondering if I will get stuff that will be not usable for me with this deluxe package.

Huzzah!

My wishes have been heard! A deluxe box set? Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

Thank you Cubicle 7

Not speaking for anyone at C7 but boxed sets are notoriously expensive affairs so we'll likely see a Moria product that covers both rulesets - I hope this isn't a precursor to the books being the same though; those don't have the same challenges as box sets so it isn't really necessary for them.

The way I'd do it is within the set I'd have system agnostic book(s) and other items that can be used with either system and then have a system book for TOR and one for AiMe. They may have one system book covering both, perhaps divided in two, but I'd pesonally avoid this so people don't need to flick through or look at a system they aren't interested in - also, it avoids any confusion and two separate system books would allow the one you aren't interested in to be easily ignored or sold on/thrown away (if it really was unwanted).

C7 may even provide a black sticker to cover up the offending AiMe logo on the box if we ask nicely*!

It will be interesting to see which approach Dom, Jon and the guys adopt.

* I jest. Sort of.

I think with all the discussions we've had about this subject here, Jon just used our comments and agreement as to what a Moria supplement should be as affirmative market research.

Great news!

Not only Moria itself (and possibly nearby Lothlórien) but also a deluxe box set! Wow!

About the dual system issue... let Dom & Jon & Francesco decide about that... I'm pretty sure we'll be happy with the outcome.

Of course people like me who are not interested in AiME would rather have an only TOR product (I still remember not very happily the MERP modules full of pages devoted to conversion rules to other systems), but if it makes huge sense for C7 to produce a dual set from a business perspective... it will be better in the end for all of us to have it that way.

I am sure there are AiME fans who who would rather not have the "useless" TOR stuff cluttering up their boxed set.

I love the cover. It is the most true to Tolkien depiction of the Balrog of Moria ever!
