Worth it
- Our take
- Reddit commenters say complete the trilogy but call RotK very difficult and frustrating on a limited card pool; the player cards are valued.
- What you need first
- Just the base game
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game · Expansion
The Return of the King Saga Expansion
- What it adds
- Six scenarios finishing the trilogy plus over 60 hero and player cards; its FFG July 2024 announcement marked the last repackaged box.
- What it fixes
- Completes the saga campaign and brings key Gondor and Rohan heroes.
