Yea i had that prob lastnight also.

aah k :D thought so, would have to be dam lucky to get some of the art posted as playmats, wish we could though :(

This would be an awesome playmat http://i.imgur.com/sr3n6.jpg

I kinda like this one…kinda artsy. http://www.tolkienlibrary.com/press/images/lf-glaurung.jpg

These two ideas are really sharp.

I'm hoping to have this done by the time I have another game night,

I also really think this one is perfect for a one to two player game…

Thoughts?

Wow, I'm not really that big of a fan of Magali Villeneuve but that second playmat is amazing! I think it captures the look of this game perfectly.

Thanks! It's still a work in progress for me… Trying to figure out the best placement of things, etc. (as you can tell, I'm defintely a fan of Magali, lol).

It really is great. Very, VERY thematic. It would make a lovely birthday presssent.

I really like "The North Stair" From THoEM.  That would make a great playmat.

here it is    http://www.cardgamedb.com/index.php/lotr/lord-of-the-rings-card-spoiler/_/shadows-of-mirkwood/the-hills-of-emyn-muil/the-north-stair-thoem

That one BGG with the Magali art is incredible. I need to find away to have that.

This Guy has some amazing stuff, his name is Donato Giancola & he has my favorite Rohan hero in all her honorable glory…

the execution is great, however the layout does not suit my way of playing, especially with two hands (afterall i have to have both beside me)

Loved this one…  Very dark feel to it…

Brownmantle said:

This may honestly be my favorite one of this fight EVER.  Just has an epic feel to it (I know, that word gets way overused)… but I LOVE the perspective and depth this one has!  It almost feel 3D without being so… just amazing!

Brownmantle said:

THIS on may be one of the better ones for playmats yet… very simple.  Not overly busy and cluttered…

Brownmantle said:

Honestly didn't care much for these… the Galadriel ones just didn't really do much for me, but perhaps that is because she is probably one of my least favorite characters in Middle-Earth lore…  The Frodo/Gollum/Sam one was a bit disturbing… honestly thought Frodo was either breaking up a very akward moment between Sam and Gollum… oooooor was about to join in.  Just saying.  Treebeard was okay… just seemed a bit cartoonish, but perhaps fit his personality in the books and the movies.  Looks both naive and wise, all at the same time.

But THIS one…

Brownmantle said:

… I LOVE.  Love the theme, (as you are probably aware by now, that's one of my favorite scenes in the entire Ring Cycle… but 'ol Brownmantle here still loves it more, I believe!)
