5.0 out of 5 stars RPG for middle earth, April 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Middle-Earth Role Playing (MERP): The Role Playing Game of J. R. R. Tolkien's World (#8100) [BOX SET] (Stock No. 8100) (Hardcover)

This is an RPG system based on the world of Tolkien's middle earth. It uses a simplified rolemaster system with basic D&D type classes. It uses a level system and magic is well developed and has great flavor. This captures the feel of tolkien and of RPGs well. I would recommend it for anybody who enjoys RPGs and either wants to use middle earth (there are many quality supplements though most are out of print)or new material to incorporate into an existing RPG (as I have done with the material in this product).

Was very pleased with our purchase. We have LOTR fans in the house-all girls! They have played the game with Dad and are looking forward to many more adventures. Product arrived before we expected and was exactly as described. Thank you very much.
