Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game – The Burning of the Westfold – 30-82
The Burning of the Westfold is a narrative supplement for the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game, focusing on the war in Rohan during the War of the Ring. From the first incursions by the forces of Isengard to iconic moments like Helm's Deep and the ride to the Pelennor Fields: this book provides players with new scenarios, background, and hobby inspiration to bring the battle for Rohan to life on the tabletop.
Narrative Battles in Rohan
This supplement is ideal for players who want to give their Middle-earth games more story and historical context. The focus is on the defense of Rohan against Saruman's armies: Dunlendings, Warg Riders, Uruk-hai, and other forces of Isengard burning down villages and increasingly pressuring the Rohirrim.
With 11 Narrative Scenarios, you can replay key moments from this period. Think of raids, ambushes, defensive battles, and grand heroic confrontations where the Riders of Rohan take center stage.
Rohan vs. Isengard
The Burning of the Westfold is especially interesting for players with Rohan and Isengard armies. Rohan is about speed, cavalry charges, heroic captains, and protecting vulnerable targets. Isengard brings brute force, discipline, warg attacks, and the relentless will of Saruman.
The scenarios give both sides clear narrative objectives, making games feel different from standard matched play. For clubs and regular gaming groups, this book is an excellent basis for a short campaign or thematic game day.
Hobby Inspiration for the Westfold
In addition to scenarios, this supplement also offers plenty of inspiration for building and painting Rohan terrain and miniatures. The theme is perfectly suited for burning villages, wooden palisades, cavalry formations, muddy fields, Isengard raids, and dramatic battlefield scenes.
For hobbyists, this is a great opportunity to integrate Riders of Rohan, Dunlendings, Uruk-hai, Warg Riders, and Rohan houses into one cohesive project.
