Lord of the Rings Grand Tournament: The Quiz Revealed...

We've recently just held the Lord of the Rings Grand Tournament here in Warhammer World. The quiz proved to be a bit of a talking point for a lot of the players, as you can see below.

The tournament included the quiz as a means of distinguishing between anyone whose generalship score was tied with another player's. Here are the questions for you to have a look at and see how you would fare against them:

1. Q. After Isuldur was slain on the Gladden fields, who was the first person to recover the ring?
2. Q. By what other name was Gandalf known when he lived in the undying lands?
3. Q. Name three of the original Ents that lived in Fangorn Forest.
4. Q. The Prancing Pony Inn was located on the Great East Road at the foot of which hill?
5. Q. What was the profession of the 'Slayer of Smaug?'
6. Q. The art of smoking pipe weed was invented by Hobbits. Can you name the most popular variety?
7. Q. Of what race did Snaga belong to?
8. Q. In what year did the War of the Ring end?
9. Q. Gimli often referred to himself as 'Gimli, son of Gloin', but who was Gloin son of?
10. Q. What is Grond?
11. Q. What is the name of Theoden's sword?
12. Q. The battle between Gandalf and the Balrog is also known as which battle?
13. Q. What were the surnames of the Hobbits known as  Frodo, Meriadoc, Samwise and Pippin?
14. Q. What was the name of the greatest of the Eagles at the time of the War of the Ring?

No one got full marks during this particular task; there were some very thoughtful expressions in the gaming hall while this was going on. It's at this point I would like to thank Dan, one of newest members of the Warhammer World team for coming up with such a challenging task for our players.

Warhammer World Entrance Refurbishment

Over the next few months we're going to be re-furbishing the main entrance to Warhammer World in order to give  a more characterful feel to the world's top gaming and miniatures arena. Unfortunately this will mean some disruption and inconvenience for our visitors, but we aim to keep this to a minimum. As you can see from the mock-up photo, the new entrance will give a much better feel of entry into the Warhammer World.
