lord of the rings risk

when i first started playing risk i played lord of the rings risk the boardgame and they used a couple of very good rules that are very simple to understand and use.

1) they had a stronghold rule. key building locations in the films, like helms deep and weathertop, had an additional +1 to a die roll defense to represent their defensive benefit

2) they had captains. a captain was a different shaped figure that added a +1 to a die roll on attack and defense

while the captain rule will be difficult to represent on the board i think the strongholds rule will be very good on conquer club and can even be used on other maps as a option when starting a game

That's a very interesting idea. You should put this in the suggestions forum

I'm not sure about it, but I believe that the game mechanism doesn't allow you to add bonus to the rolls.

I used to mod a really cool forum for this game but sadly it died.

Anyway I suggested these rules ages ago and it got turned down because something about the server wont allow it.

Ohh well.
