This 1st Edition Revised edition of Middle-Earth Role Playing was
printed two years after the original version and contains 128 pages as
compared to the 104 pages of the earlier version. This appears to be a
significant difference. The 1st Edition Revised edition also features
different artwork. However, both books contain the same product code.
Based on THE HOBBIT and THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Perfect for seasoned
players as well as those who have never experienced the thrill of
