Free League has announced two new starter sets for its parallel Middle Earth-based TTRPG lines. The One Ring uses a bespoke system for Tolkien-themed roleplaying, while Lord of the Rings Roleplaying is powered by 5E.
Releasing on July 31st, Over and Under Hill will sell for $29.99 and include a poster map, rulebooks, pregenerated characters, tokens, and dice, as well as the titular adventure set in the wildlands of northern Eriador.
You are enjoying a rare, quiet evening at the inn in Bree when a hunter joins your table to share a tale about a dark threat looming over the North Downs. However, you are not merely simple guests at The Prancing Pony — you are members of a Company. It is your self-appointed duty to inquire about the bone-chilling dangers that might emerge from the houseless hills beyond. Are you ready to take the road to adventure?
These new and beginner-friendly Starter Sets for The One Ring™ tabletop RPG and The Lord of the Rings™ Roleplaying 5E, based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, provide all you need to embark on your journeys in Middle-earth. Immerse yourself in a world set between the time of Bilbo’s first adventure and the events of The Lord of the Rings™, exploring the Lone-lands of Eriador and taking on the roles of characters whose stories are yet to be told.

- Condensed rules for action resolution, combat, councils, and journeys
