We've had people writing in asking us where they could get their hands on the exclusive Ringwraith Miniature that was given out at GenCon for the Lord of the Rings Tradeable Miniatures Game. Well, it was a GenCon Exclusive, so sadly if you missed out on the opportunity to pick it up it may be gone for good. There are... other... methods... of getting exclusive items... *cough*ebay*cough*

Rotk Miscellania
Luthien @ 7:25 pm EST
Two quick notes on Rotk: HavensSpy Jules writes in that you can now pre-order RotK on Amazon.com, and they've thrown a short preview of the game into the deal for your viewing enjoyment. Check it out at Amazon.Meanwhile, HavensSpy 3eb_fan_uk, has sent in the following clip from the Official UK Playstation2 magazine, which featured the following blurb on RotK: "......... The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King Here's the real scoop. Online play hasn't even been confirmed for North America , but word is, the excellent co-operative mode will be networked. Our source also revealed that lag shouldn't be a problem because, thanks to clever coding, those lush visuals are less processor-exhausting than you might expect. Whatever. We just want to slice off some orc brainballs. .........." Is this a confirmation? Our fingers are crossed. Thanks for the article, 3eb_fan_uk!
