Quote:

Lord of the Rings is more or less the foundation of modern D&D. The latter rose from the former, although the two are now so estranged that to reunite them would be an act of savage madness. Imagine a gaggle of modern hack-n-slash roleplayers who had somehow never been exposed to the original Tolkien mythos, and then imagine taking those players and trying to introduce them to Tolkien via a D&D campaign.

If you liked it, the rest are here: DM of the Rings I:The Copious Backstory - Twenty Sided

There is also one for Star Wars and Conan The Barbarian

I love this version. Anyone reading it, prepare to lose several hours. It goes on for a long time, and is worth every moment. And I haven't even gamed since junior high school.
