Gerry and Ben get stuck into a Middle-earth Strategy Battle game clash. In this Let's Play the Rangers of Gondor have been called to ambush a band of Morannon Orcs sent forth to ravage the lands of Minas Tirith. Will these Rangers get the upper hand on their foes or will the forces of Sauron win the day?

This is just a taste of the Games Workshop miniatures game, showing off a small force with minor heroes battling it out in a skirmish. If you'd like to see more Middle-earth on the channel, let us know in the comments and maybe Gerry and Ben can continue their Osgiliath-based campaign in the future.
Do you collect Good or Evil?

Do they have a cave troll?
Maybe in the next one 🙂
GErry was there, doesnt that count ?
No, he’s a hill giant.
I love MESBG. Although I play using 20mm fantasy miniatures that more reflect Tolkien than Peter Jackson’s interpretation visually. Just got two friends into it. I have armies for Rivendell, Lothlorien, Minas Tirith, Iron Hills, Serpent Horde, and Far Harad
Ah that’s awesome – what ranges do you tend to us?
Dark Alliance and Caesar 1/72 for Elves and Dwarves. HaT 1/72 Reconquista Spanish and Dark Alliance for Minas Tirith. For the Harads I use Dark Alliance, Caesar, Italeri, HaT plus some sculpting. Traditionally Far Harad is associated with sub saharan Africa but I always thought Tolkien’s descriptions also fit India well so mine look less like Zulus and more like ancient Indian soldiers.
Great to see some MESBG stuff on the Channel. Easily GW’s best game ever, hardly changed in over 20 years and still has a huge Tournament scene here in Australia.
It would be cool to see some more games, especially some points matches around 600-700ish. Hit me up on Discord, always happy to loan you guys some armies if you need them.
I would deffo love to bring more MESBG back to the studio. Need to work out another sesh for me to be there and get some more games filmed 🙂
Thought the Winter table with a very basic use of Terrain worked really well.
Did think breifly that Gerry was going to snatch it but his dice returned to form
so he was doomed.
Interesting scenario as on 1st look does look like it will be a an easy Gondorian victory .
Yay it’s the Irish Ben&Gerry !?!?
