Voltigeur Napoleonic Lord of the Rings Conversion
GWs LoTR, Rules Napoleonics
Games Workshop’s Lord of the Rings game is a marvelous skirmish system that is readily convertable to many other periods. Hey—Games Workshop proved it by releasing Legends of the Old West, a set of cowboy skirmish rules.
Voltigeur is a conversion of the system for Napoleonic gaming.
I wish I had some 25mm Napoleonic figures so I could try it.

Wipe Dry Character Cards for GW’s Lord of the Rings
GWs LoTR
When playing Games Workshop’s Lord of the Rings battlegame, you need to keep track of each character’s Might, Will, Fate and Wounds. As you can imagine, when playing a character heavy game, this can get a bit fiddly.
The solution is to create sets of small character cards where you can tick off the stats as necesary. Even better: laminate the cards so you can write on them with wipe off pens and so use them over and over.
The One Ring website has sets of downloadable, pre-made character cards.
If you dont’ have access to a laminating machine, I have another suggestion: lay out a sheet of clear contact paper with the sticky side up. Then put the cut out cards on the shelf liner, face down. Cut out the cards and then repeat for the backs. The shelf liner is not as good as laminate, but will make the cars last for a bunch of games.
