Re: (TFT) Moria (Khazad-dum) Maps???



Not terribly detailed. I just pulled mine off the shelf and reviewed it.
Fonstad really only details what Tolkien explicitly described in Fellowship
of the Ring.

If adventure is what you want, in retrospect, your best choice is the I.C.E.
module as that has more extensive maps and, of course, since it is an
adventure module, "adventures". Keep in mind that it is I.C.E.'s
interpretation of Moria, but they were pretty slavish about following the
details to the best of their ability. True, they would slip up from time to
time but overall the MERP modules are extremely well "researched" and
detailed. Even though I find the game system itself cumbersome, I do have a
number of the modules just because they are well thought out and written.

Enjoy your stay in Moria, but remember, don't feed the orcs... it only
encourages them.
