Pros & Cons
Pros
Your goal is to conquer middle earth before the ring makes it to mt doom. Added lord of the rings action cards. Easy to understand instructions.
Other than that it’s practically a brand new board game. New box smell and everything.
Worth every penny. Piensa que puedes gobernar a todos con el anillo. The box is perfect for storage and keep everything organized.
They have elements and pics from the movies. This is arguably the best adaptation of other source materials. It has a bit of a learning curve as it's far more complicated and unpredictable.

As a diehard lotr fan, this just takes it to a whole new level.

Shipping
It arrived fast and in perfect condition.
Packaging/appearance
The box is perfect for storage and keep everything organized.
Mine was received with the box really damaged.
The game came with all the pieces and was in good order other than the box being slightly damaged at the corner.
The game inside the box had a weird odor.
Competitiveness
It really is, imho, one of the better risk clones out there.
For as longstanding as risk has been, this is arguably the best adaptation of other source materials.

There are more sophisticated lotr offering this scope that have been published over the past 50yrs but they will cost you more and take more time and are appropriate for an older audience
