The Battle of Five Armies - Epic Strategy Board Game

The epic clash that Bilbo Baggins witnessed at the end of his quest is about to unfold in The Battle of Five Armies. In this thrilling two-player board game, players recreate the dramatic conclusion of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit.

The Free Peoples—comprising Elves, Dwarves, and Men—have formed a tenuous alliance to defend the Lonely Mountain and its treasure from the relentless onslaught of the Necromancer’s minions. Led by Bolg, son of Azog, the Shadow Armies are set to launch a devastating assault on the ruins of Dale and the Front Gate.

Will the Goblins breach the mountain and launch a two-pronged attack to overwhelm the defenders? Can the arrival of Beorn, the powerful skin-changer, shift the balance in favor of the Free Peoples? Will the majestic Eagles arrive in time to halt the Goblin advance?

In The Battle of Five Armies, one player commands the Shadow Armies under Bolg’s leadership, while the other controls the Free Peoples—Men, Dwarves, and Elves, guided by Gandalf. Based on the acclaimed mechanics from the War of the Ring board game, this game features action dice and event cards, ensuring each playthrough is unique. The addition of the "Fate Track" mechanic introduces new layers of strategy, managing the arrival of allies and triggering special events.

Key characters like Bilbo, Gandalf, Thorin, Dain, the Elven King, Bard, Beorn, and Bolg are all represented with powerful special abilities and detailed miniatures, enhancing the immersive experience.

Relive the epic battle and shape the fate of Middle-earth in The Battle of Five Armies!

From Pixels to Problems! Great read!
Format: Hardcover
“Play Nice” offers an enjoyable deep dive into the tumultuous history of Blizzard Entertainment, chronicling its journey from a ragtag group of brilliant college students to its evolution under corporate ownership and its current state. Schreier provides fascinating insights into the antics of Blizzard’s early employees, showcasing their outlandish attitudes, relentless work ethic, and tight-knit camaraderie. The book explores how Blizzard transitioned from a company renowned for producing high-quality, polished games that left competitors in the dust to one struggling to preserve its heart and soul amid mounting corporate pressures. While the corporate side and C-suite executives are often cast in a negative light, Schreier thoughtfully examines the motivations behind their decisions, offering perspectives from all levels of the company—from executives and middle management to QA testers. This balanced approach provides a refreshing take, avoiding oversimplified blame and instead considering multiple sides of the story. And while it’s easy to villainize the suits in the boardroom, Schreier does a great job showing why some decisions were made. From executives to QA testers, he pulls back the curtain to reveal a mess of perspectives, reminding us that every bad decision has some kind of reason behind it (even if it’s still a bad decision). The book also revisits the scandals that put some serious smudges on Blizzard’s reputation, offering new angles and fresh commentary. As someone who once lived for Blizzard games—cheering at Overwatch League matches and losing entire weekends to Diablo marathons—I can’t help but root for Blizzard to find its way back to glory. And hey, if it means waiting another decade for their next masterpiece, so be it. It’s done when it’s done.

Great insight into an otherwise obscure world
Format: Hardcover
As someone who grew up playing blizzard's games for an unfathomable amount of hours I've always been interested into their inner workings, especially considering their downfall in recent years. This book holds a ton of information and knowledge, is well sourced, and is the work of someone with obvious deep familiarity with the industry and its particularities. Besides the information itself, the book it written in fun and interesting prose, and it keeps the rhythm fast and entertaining, so it reads more like a novel than a journalistic article. Overall, an entertaining piece of insight into a world that is normally quite unknown, even to long time gamers like myself.

Great insight on what happened at Blizzard but...
Format: Kindle
My main issue with the book is the lack of non-american stories that explained the bigger picture. As a former Blizzard dev, there's much more than what happened in Irvine and Korea, with Europe's office mentioned almost as a footnote, and nothing else from the other regional stories. Shame but I guess the book would've been double the size.
