Regarding those hobbit rumours
100% true is
LotR will be renamed to "The Hobbit"
Content of the box (miniatures) will be roughly equal to Dark Vengeance
Some was 100% NOT true
Rulebook being an exclusive to the starters box is a lie. you are in for a surprise.
the new rules wont revolutionize the current ruleset, but change is coming.
Pricing wont be more than isle of blood and dark vengeance, rather the same.
i dont know anything about a supplement or a limited edition.
