I really enjoy the adventures, I think they do the job the designers planned. The downside for me is I had to read all of The Shire booklet first. I would have liked the adventures to have provided relevant tid bits of information required to reveal the setting as the story continued. Either way the Starter Set is amazing value.
Assuming there’s a page limit to the size of each booklet but yeah, not switching between two booklets while running or prepping an adventure is advantageous. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I like the starter set just because they are so light hearted. Great for new adventures to learn rules little by little without great danger, unlike the full game that can be rather deadly!
My take as well. Great change of pace and it matches the first chapters of the Hobbit and Fellowship of the Ring. Intentional as to match that feel and look of the source material!
100%. It’s a great way to learn the rules and get a feel for Strider mode for sure. Try out the first adventure and tweak things to suit your style. The pregens are already adjusted to the a lower Target Number so no issues there.
Do you think this adventures are good for first time players not only in this game but ttrpgs in general? When I read the adventures it seems very friendly for a first time dive into ttrpgs
For sure. Each adventure progresses to cover more and more about the ruleset for The One Ring, and really hits home the tone for a game set in the Shire and Middle-Earth! The One Ring is great to be the first to try out the TTRPG space and the starter set helps with that. Also, because it’s set in between the events of the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, there’s some setting familiarity for everyone… well unless one hasn’t read the books or watch any of the movies lol I created this channel and the videos to hopefully help out new (and even experienced TTRPGers) to the One Ring. Hope you have found them helpful so far! Also really check out the live play by Glass Cannon Network, if you’re running the game as the lore Master. Really helped me with understanding the feel and tone for the game and the mechanics.

Perfect intro to the set with great tips. And I agree - the starter adventures are just fine and I like them, as do my players.
Thank you! Great to hear you think the same!
Just starting running this campaign, appreciate all the help!
Thank you and good luck! Hope the videos help and let me know how it goes!
Great video, thanks! 👏👍😁
Thank you! Hopefully it helps!
Do you think i could play this set alone ? I lean using the included Adventures along with the Strider mode ?
