A replacement Saruman Character Card reflecting Saruman's ratings (starting and reincarnated) in the 3-player game. Just fold over, trim to size and laminate.

The Character game's Turn Sequence, Combat Sequence, Search Sequence and the chrome for seizing the Ring, all on one page.

Here are counters for the "Saruman-on-Steroids" in the 3-player game (a 3-(4)-5 Saruman counter with the reverse reflecting his 2-5 resurrected strength). I have also added two 10-6 Warg units (along with sufficent breakdown counters) to give the Saruman player at least some cavalry(ish) forces in the 3-player game and, bring his force mix more in line with what he had in the story.

I created 2 simple rules that I believe will improve the gaming experience of SPI's War of the Ring. They have not been tested but I hope to test them soon. Stay tuned in the forum for updates.
