The Game
This game is a Middle Earth game using Rolemaster. I realise newer systems more closely resemble Tolkein's world, but I don't care. I grew up with MERP, Rolemaster and Middle Earth, so that's what I am running with.
The World and Feel of the Game
The campaign starts in Tharbad, during the war with the Witch King of Angmar. Tharbad is a small city at the southern edge of the Northern Kingdoms, well the two of the three that remain, so it's far from the front lines (as far as pitched battles are concerned).
It will have a rather Shadowrun feel to it, since Tharbad as a city has a real Mos Eisley/Ankh Morpokh feel to it. Characters are more likely to be mercenaries on the make than anything else.
