War of the Ring: Coloured Plastic Rings - Core Set (PRE-ORDER)

 

For all War of the Ring Second Edition enthusiasts who want to protect the bases of their miniatures, while enjoying an easy and quick way to recognize them at a glance on the game board, here's the ideal solution: War of the Ring Coloured Plastic Rings Core Set Accessory!

This set includes coloured plastic rings to customize a full set of War of the Ring 2nd Edition: at least 118 small soft rubber rings, to fit regular units, and at least 87 large hard plastic rings – similar to the plastic rings included in Kings of Middle-earth – to fit elite units, leaders and characters. The rings fit around the figure bases; glue can be required for assembly.

The use of these rings in different colours – matching the colour scheme of the various factions involved in the War of the Ring – helps players to differentiate at a glance the different Free Peoples and Shadow nations each figure belongs to, without painting them. The coloured plastic rings will be packaged in a ziplock bag with hangtab, ready to use!

At least 1 spare component is included for each colour/type combination.

Get ready to enhance your War of the Ring Second Edition games with this original accessory, so that the forces on the game board are always clear, preparing you for the course of events in every siege and every battle.

It has not been received yet and we are unable to ship until a later date. The pre-order option is good way to lock in your order for an item that could potentially sell out by the time we are ready to ship. Pre-orders will be fulfilled in the order that they are placed.

We no longer require payment in advance for pre-order items.

The process for placing a pre-order is the same as for ordering anything else through our webstore, except no payment details are taken at the final stage. Instead you will be asked to confirm your pre-order following which you will be emailed a Confirmation Order for your pre-order item.

IMPORTANT: Please do not add in stock and pre-order items on the same order; these need to be submitted on separate orders. Any in stock items ordered together with a pre-order will not be reserved. Additional items can be added to a pre-order once it is in stock and ready to ship.

ALSO: Please place separate orders for pre-order items unless they are part of a set and will be released and made available at the same time.

Payment for a pre-order item is not required until closer to inventory arrival. Once we are notified by a supplier that a pre-order item is about to ship we will e-mail you an invoice for payment.
