Middle [Chat] Roleplaying

A spinoff of the buckets-of-dice-and-endless-tables RPG system Rolemaster, Middle Earth Roleplaying was suprisingly well suited to the fiction of the Lord of the Rings.

This is the rather more complete Second Edition rulebook:

but in order to make room for more game content they had to cut all the exellent character sketches from the original:

The game system is, compared to most fantasy RPGs, extremely low magic and low powered. Combat is extremely deadly, even with high level characters, thanks to the extensive and occassionaly amusing critical hit tables.
