This review will cover both the Shire Adventures and the Rivendell Compendium. Upon release, The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying 5E will have 2 pieces of expansion content. Both of these expansions are available in the original game, The One Ring. This content, like the core rulebook, is a modification of the 5th edition DnD core rule set. These pieces of content are not standalone products. You will need a copy of the Lord of the Rings Roleplaying 5E to use this content. The Rivendell Compendium Review With it only being 11 pages long, the Rivendell Compendium is much easier to review. This compendium gives Loremasters the tools they need to host adventures in Rivendell. It contains background lore about Rivendell, two maps, and NPCs your players can meet. Yes, that includes the famous ones from the movies and books. It isn’t all for loremasters though. Players will find an extra culture here they can select during character creation.

Rule of Chaos has created a new setting and ruleset for Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition. Published by Alexander Amstler, it is a new way to play your favorite ttrpg by focusing play onto powerful demons of various shapes and sizes. Rule of Chaos – Demonic 5E features 6 new playable demon races, 10 re-imagined classes, and hundreds of new magic item, subclass, and template combinations that will never make the same game! This review is based upon the initial release document “Ambergleam’s Demise”, a 119-page adventure and rulebook available now from the Rule of Chaos website.

Each has unique powers and abilities designed from the ground up to be completely compatible with the rules
