About The Lord of the Rings: The King's Gambit, from BoardGameGeek:

Restoration Games and Space Cowboys are partnering to revive a beloved classic board game, The Queen's Gambit - this time set in the world of The Lord of the Rings. Like its predecessor, The Lord of the Rings: The King's Gambit features a sprawling, epic battle across multiple fields of play. The Riders of Rohan clash against hordes of Orcs on Pelennor Fields. The brave Gondorians fend off the forces of Shadow in Minas Tirith. Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas maneuver their way through Haradrim on the Great Port at Pelargir to join the fight. And Frodo and Sam navigate the perilous journey through Mordor to the fires of Mount Doom. Game design is led by Rob Daviau, the legendary designer and co-founder of Restoration Games. Packed with detailed figures, thrilling decisions, and countless ways to win, this game delivers the ultimate experience for fans of The Lord of the Rings and board gaming alike.
