Morgoth invades Beleriand; the 1st and 2nd battles.
Description:
Morgoth decided to invade Beleriand to wipe out the Sindar before the Noldor arrived to contest his possession of the Silmarils. King Thingol of Menegroth was able to rally Denethor and the Elves of Ossiriand to engage and destroy all the orcs who marched south of Dorthonion. However, orc bands besieged the ports in the west of Brithombar and Eglarest. Thus ended the first battle. When Feanor arrived, unexpectedly in Swan vessels, Morgoth vowed to crush him with a single blow. He assailed the Noldor around Lake Mithrim but found the Elves mighty! His forces were annihilated and the Noldor made their own attack on the gates of Angband. But lo! Feanor and the van were surprised by Balrogs and killed within sight of Thangorodrim. Come and see if you can change “history” as Steve Fratt play tests his adapted War of the Ring expansion rules for the Battles of Beleriand.

Morgoth invades Beleriand; the 4th battle - 455 F.A.
Description:
During the four hundred years peace, the caves of Nargothrond and the hidden fastness of Gondolin were built. In his envy, Morgoth had spawned vast legions of orcs and prepared them to emerge from Angband with even greater fury. The Fourth Battle was preceded by huge rivers of flames gushing out of Thangorodrim and onto the plains. The orcs followed, led by Balrogs, and a new terror, the firedrake Glaurung! The West held against the onslaught but, in the end, the East was lost! This defeat was multiplied by the death of Fingolfin who challenged Morgoth to individual combat before the gates of Angband. He wounded him many times but could not prevail against Grond, the Hammer of the Underworld, and fell.

Description:
Inspired by the feats of Luthien and Beren, Maedhros decided to challenge the power of Morgoth with the help of Fingon and Turgon.

Only Turgon survived the disaster by returning to Gondolin, the hidden kingdom. However, the doom of that great city was close at hand.
