aids for Lord of the Rings games; these are stats trackers to record the special abilities of heroes and commanders using small D6. The original was 3D printed and then I&#8217;ve made moulds and cast them up in resin. The lettering and army badges are raised to make them easy to paint. I&#8217;ve painted some in appropriate colours for each army, and I&#8217;ve painted the &#8216;W&#8217; for Wounds in red to differentiate it from the &#8216;W&#8217; for Will (the other stats are Might and Fate).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how these work.
