Sets

Sets

• • Sets** were released regularly, starting from just before the release of //The !Fellowship of the !Ring// movie in 2001 to July 2007 with the release of //Age's End// (and the expiration of Decipher's license). For the Movie years, a 365-card "base" set was released each November to coincide with the movie it was named after, followed by 122-card expansions released at four month intervals. Each base set and the following two expansions formed a "block" named for that base set. //Reflections// was an exception, being released in between the two expansion set of King block, as a special 52-card all-foil set that focused on individual "Legendary" characters and concepts.

In November 2004 the new base set, //Shadows//, ushered in numerous changes to the game. From that point on all sets would contain 60 common, 60 uncommon, and 60 rare cards, in addition to new starter-only cards and a limited rare-foil set of 18 cards. //Expanded Middle-Earth//, //The Wraith Collection//, and //Age's End// were sets similar in content and intention to //Reflections//.
