The video will show you what is required to 100% the level with additional detail below for each part. Each level of the core story requires you to collect the following: At the start of the level, you’ll see an axe point on the wall to the right. Use it for the minikit. The instructions encourage you to come up with your own spin on the game. That can be by using more parts to expand the board, or come up with additional rules. They even give some examples. The set also comes with 2 additonal Leaders for the defenders, mixing up the possibilities. Schlacht um die Hornburg (Battle of the Hornburg) Schlacht um Helms Klamm (Battle of the Helm's Deep) Battaglia del Fortezza del Corno (Battle of the Hornburg) Battaglia del Fosso di Helm (Battle of the Helm's Deep)

One of the things that got me out of my Dark Ages, was a documentary on LEGO, filmed around the time The LEGO Group was coming out it's Dark Ages itself. One of the things that were shown, was a new line of products, called LEGO Games. The concept seemed to make sense: Appeal to both LEGO fans and board games fans, by letting you build your own board game. Batalla das Fortaleza de Corno (Battle of the Hornburg) Batalla das Abismo de Helmo (Battle of the Helm's Deep) The plain version of 85863 is still being used in sets. Currently there are 26 sets with 6 colors. My collection has more unprinted colors: If you're willing to remove prints (I know, I'm a psychopath), there is a total of 25 monochrome pieces to collect. The easiest way to do this is, is by using nail-polish remover. Warning: Use it diluted. Start with at least a 1:10 dilution with water. Pure nail-polish remover will melt the plastic of the piece. Batalla de les Fortalesa de la Banya (Battle of the Hornburg) Batalla de les Gorja d'en Helm (Battle of the Helm's Deep) After the wall has be destroyed and you’ll down by the large opening, there is a dig spot to the right of the destroyed wall with the treasure in it.As you’re heading through the castle on the horse, there is a minikit floating in the archway as you exit the castle. Overall: Not a great LEGO set in terms of building, but certainly a fun set to play with. This one will stay within grabbing distance during the vacation. Disclaimer: Anything said in this post is the opinion of the author and not The LEGO Group. All other new prints involve the MicroFigs. This set contains 11 new prints for the 85863, and 4 plain versions in Light Bluish Gray:

The set contains 338 parts and 3 spares, in 19 colors, and 18 part categories, with a total of 88 unique parts/color combinations. One of the Rohirrim dead was Háma, a captain of Théoden's personal guard and doorward of Meduseld, whose body the Orcs hewed after he died. Nonetheless, the refugees in the Glittering Caves were safe in their entirety, and thus returned to their homes. Gimli had lost his helmet in the battle and was wounded badly on the head, but he had killed forty-two Orcs to Legolas' forty-one. [1] Portrayal in adaptations " A new power is rising, its victory is at hand. This night the land will be stained with the blood of Rohan. March to Helm's deep, leave none alive. TO WAR! There will be no dawn for Men." — Saruman's speech to the Uruk-hai before their march

After being freed by Gandalf from Gríma Wormtongue's influence, Théoden rode for the Fords of Isen where Erkenbrand was battling Saruman's Orcs. As Théoden rode west, he met Ceorl, who informed him of Erkenbrand's defeat. Unable to meet Saruman's force head-on with his small force, Gandalf advised him to ride straight to the Hornburg where many of the people of Westfold were taking refuge in the Glittering Caves. A local captain called Gamling the Old led the garrison of about a thousand men. With the arrival of Théoden, the defenders' strength was just under three thousand men, allowing the defences to be fully manned. The battle begins once the Uruk host of 10,000 has formed fully in front of the castle - an accidental bow shot by an old man named Aldor kills an Uruk at the front, followed by a volley of arrows from all defenders once the Uruks begin to charge forward. The events are similar to those in the book, as Uruk-hai pour over ladders on the Deeping Wall to be met with a brave but shifting defence by the Rohirrim; however, Legolas, Gimli, and Aragorn's roles are greatly expanded, and the device responsible for destroying the wall is revealed as a form of gunpowder. Once the wall is blown, the Uruk-hai pour into Helm's Deep through the breach.

Just before dawn, Aragorn called for a parley at the gate and told the Orcs that they would die if they didn't surrender, but the Uruk-hai laughed at his threat and attempted to shoot Aragorn down, almost killing him. The Orcs then blasted open the gate, destroying the arch with the 'blasting-fire'. Suddenly, Théoden and Aragorn led a powerful cavalry charge out of the keep to the blasts of the great horn of Helm Hammerhand, followed by the defenders of the Hornburg, driving the Uruks away from the remains of the gate. At the same time, Éomer and Gimli with the company in the caves pushed the Orcs out of the Deep. The army of the Mark drove the enemy behind the Dike into the Deeping-coomb. This guide will show you how to achieve 100% completion on LEGO Lord of the Rings Level 11 – Helm’s Deep . The battle slowly turns from here; Aragorn is briefly incapacitated and, the Elves begin to wither, and Haldir himself is slain. The Rohirrim begin to suffer casualties of their own, their already-sparse forces thinning and losing their weakest members, and the Uruk-hai begin to besiege the keep by using a battering ram against the main gate. Théoden is injured in this chaos, and Aragorn offers aid, to which he requests "Time, as much you can get me." To do this, Aragorn and Gimli stealthily circle the fortress to ambush the Uruk-hai on the causeway. Gimli and Aragorn earn time for the Rohirrim to refortify the entrance, but soon the defenses break down as Uruks fully breach the area behind the Deeping Wall, and all remaining Rohirrim retreat to the keep. Once inside where they are trapped, Théoden falls further into despair while his soldiers brace the doors, as Aragorn and Gamling deliberate on sending the women and children further into the caves. The army of Saruman, ultimately consisting of Uruk-hai, Wild Men of Dunland, Orcs, and Half-orcs, was reinforced on the way to Hornburg, due to casualties in the Battles of the Fords of Isen. The army would arrive at the fortress at midnight on March 3. The theme started in 2009, and was discontinued in 2013 due to poor sales. The theme introduced 2 major new parts. First the 64776pat0001 - Die - 6 Sided Rubber Frame with Red Centre Studs. With this die, you can create any die you want, using different tiles. It's so iconic to the theme, it's even used as the logo.In the next section, before you throw Gimli over, head down to the bottom of the steps for the minikit. So, how is the verdict? Firstly the build. There is nothing really special in it. The castle is pretty basic, and the other elements are repetitive. It felt like 'let's get this over with so we can play', what goes against everything a LEGO build should be. So on that front, I'm not recommending this set. Bataille de la Fort-le-Cor (Battle of the Hornburg) Bataille du Gouffre de Helm (Battle of the Helm's Deep) From the exit of the castle through to the end of the horse ride, there are five posts to destroy for the minikit. As the Orcs break down the doors to the keep, Gimli notes that the sun is rising, allowing Aragorn to remember the arrival of Gandalf, and convinced Théoden to ride out with him. Gimli sounds the horn of Helm Hammerhand as Théoden, Aragorn, and the remaining Rohirrim upon horses charge out of the keep, through the Hornburg and out its gates, breaking the front line of the host at the causeway. From a vantage point, Théoden and Aragorn see Gandalf arrive upon Shadowfax on a high hill in the east, and with him Éomer and the horsemen he has gathered, who collectively plunge into the valley towards the Hornburg. The Uruk host, which is still great in number, forms up a massive phalanx of spears to meet Gandalf and Éomer's charge from above. The sun rises over this high point and shines on the battlefield, blinding many of the Uruk-hai and breaking their cohesive formation, and as the newly arrived forces charge into them, causing the Uruks to break and flee.
