Wars of the Ring
What if Tolkien’s battles were analyzed like real historical conflicts? Here, we explore the factions, strategies, and tactics of Middle-earth — one video at a time.
This channel will also serve as a support for a special project, partly collaborative, planned for 2026. Follow for updates and exclusive insights.

Wars of the Ring
The final part is finally coming.
The next episode on the channel will cover the Battle of the Pelennor Fields — this time from Sauron’s strategic perspective.
We’ll break down how his army should have been deployed on the battlefield and examine two key military concepts: tactical deployment and the oblique order.
Part 2 came out a while ago, but the conclusion of the series is now on its way.
Stay tuned.

🚨 What’s next on the channel 🚨
Two new playlists are coming soon:

⚔️ Tolkien’s War and Battles
➡️ Coming next
A more focused and concise exploration of battles and campaigns, analyzed directly through the books: formations, objectives, command decisions, and why each battle unfolds the way it does.

Wars of the Ring
Welcome, and thank you for joining the channel.
📜 This post is simply a short introduction to what this project is about.
This channel is dedicated to exploring the military dimension of The Lord of the Rings. Here, we rely strictly on Tolkien’s writings — without deviation or personal reinterpretation. The events are considered exactly as Tolkien narrated them, but examined through the lens of ancient military history.
🛡️ This reading of the War of the Ring becomes an opportunity to explore tactical and strategic concepts, which in turn help us better understand what a conflict like the one imagined by Tolkien might truly have looked like.
Welcome aboard.

Wars of the Ring
First subscribers — the journey begins :
A small milestone, but one that means a lot.
Thank you to everyone who watched, commented, or shared the first video — your support gives meaning to this project.
Later this month, the next major release will dive into Sauron’s campaign on his southern frontline, exploring two new strategic and tactical notions.
In the meantime, a new playlist presenting a geo-strategic overview of Middle-earth’s factions will be published next Friday (a short gap to allow the channel to breathe and grow around this very first video).
The goal remains the same: to explore Tolkien’s Middle-earth through its strategies, battles, and political dynamics — step by step, text by text.
Thank you again for being here at the very beginning.
Stay tuned — the story is just beginning.
