You are absolutely right. Don't know how I missed the remaining pages...
Will work on them right away.

You can divide the game contents by version - and also upload JMB's stuff.

The end of the manual is the glossary of many of the Middle Earth terms. Maybe one version does not have the glossary?

LeFey, thanks for the info. Interesting. The Middle Earth map was incredibly detailed. I wish I had it when I was reading the Tolkien novels. Would have been cool to refer to instead of the tiny maps that the books portrayed.

No it does. I screwed it up and didn't scan past the middle of the manual - which is exactly page 28 - the smaller version even has German and French instructions past the Tolkien Bibliography page - whereas the bigger manual does not - in its full extent it is 58 pages long, including cover and back cover.

I'll scan the remaining pages ASAP. And sorry, I was really convinced I had it all... I either didn't scan it at all - or I forgot to add the remaining pages to the PDF output.

Yes - it's wonderful - and far better than the majority of anything I've seen. Which I had it back in the day too.

But if you think it isn't too much trouble for a single release I'd be happy to scan the 3,5" disks and smaller box of the Amiga release - and then we'd have two complete sets of War in Middle Earth - both with manuals, maps, box and disk scans.

In fact, what we seem to be lacking now is the smaller box and disk scans and the remainder of the small box manual - and those are my "responsibility".

You can barely read the small words of the huge scan, how can you read them on the so small real thing?!

You can - with the help of a loupe - and even with that - it's hard. Still it beats the maps that came with the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
