War of the ring and MEQ have the exact same size board. And they are actually very similiar. As far as quality goes, i think War of the ring has an edge due to the thickness of the board. MEQ seems a tad bit flimsy compared to WOTR. But the MEQ game board is far more beautiful i think.
Wow this is huge...nice!...i think too that the MEQ Board is much nicer...but more details on the WOTR Board would have made it much more difficult to see certain boarders and so on...
I just got the game, and this has been a concern for me (where to put it?), and it's just a bit over 28.25" in the one direction, and just a bit over 41 (that's forty ONE) inches in the other.
One inch one way or the other might not normally matter so much as far as board dimensions, but this game really wants some healthy border space for the various external chit piles, deck and discard stacks, and player cards.
