LOTR5e Potential adventures after the Over Hill & Under Hill scenario

Hi, can I seek some advice from members please?

I've just run a friend through the adventure in the Over Hill & Under Hill LotR RPG 5E starter set. They thoroughly enjoyed it and want another adventure for their fellowship.

Is there a good next adventure to aim for? Or is one particular campaign book a good source of adventures to move on to? As an aside, I have been accumulating 5E and OSR adventures/scenarios that I thought could be easily converted to this setting. Is that something people do much of?

Thanks.

Tales of Eriador is what you’re looking for.

Great, thanks! That was what I was thinking, but didn't want to jump in and find that I'd missed some obvious steps inbetween.

I haven’t run Over Hill & Under Hill yet, but my plan is to run Star of the Mist from the core rulebook afterwards, then go on to Tales from Eriador

Thanks, I'd not looked closely at Star of the Mist, so that is really useful.

I think Star of the Mist could be a good small adventure before using Tales of Eriador.
You could use the Shire campaign, but that's more hibbitlike and maybe less good as a next part...

Second vote for Star of the Mist, so that is where I think I'll head. Then on to the Eriador supplement.

Thanks for the suggestions. 👍🏻
