I know I have bought most of the physical copies, but it's a ballache having to add everything to DND Beyond by hand that I need for anything outside the main book.

You and me both.
(I've invested in all the Lord of the Rings RP/5e from Free League... as well, as plunging into all the books for The One Ring, Free League's own system... Well played, Free League, well played...)
To determine the nature of the event, the Loremaster must check the map to see in which region type the event is taking place, and then makes a d20 roll:
If it is within a Border Land, the roll is made with advantage.
If it is within a Dark Land, the roll is made with disadvantage
Would be impossible to understand what is Border or what is Dark Land.
Not all who wander are lost; but those that are wandering, may need to know the color codes on the map.

ModeratorSorry! I replied to the wrong comments. It's the Journey Log PDF that was fixed, which had that same duplication issue.
I'll make sure the character sheet is still on their radar.

Cool! Thank you! Any idea about the map key I mentioned - required for Journey logs - https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/d-d-beyond-general/release-issues-support/211409-the-lord-of-the-rings-roleplaying-bug-and-support?page=6#c105

Do we know if any of the supplements will be coming to DND Beyond?
I doubt that's the case, as there's been quite a few supplements from Free League who made it.

Going to gently bump this again...

Seems like a super easy fix (scan the Map Key) and adding it ....

Going to bump this again... (it's only been since December 2025 since I first mentioned this and it's still not resolved... Dec 20, 2025 - https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/d-d-beyond-general/release-issues-support/211409-the-lord-of-the-rings-roleplaying-bug-and-support?comment=105 )
So, the Lord of the Rings 5e content on D&D Beyond is missing a key to the map. In the back of the book (the physical copy I have) - there is a key that explains the various colors on the map (Border Lands = Green, Wild Lands = Yellow, Dark Lands = Orange, Impassible tokens, etc). This information is literally critical for doing anything with the JOURNEY portion of the Lord of the Rings game (see: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/lotrr/adventuring-phases#Journey) - the map here ( https://media.dndbeyond.com/compendium-images/lotrr/MBqg5ngVlqloGecp/map-4.01-eriador-hex.jpg ) does not have the extensive information that the map in the back of the book has - including those color coded maps. Without that - this step - https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/lotrr/adventuring-phases#DetermineEvent -
2. Determine Event
To determine the nature of the event, the Loremaster must check the map to see in which region type the event is taking place, and then makes a d20 roll:
Would be impossible to understand what is Border or what is Dark Land.
Not all who wander are lost; but those that are wandering, may need to know the color codes on the map.
Paraphrasing Gandalf.
