But, what if the order was:
1) Shelob permanent-event,
2) Discard Shelob to attack,
3) Marvels Told?

In such a case, MT wouldn't have target upon both declaration and resolution - is that a legal play?

Thank you, guys, for the clarification. Annotation 6: If an action requires an entity to be discarded as a condition for the action's main effect, that entity must be discarded when the action is declared; this is considered synonymous with the action's declaration; i.e., it is not a separate action...

Unique. Spider. May be played as a hazard creature (with one strike) or as a permanent‐event. As a creature, may be played at any site in Imlad Morgul or Gorgoroth. If Doors of Night is in play, Shelob may be played as a permanent‐event that gives +1 prowess and +1 strikes to all Spider and Animal ...

A washed and refreshed version of the CRF is available on cardnum.net/rules under "Terms" and "Errata".

[...] cardnum.net/rules [...]

I like the refreshed version of the CRF files too! They do include the recently-resurfaced full text of CRF 15, don't they?

Anyway, would be nice if all those files were posted on councilofelrond.org/rules too.

The ICE Digests were available on several well known fan websites at the time.

Are the Digests available somewhere nowadays?

The fact that RtHW is declared in the passive condition's chain-of-effects and thus resolves first makes perfect sense. Thank you! PS. It is actually covered in the CRF: Note that cards like Rank Upon Rank are applied as a passive condition, once an attack of the right type is in play. Therefore you...

Playable on an Orc, Troll, Giant, Slayer, or Man hazard creature with one strike for each of its attacks. Is that "one strike" the normal number of strikes or the current (i.e. potentially modified) number? Example: Minions Stir is in play. Orc-lieutant has been declared/resolved, and his attack ha...

Unrevealed on-guard cards are placed in your hand at the end of the Site Phase. It should be: "at the beginning of the End-of-Turn Phase." Do you have a more recent reference for this? MELE at least says "at the end of the site phase." Balrog Summary and CoE #17 agree. It's based on [NetRep] Ruling...

Resolved. Thanks!

Source of confusion: A company may not play any resource during the Site Phase until they have faced all automatic-attacks, unless that resource directly affects an automatic-attack. Removing an automatic-attack does not directly affect it, although cancelling does. When facing an automatic-attack, ...

Looks like tapatalk plugin stopped to work following the latest software update.

Looks like the issue re-appeared following the latest update - links to forum.councilofelrond.org (example) do not work.

Then you play Oliphaunt's Fate or Cracks of Mumak to win the game.

Cool theme, thanks!

I haven't seen an Adunaphel deck other than the challenge deck, and I'm wondering whether anybody had put one together and played test it. There are no requirements, really, anything goes (as long as it purposefully makes use of the abilities of the RW).
