I'm a bit hesitant to add more burning MP cards. Like Marcos says, do we need another? Other than theme it doesn't add much. And I think playtesting will show that Fell Rider Khamul and Co. can walse into this place. In fact, since this card doesn't tap the site, it can be played in addition to an i...

Beer from tap is always better than from bottle. :wink:
I usually have one in deck and one in sideboard, that's true.

Not broken for drakes/undead maybe, but for men/orcs?

Well it depends, doesn't it? you don't always need tons and tons, if you have a company with HL 2, like big guy plus two hobbits, then 3 creatures is already enough to get good benefit from ToTTP, more so because you can play other hazards besides playing 3 creatures, like your river :wink: The thin...

A bit scarier indeed! :lol: Life in Eriador has always been too easy anyway. Yes it sounds okay, not spectacular though, but nice. But I don't understand the problem you pose for recycling the region-modifier. The cards come from sideboard, so you won't ever include 3 in deck, that's the point. Just...

agents are strong indeed, but only as a half-strategy most of the time, to deal out one big blow. And the cards mentioned by Jambo are indeed almost never played which is a real pitty. So i don't think they need a boost perse, but some diversification wouldn't hurt, either by virtualizing some of me...

just did a quick search using the spoilers at dutch council site, and these are the hazard-events that have 'nazgul' in game text.

I agree, the phrase 'with the word nazgul' is sloppy anyway. If Eowyn were a hazard, I could play here under TNaA :wink:

He will have to have a leader first, and I would not call it exactly safe, would you rather have your company hunted down because it tries to protect a faction from loosing 1 MP, in the process possibly missing out on your own resource strategy thus missing MPs? Well you probably mention the only si...

but then you would have to add the 'this card becomes a short-event clause', right? I'm no master of timing rules, but if you play it and tap it straight away, somebody could marvel it in response, right? so your tapping would be moot and effect lost. Yes In Darkness still sucks, either way, so mayb...

but i did wound Jambo's wizard with an abductor powered by words of terror though never played a nazgul after it... but that was exactly what worried us/me, that you could play WoPaT for free from TNaA just for a little prowess boost....now you wounded him, but any other char would have been discar...

But there's a difference between using it as ally, i.e. helping you, and needing a character/company to guide your faction to do battle. I agree the ally bit is rather debatable for many reasons, but surely you don't want to discard the idea of leading factions to places where they can do battle for...

I like it Jambo! I was thinking about something along the line of Nazgul Abroad V to stack support cards on, but this is also neat, these region modifiers are almost never played (except maybe Angmar) while they are so cool. On the other hand, they seems like cards destined to be virtualized, which ...

But Firiel already is in Minas Tirith, it's her home!, so she can open the gates for the undead. Gothmog attacked outside Minas Tirith -if you think he got into the city then you're mislead by the film, well even there he stayed outside the gates and got butchered by Gimli and Aragorn, but at least ...

Well you've had some Virtualizing experience by now Boder, so you should know never to cheer too early :wink: . It remains to be seen wether active factions can be done effectively. Also I have some thematic doubts still about factions as allies. I would choose the leader concept because it makes fa...

Haha, Gothmog an agent. well we'll have a bit of work on him yet, or do you want him to attack at Minas Tirith? I wonder how he would sneak into the city. Or, on top of that he could lead a party of Olog-warlords into Minas Tirith too? What, are they wearing Elven-cloaks now? :lol: how does the mech...
