Re: Agents

Agents can be characters for minion and Fallen wizards? If this is true then you can choose whether they are an agent or characters as the game progresses? Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk Agents as characters are described in the Lidless Eye rules and in the White Hand rules, which you can fin...

Re: Arranging Adventures -- Adapting ICE's RPGs (LotR Adventure Game, MERP, Tolkien Quest, etc)

Very cool... any chance you could post your scenario/leveling rules? I'd like to try them out. I've been slowly making notes for months (or years?) but I don't have a complete ruleset in a finished form. There are two halves really, the Rules for Adventure (playing the scenario) and Arrangements fo...

Arranging Adventures -- Adapting ICE's RPGs (LotR Adventure Game, MERP, Tolkien Quest, etc)

I read ICE's "Tolkien Quest - A Spy in Isengard" which is the choose your own adventure style RPG-lite. I wrote "read" and not "play" without thinking and that is a hint at why ICE was sued over this. But anyway, it is a really neat and simple RPG system where you can f...

Re: California Central Valley Gamefest 2023

Looks like a nice event! Though a bit far for me.

I'll see if I can plan for Stratigicon later this year or maybe something else.

Re: 322-Player Simulator

That might be an issue with us using different versions. The "right-click, view code" instruction is to view the VBA Editor window. No for a self-driven simulator. The idea is to have a layout of cards on the spreadsheet while seeing the cards' text in a comment while also being able to s...

Re: Agents

Can Some one give me a run down on how agents work in the game? How do you get them to sites? How do they get in the game, ect. Why play them upside down vs face up, how do they become revealed? Are they considered on guard at home sites? When a party arrives at a site where they are at what happen...

Re: Nenya

A nice combo might be, if you had Galadriel and Gandalf in play is Galadriel in Luthien playing Nenya to affect Gandalfs CC declared earlier as he battles a Balrog in Moria - very thematic! Yeah, there are some fun decks you can make using the rings. I'm looking for my copies of Clear Skies and was...

Re: [MISTAKE] Curiosity: Killed by Abductor

I don't know if I follow the new example but I thought about this again and arrived at my same conclusion: there is a difference between the play of a hazard (for which Minas Tirith with White Tree counts as a Haven) and the effects of a hazard (for which Minas Tirith with White Tree is just a Free-...

There's discussion on discord about it, though I'm not sure if this link will work.

Re: Imaginary Problem: Playing short-events for no effect

You posted the rules on LEGAL PLAY OF CARDS but did you check on the primary rules in PLAYING AND DRAWING CARDS? A card that "appeared at declaration as a card having no immediate/could be used/triggered later effect" cannot be declared. Practically speaking, these two example cards work (...

9+ player games advertised, but is it in the design?

I played in a 7-player Ringwraith Arda game and so it caught my eye when I noticed that the back of the Lidless Eye starter box mentioned 9 player. I looked at the LE multiplayer rules and it just mentioned 3-5 players. But interestingly, the revised multiplayer rules in the LE Player Guide (https:/...

That's OK. In such a case the other effects of The Great Hunt would still apply.

Re: The Great Hunt

Some things go without saying because they are necessary and inherent. Hazard creature attacks are described in the rules. The card text does not need to repeat the rules.

The proposed errata is unnecessary, and partly misleading for the reason above.

Re: Origin of Angus McBride’s Exhalation of Decay?

When you read the book it's fun because sometimes you can spot card titles but they are not word for word, and so not really searchable. Although a lot of them are, like here. The lore quotes are often on point but not always. And sometimes the lore quotes have the wrong book. Or, it seems there was...
