Council of Elrond

Beorning Skin-changers wrote:Animals. Men. Bears. Two strikes. As a creature, playable only against minion companies. May also be keyed to Anduin Vales, Western Mirkwood, Wold & Foothills, and to sites in these regions. Alternatively, playable as a short-event against a moving hero company. Unless the company contains Beorn or an untapped warrior with prowess greater than 4, it must return to its site of origin.

Beorning Skin-changers are considered Animals, Men, and Bears. If they attack a minion company in a shadow-land (e.g. through some environment changes) as Animals or Bears they would not be detainment. If they attack as Men, however, they are detainment. I think they attack as all three at the same time: Animals, Men, and Bears. What rule takes precedence here?

I think so too.

Which are conflicting?

The rule checks whether attack keyed to region (by type, or name) is Orc, Troll, Undead, or Man attack.
It does not check whether it has additional types.

You are right. There is no rule that says that Animals and Bears attack normally not as detainment in shadow-lands. Although they do.
