Well I was thinking in context, because they seem to clarify the opposite by these words:
Playable on a
non-Ringwraith company that is not moving. Make a roll (or draw a #) for each untapped
non-Wizard character in the company; modify this roll by -2 for hero characters. If the result is greater than the character's mind, the character becomes tapped.
So in the first instance, they are saying:
non-Ringwraith company, what does this prevent? Ringwraiths (plural) from being tapped, because of the special restrictions RW-companies have.
then
non-Wizard character, what does this prevent? the lone, only possible btw, single Wizard from being tapped (with or without other characters in his company.
So to me this card doesn't care, about "Characters being tapped", they are just saying:
No Ringwraiths, No Wizards, No Balrogs, i.e. No Avatars (DC likes etc) can be tapped.
Hence the above post about how:
Ringwraith Followers are
NOT the same as Balrog Followers, i.e. each follower of a Balrog does not just require 1 D.I.
– a Balrog follower requires the amount of D.I. to control equal to the Mind of that character.
Therefore Ringwraith Companies, are
NOT the same as Balrog Companies.
(you can't just substitute Balrog, where ever you see Ringwraith, almost and kinda) but some places have to be checked...
Not to mention Balrog companies can have Non-Ringwraith Characters in that company, ex, Orcs, Trolls, etc...
After further discussion of this topic, I am putting in a request for Klar, Took, or Jabberwock, to create an AVR clarification for this, please. In the form of:
Underline mine:
Playable on a non-Ringwraith company that is not moving. Make a roll (or draw a #) for each untapped non-Wizard and non-Balrog character in the company; modify this roll by -2 for hero characters. If the result is greater than the character's mind, the character becomes tapped. Alternatively, may be revealed as an on-guard card on a company after the successful play of an item, ally, or faction. Tap all untapped non-Balrog, non-Ringwraith, non-Wizard characters in the company.
