Hi,

I am a new french player, and I am studying the rules to make a deck.

The rulebook states that :
Rulebook wrote:Place up to 10 character cards in your play deck. Only one of each character card may be included. In addition, place up to two Wizard cards in your play deck (you may place two copies of the same Wizard).
But in all the decks I have found on many websites, there are 3 Wizards.
This is the same in the pre-designed Challenge Decks I found.

What is the good number of Wizards (and/or how many copies) I can have in my play deck ?

Thank you for your answers !

PS : Sorry for my poor english :wink:

The rules were altered for tournament settings in order to lessen the likelihood of a person not being able to play their wizard and to help them draw their wizard earlier.

The current rule used in most games is:

You may have 3 of one wizard or 2 of a wizard and 1 of a different wizard in your deck.

The same applies to ringwraiths and fallen wizards.

errr you can only have 1 type of fallen-wizard in your deck - the type you declare at the start of the game

you can't have, for example, 2 fallen-pallando and 1 fallen-alatar...


EDIT
wrote "can" instead of "can't", thanks for pointing that out Konrad :)

Going ever under dark,
Having the clouded sky above me -
And pale nothingness beneath me,
I see a light in the distant darkness,
It beckons me in and I accept it's invitation...

You cannot have, for example, 2 fallen-pallando and 1 fallen-alatar in FW deck.
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.
