CRF, Rulings by Term, Fallen-wizard wrote:If any version of a site is in play or in your discard pile, you may not play another version of that site.
Strictly reading of this CRF would mean that you - as a Fallen Wizard - may not move to your opponent's current site with any of your companies. Thus making any CvCC, riddling games or influencing attempts on characters, allies and items impossible. This cannot be intended.

My suggestion is to add the words "by you" to the current CRF entry.

I agree with the proposal.

According to current text of CRF rule a FW companies can move to opponent's site as long they are using the same version of the site as version already in play.
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.

I know I'm fairly late to this discussion, but with a rule like that, what's the purpose of the lost challenge deck P - Fallen Alatar - having two different versions of both Isengard and The White Towers? I'm not very familiar with Fallen-Wizard rules, so maybe it's something simple I've overlooked, but is it just to have to option to pick between one or the other depending on the situation in the game?

So long as a site is not in the discard pile, being able to choose which version you go to can be profitable, depending on the deck (I had one which used Carambor to keep on visiting different versions of the Lossadan Cairn to play/store Palantiri and also play the Wolves).
The game is flawed, but this does not mean it cannot be loved.

Is there any reason this was not submitted for the 2018 ARV?

Ok cool, thanks. I was just curious if something had changed which discouraged the submission.
