Questions About Characters

Q: What is the difference between discarding a character and eliminating a character?
A: A discarded character can be brought into play again, either by yourself or another player. An eliminated character may not be brought back into play at all.

Q: Do you have to put two of the same wizard in your play deck or can you put two different wizards in your deck?
A: You can either put two of the same wizard in or two different wizards in.

Q: Can characters with a bonus to influence against "Blue Mountain Dwarves" use that bonus against dwarf characters with the home site Blue Mountains?
A: No. This bonus only applies to the Blue Mountain Dwarf faction.

Q: If a character has a bonus to their direct influence do they get the bonus for each of their followers?
A: No. They only get the bonus once.

** Q: Do duplicated starting character that go back in the deck count towards the 10 character play deck limit?
A: When using the character draft at official Council of Lórien events, the duplicated characters do count against this limit. If not using the character Draft, duplicated characters do not count.

** Q: Can more than one of the same non-weapon non-unique item be played on a character?
A: Yes. More than one of the same weapon can be included (or the same shield, armor, etc.), but only one may be used (though all the corruption applies).

Q: Does tapping a character tap their equipment also?
A: No.

Q: Does a spell tap a wizard?
A: Only if it says so on the card.

Q: When do Hobbits count as half characters?
A: Only for determining company size. Fellowship and the beginning of the game consider them as whole characters.

Q: Can I play a character if I don't have enough general influence to control them?
A: Yes, as long as you have enough general and direct influence to control all of your characters at the end of the organization phase. Note that you cannot play a character and remove a character in the same organization phase. If you play a character and cannot control them by the end of the phase, the just played character must be returned to your hand.

Q: What happens if I try to influence away an item from an opponent's wizard? The rules state that his mind stat is used for this roll, and a wizard has no mind stat.
A: You may not attempt to influence away an item from an opponent's hand.

** Q: Can an ally play cards that require a character with a specific skill?
A: Yes, except for items.

Q: If I have a hobbit in my starting company and that hobbit leaves play and comes into my hand, can I play him at a haven?
A: No, he must be played at Bag End.

Questions About Combat

Q: The rules say the modification for tapped is -1 and for wounded is -2. If you are tapped and wounded is the modification -3?
A: No. Wounded characters are only at -2.

Q: How do creatures with a body number work?
A: For each strike that fails, a body check must also be made (unless the attack has no body, i.e., a dash). Every strike must fail and its body must be defeated in order to get MPs for the creature.

** Q: In what order are permanent bonuses applied?
A: The bonuses from weapons are applied first (and thus any prowess or body maximum is only considered at this point). Any other bonuses from permanents are applied in the order the player controling the characters chooses. This includes bonuses listed in a characters text box.

** Q: How exactly are strikes assigned?
A: When you are facing a hazard creature, you may only assign strikes to untapped characters. You may only assign one strike to each character. Any strikes you do not assign your opponent assigns to any characters who have not yet been assigned a strike. Any strike remaining after that is assigned as -1 modifiers to a character's prowess by your opponent. More than one of these modifiers may be assigned to a single character or to multiple characters as your opponent chooses.

Q: When is it too late to cancel a strike or an attack?
A: Once the strikes have been assigned it is too late to cancel the attack. Once the dice have been rolled it is too late to cancel the strike.

Q: Does cancelling a strike or attack defeat it?
A: No.

Q: Are the side effects of losing a character dealt with before or after I finish resolving any other strikes?
A: They are resolved immediately, before the other characters face their strikes.

Questions About Movement

Q: How does starter movement work?
A: Each company will have a face up site card showing the site it is at. This is called the site of origin. By the end of the organization phase put a face down new site for each of your companies that wishes to move. If a company's site of origin is a non-haven site (not Rivendell, Lorien, Edhellond, or Grey Havens), the new site must be the nearest haven. If the site of origin is a haven site there are two options. If you want to go to another haven you may go to one of the two nearest havens listed on your site of origin card, the new site card would be one of these two havens. If you want to go to a non-haven site it must be one which lists the site of origin as the nearest haven. If the company successfully makes it to the new site, discard the site of origin at the end of that company's movement/hazard phase.

Q: Does a company have to move each turn?
A: No. Simply play no new site card for a company that does not wish to move. This company is considered to be at its site of origin for your entire turn. Thus, your opponent may only play hazard creatures that are playable at the company's site. That is, hazard creatures with symbols that matches the site's symbol.

Q: How does region movement work?
A: To move a company from its site of origin to another site using region movement, lay down a series of up to four regions and the new site by the end of your organization phase. Each region in the series must list on its card the regions that are connected with it in the series as adjacent regions. The region at the beginning of the series must be the region listed on the site of origin card. The region at the end of the series must be the region listed on the new site card. A site which lies more than four regions away from the site of origin may not be reached in one turn with region movement (without Bridge, Shadowfax, etc.).

Q: Lebennin and Ithilien look adjacent on the map in the rulebook, but they aren't listed as adjacent on the cards. Is this a mistake?
A: No. If a site is not listed as adjacent on the card, it is not adjacent. In this case the Anduin River seperates the two regions.

Q: Why would I want to use region movement?
A: Region movement allows you to move from one non-haven site to another non-haven site, which speeds up the game. It also allows greater flexibility in movement. The only disadvantage is that an opponent can play certain hazard creatures keyed to specific regions.

Q: Why don't the starter decks have region cards?
A: A priority in the design of the game was to insure the playability of starter decks. Region cards would likely be mechanically useless cards in a starter deck game.

Q: How exactly is the site path determined?
A: The site path is determined by the way you got to the site. If you used starter movement the site path is the path on the site card for moving to and from a haven, or the path on the haven card for moving from haven to haven. If you are using region movement the site path is made of the region types on the region card you played. The site path always include the site type of the site you move to.

Q: Is any other site path ever considered besides the route a company takes when travelling?
A: Yes. For three cards from Me:TW in particular, Dragon's Desolation, Foul Fumes, and Long Winter, the site path listed with the site card itself must be considered, not the company's site path. For example, a company is at a site and chooses not to move. If the opponent plays Foul Fumes and Doors of Night, the site must tap if its site card contains a shadow-land symbol or dark-domain symbol. This site path is referred to as the site's site path, not the company's site path.

Q: Can I use short or long events to alter the site's site path?
A: Yes.

** Q: When is a company considered to be at a site it just moved to?
A: At the end of the company's movement/hazard phase, when its site of origin is removed from play.

Questions About Playing Hazards

Q: Does the hazard limit change if a character is eliminated during the movement/hazard phase.
A: No. The hazard limit is set at the begining of movement.

** Q: Do permanent events count against the hazard limit?
A: Permanent events only count against the hazard limit when first played. Nazgûl permanent-events also count when the tap (as stated on their cards).

Q: If my opponent has 2 companies when the first one moves can I play a hazard on the second one?
A: No. Hazards may only be played on a company whose movement/hazard phase is being resolved. Note that long and non-targeted permanent- events may affect both companies, even if they are played "on" the first company.

Q: Can an on guard card be triggered by one company and affect another?
A: Rarely. Only in the case of a hazard long- or permanent-events like Awaken Denizens which affects the automatic-attack at EACH ruins & lairs. An on-guard card that is legally revealed against a company during the site phase is not inherently restricted to affect only that company.

Q: If you play a creature as an on-guard hazard, can you reveal it after the automatic attack is faced?
A: No. If it is not revealed before the automatic attack is resolved it will go back to your hand at the end of the site phase.

Q: If a card requires two wilderness in the site path do they need to be consecutive?
A: No.

** Q: Can a creature hazard be placed on-guard at a site without an automatic attack, and if so when do you reveal it?
A: A creature can be played, but it cannot be legally revealed. Thus, it will go back to your hand at the end of the site phase.

Q: Does cancelling a strike or attack defeat it?
A: No.

** Q: What happens if the region or site type a creature is keyed to goes away before the creature resolves?
A: The creature is immediately discarded, and it has no effect on play.

Questions About the Site Phase

Q: The rules say you can play a minor item after successfully playing a item, ally, faction, or information resource at a site. Can you do this even if minor items are not playable at the site?
A: Yes.

Q: Once I get to a site, how exactly do I go about exploring it?
A: First declare that you are exploring the site. Then face any automatic attacks. If you have an untapped character at the site, play a card that is playable at that site. For most items and inormation cards it will say on the site card if you can play an item of that type (minor, major, greater, gold ring). For some items, factions, and allies it will say on the resource card if it is playable at that site. If the resource is successfully played and you still have an untapped character you may play a minor item. If after facing the automatic attack you have no untapped characters you must wait until next turn and face the automatic attack again (if you still want to play something).

Q: Can I use a card that cancels an attack to cancel an automatic attack?
A: Yes. This counts as facing the automatic attack.

Q: Do Havens ever tap, and if so are they discarded?
A: Yes Havens can tap. However, tapped Havens go back into your location deck, not to your discard pile.

Q: Is an automatic attack considered a hazard?
A: No.

Q: Does the site tap if I fail my roll to play a faction?
A: No. The site only taps if the resource card is played successfully.

Q: When exactly can I play a minor item after playing another item?
A: Only if the first item is played as part of the normal sequence for playing items in the site phase.

Questions About Specific Cards

** Q: How do you treat a character who is discarded due to an Abductor?

A: Yes, Alatar can force a zero-card draw.

Q: Can an Aligned Palantir be stored?
A: Yes.

Q: If the Balrog of Moria is in play and Galadriel gets killed, what happens in Lorien ?
A: The "In addition" section is not used because she is "out-of-play." The ring of Galadriel (Nenya) and her spirit are assumed to inhabit Lorien if she dies.

Q: If I play the Balrog and then kill it do I get the MP's?
A: No.

Q: Does Bane of the Ithil-stone stop me from drawing cards when someone moves?
A: No. It will only cancel actions that literally cause a player to search throught or look at any portion of any play deck or discard pile outside the sequence of normal play. It will cancel Vilya, which allows Elrond's player to look through their discard pile and put 5 cards into their play deck; and it will cancel Lucky Search. Bane of the Ithil-stone will not stop an effect which allows a player to bring cards from their sideboard into their discard pile or play deck. Neither will it affect an action which otherwise only causes a player to reshuffle their play deck.

Q: If a character gets returned to your hand by Call of Home or Call of the Sea, can you transfer all their items to other characters?
A: No, you may transfer one item. All other non-follower cards controlled by the target character are discarded.

Q: Can I play a Cave Drake at a Ruins & Lairs without two Wilderness In the site path?
A: Sure, go for it.

Q: If you cancel the Corpse-candle's attack does the company still have to make the corruption checks?
A: No, they do not.

Q: Does Doors of Night cancel resource environments played after Doors of Night is played?
A: No. Doors of Night only cancels resource environments that are in play when Doors of Night is played. The same goes for Gates of Morning cancelling hazard environments. Neither card can be played after strikes from an attack have been assigned, if the card would cause the number of strikes from the attack to change.

Q: Do I have to store Dreams of Lore to get the MPs?
A: No.

Q: Does the site have to be untapped in order to use the Dwarven Ring of Barin's Tribe?
A: Yes.

A: Yes.

Q: Does the character wounded by Escape have to be unwounded when the Escape is played?

A: Yes. The additional effect of the Evenstar if Gates of Morning is in play is optional.

Q: If Doors of Night is in play does Eye of Sauron give +3 or +4 to the prowess of each automatic attack?

A: The Nazgul's.

Q: Can I play more than one Fellowship on a company?
A: Yes.

Q: If I stay at an untapped site during my movement and play a Foul Fumes during my opponent's movement, does my site tap?

Q: Does Gandalf have to be in the same company as the ring he tests?
A: Yes.

Q: When can you use Goldberry's special ability?
A: You can tap Goldbery to cancel an effect declared earlier in the same chain of effects that would return her company to its site of origin.

Q: What happens to a Gold Ring card when I test it?
A: It is discarded, and you loose the Marshalling Point it gave you. If you have the right ring (as indicated by the test roll) in your hand you may play it immediately.

Q: Can Gollum and the One Ring ever be together at the same site?
A: Yes. The text on Gollum is an ability that you can choose to use, not an effect that happens automatically.

Q: What do Great Ship, Leaflock, and Tom Bombadil mean when they say "cancel the effects of one hazard?"
A: These cards allow the cancelling of an attack. They also allow the cancelling and discarding of an ongoing hazard effect that targets the company in question or any entity associated with that company (item, character, site, etc.). They allow the cancelling of an effect declared earlier in the same chain of effects.

** Q: If I am at a site where healing cards affect all characters at the site and I play Halfling Strength to heal a Hobbit, is everyone healed?
A: Yes.

Q: Can Healing Herbs be used to heal a wounded character before the body check, and thus avoid the body check?

A: Sure, go ahead. It can be played at a tapped or untapped site.

A: Yes, it will trigger a corruption check.

Q: Will Lure of Expedience trigger if I transfer an item from one character to another?
A: Yes, it will.

Q: If I tap a character to help another character with a Lure of the Sense's corruption check, do they then untap?
A: No, they will not untap until next turn.

Q: What exactly does the "Only playable at Lorien" mean on Mirror of Galadriel?
A: It means that Mirror of Galadriel is playable if any one of your characters is at Lorien.

Q: When do I have to declare using the Morgul-horse to bring a Nazgul permanent-event back into my hand?
A: You must declare this immediately after declaring the Nazgul permanent-event is tapping, before the Nazgul resolves and goes to the discard pile.

Q: If a character already has had a corruption card played on him during his turn, and he is wounded by a Nazgul bearing Morgul-knife or the Pale Sword, are they eligible to receive one of these corruption cards also? The rules state that a maximum of one corruption card may be played on a character per turn.
A: The character may not be assigned the Pale Sword or Morgul-knife as corruption cards in this situation. These two Nazgul enhancers should be ammended to say that playing them as corruption cards is optional.

A: No, Doors of Night is only required when Morgul Night comes into play.

Q: Can Muster be played when influencing an opponent's faction?

A: Yes, immediately.

A: Immediately following the Nazgul's attack. The same is true for Morgul-knife.

Q: Can the One Ring be used more than once in a turn?
A: As long as all the corruption checks are made, yes.

Q: Who chooses the character to make the corruption check when The Precious is played?
A: The player playing The Precious chooses.

Q: If I tap Ren the Unclean on my opponent's turn, can I play resources to modify the corruption checks of my characters?
