So are you saying that the sites change to minion version but the FW (on MInas Tirith) and hero (on Dol Amroth) resources played all stay? Well, Chambers makes MT a wizardhaven, which isn't affected by HGC. But also, I don't see any requirement to discard the resources if the site card is exchanged...

No Strangers at This Time is discarded because hero permanent-event cannot target a minion site. The rules state: "playing resources is handled normally with these exceptions: a hero resource event card may not target/affect a minion site card or a minion resource card." I get that the CRF states "...

You completely fail to understand the purpose of the CRF and who was responsible for updating it. I'd say there is a very simple reason why that ruling from ICE Digest 80 never replaced the original entry on Were-worm (spoiler: the ruling was wrong). And that CRF entry on Something Has Slipped is j...

The "beginning" and "end" of game phase is not an ICE invention. This is a basic game mechanic in many games before and since. The entire point of having "end" of a game phase is because nothing happens in the phase after it. In this game, things happening in the same chain of effects are happening ...

Old CRF entries aren't updated to account for newer rulings. Liar, liar, pants on fire! :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm not lying. The CoE Netreps were just ignorant of the ICE's changes. There are plenty of outdated rulings in the CRF :lol: :lol: :lol: Dragons: If a manifestation of a unique Dragon is defea...

It's free MP. You just made your deck but yes, stick to the Eriador resources. If you do the Gondor allies it's still free MP. Lobelia is useful for fetching, especially for Fallen-wizards. Red Book can be stored easily. Bag End, Bree, and Old Forest can become havens. You can get decent MP from onl...

Theo is of course right... Color me unsurprised. :roll: Wounding an ally discards an item. :roll: ICE Digest 80 came a year after the CRF on "wounding an ally". Old CRF entries aren't updated to account for newer rulings. Another later CRF Entry stated: @ Allies count as characters for the purposes...

Also, I know DC rules adopted such an errata. Maybe they can discuss any analysis that went into that reasoning. You can read about it here: [UEP, accepted] Multiple Rivers only require one ranger . Solution: Being able to tap one ranger to cross all Rivers already payed and resolved. Delete the fo...

(A) Requiring Wilderness steps on Snowstorm and Long Winter and (B) Saruman is the only Hero with 5+ prowess that isn't a warrior. And the FW can Govern the Storms. Instead, the roadblock paradigm would seem to require Doors of Night for Beorning Skin-changer's alternative effect, but that requireme...

Something is going on with Above the Abyss but I'm not sure what.

I'm not sure about the intentions of ICE when they designed this card and by any means I'd like to bring this discussion here. I think the intentions are important to any solution to this apparent problem. It seems like the River errata was a way to make Rangers important. In the beginning mere pre...

This conflicts with ICE's statements on that the attributes of a site not in play do not count even if you know what the attributes of the site are. No. This topic is about of determining a presence of a site (of given type) in game , not just in play. ICE's ruling generally states that the attribu...

From: https://councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=35621#p35621 If that what Minions Stir does not count as directly affecting an attack then directly the card may not be revealed as on-guard when Orc AA is faced. The on-guard rules do require the revealed card to " directly affect " the Automa...

(after changing your mind many times within a year) it should be clear to you that you may not always be right . I'm not always right. And certainly not at first. But it only took me 1 year to make sense of it all from reading ICE's own explanation for their own rulings. Changing your mind is no fa...

First paragraph affects a movement of agents played as hazards. If no FW player participates in game, all agents may freely move to Isengard, The White Towers, or Rhosgobel. If Fallen Radagast player does not participate in game, all agents may freely move to Rhosgobel, unless a copy of Rhosgobel i...
