Mirkwood Explorer is really interesting. He can just build up progress tokens until you need him to clear out at nasty location. Might work best with a card like Hennemarth so you can decide if you want him to quest or save his exhaust.
Does the pattern of these cards indicate we are heading northeast next?
Pretty sure it does indicate we are going to Dale/Mirkwood and that general area in the next cycle. Lanwyn, the Outrider and now the Mirkwood Explorer.
What I just realised is that area would be a PERFECT setting for improving upon existing traits while also making Dale a thing.
Think about it, new Silvan mechanics based on Thranduil and the Mirkwood elves and new Dwarf mechanics and cards based on Erebor as well as whatever we get for Dale!!
