Question 1: When a Shadow Effect forces a player to discard an attachment, I assume that player can discard any of his/her attachments that are in play, whether on one of their characters (eg Steward of Gondor), on an enemy engaged with an opponent (eg Forest Snare), or in the staging area (eg Ranger Spikes).

Question 2: Is the One Ring (from aSitE) immune to such a shadow effect, should such an effect trigger when the player's only attachment is The One Ring? I assume so, because the One Ring is "immune to non-Master card effects," meaning the only way to lose the One Ring (and therefore the game) would be to have the hero it is attached to leave play?


As always, thanks for helping a new player!

Yes, trap attachments are still "your" attachments, so you can discard them if instructed to.

Yup! "Card effects" includes shadow effects, so shadow effects can't discard the One Ring.

Hope that helps
