Forest Snare with Nazgul

By daveman006, in The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game

Here is a question, does a creature with Forest Snare still get a Shadow effect dealt to it? If so then the Nazgul of Dol Guldur is still bad even when snared. I guess you have to hope that the shadow card dealt does not have a shadow effect... The play my friend and I were playing was no Shadow effect was dealt with the Snare in play on the Nazgul however it didnt really matter cause we still lost due to threat generation with the objectives and the Doomed locations and monsters coming up even Gandalf only delayed it a little. It is tough scenario with 2 players havent tried with 3 or 4 might be doable then.

All Enemies engaged with players receive a shadow card. Then you choose the order of Enemy attacks. When you choose the Nazgul with the Forest Snare attached, he cannot attack, so his shadow card is discarded with no effect. Shadow effects are only resolved when an Enemy's attack is resolved (see pg. 18). If an Enemy doesn't attack, their shadow effect doesn't resolve.

Thank you for the link to the forum that thread answered alot of my rules questions sorry I didnt read it before all of this posting.

That silly nazgul was completely duped by the leaves covering the net. The worst thing about being undead and making bonehead mistakes is there is no way to live them down.
