Yeah, have seen it. I like the look of the Ravenhill Scout. I love the theme too - more Dale, but boy does the card seem totally useless. Maybe it won't be in the future but so far it has very little use for the cost, I would say.

I really like Unseen Strike.

i thought you would like strike.....seems very riversongish, but less cartoonish, though i could be wrong, i could barely see them

yeah i really like the idea of ravenhill, though he seems useless, i assume he plays some role in the mountains

just another quick spoiler tidbit that ive came across

Snow Wargs

allies cannot defend while snow warg is attacking

thought id share

That wolf is evil. I'm at work so I don't have the cards with me atm, but I remember another line from the card. Forced: When attacking, Snow Wargs deal 1 damage to defending character if able.

sorpresa.gif whats the engagement level on that baby?????!!!

I think it's below 30, either 28 or 29.

So, this seems to be a REAL difficulty 6. haha

I like it!

So looks like all those wargs in this game quite nasty(same as a wolf of mordor from Osgiliath).

So if i get it right new Snow Warg ahve 2 ability Allies cannot defend against him and when he attack he deal 1 damage to defended hero right?

If i get it right this card is really hasty! How many copies of this card there?

now that is one of the ways how a pro questions the threat of a new encounter card :P

you may be interested in that

looks like we get mountain trolls,freezing cold condition attacthment which gives -2 hit points , and it also hints at arwen being a player/hero card saying that it cant be played with the objective arwen

does anyone know when full spoilers usueally get uploaded to cardgamedb?

QUEST SPOILER:

The freezing condition attachment is especially nasty because during the 3rd quest phase any character with willpower that goes down to 0 gets immediately discarded from the game. Oh, and there are treachery cards that send all of the discarded "snow" cards back into the encounter deck and (of course) the freezing condition is a snow card.

awesome! though it appears i was wrong above- as its not hit points

mountain goblin art=amazing......thats exactly how i imagined goblins when i read the hobbit 10 years ago

There are three copies of that enemy as well as three of every other enemy in that set (mountain troll, mountain warg, and mountain goblin). Real nasty stuff.

yeah i did notice that......must have been a few trail cards and they put the wrong one up- i actually prefer the one that wasnt used

Me too! It looks really impressive and foreboding - I hope they don't get rid of it altogether, though not sure if it would really fit in any of the other packs coming up...

it could be used for Mount Gundabad- the goblin hq of the misty mountains- that must be pretty epic

Excellent! So it's not a lost cause just yet, then! I'd love to see that looming up at me in the staging area (sometimes I leave stuff there because it looks pretty, depending on my mood... explains why I lose so often, probably...)

haha i do the same, makes me loose so much .....as for gundabad that was pure speculation, and being in the northern reaches of the mountains would take us far from our paths in this cycle, though i think it would be great to have a quick journey there (elrohir to the group- 'someone tell my sister we're going for a bit of a detour......')

Ok i already try it today with my friend. Play 2 games. 1 lose, 1 win. Quest is interesting but in my opinion they should to make Caradras Immune to player card effect. We didn get any snow storm and was really lucky with Dunhere to kill all Snow wargs in staging area before they even can come to us. New Uruk discard attachment ability is really nasty!

I wonna try it solo tomorrow and something tell me it will be not easy......

I try it solo. Quite cool! Hard quest but there is some trick to make it more easy. Anyway enemies there really powerful beasts. Snow wargs is really nasty and Mountain wargs more powerful then other wargs from core set.

Some tips:

You must try explored Caradras on the staging area before you come to third quest card. Otherwise you will lose many characters and questing will be really difficult. Arwen really helps you a lot but on the last stage you can lose her easy cose Caradras make every questing characters -1 will power and quest card say: discard all characters with 0 will power. Every time thanks to frozen cold i lose 1 hero on the last stage.

Quest is really different to all other previous quests before, quite hard, interesting as well.

Congratulation FFG good job!!! Good begin of the new cycle!

There was some discussion on BGG as to whether this helps or not. There is no restriction on moving C out of your victory display to fulfil 2B's Forced, which doesn't say anything about moving C from the staging area to become the active location, just that C becomes the active location. Probably will get ruled that it won't come out of the victory display.

Hmmmm yes here is some unclear rule. Move Caradras from Victory display or not? Looks like we need some special rule about cards in Victory display.

Finally, Redhorn Gate is due to be delivered in the UK 13th March. I need this pack in my life!
