Amon Din

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

Got it in my shop today. Will go to pick up and try ...

Play it with friends Glaurung, it will be too easy solo

Im not doubt about it..... easy

Actually after HON and NM is boring to get quests like this.

We need NM straight away in every AP. Im pretty sure mechanic is cool but should be challenge too right? We need NM straight away in every new box

played this first time today and loved it! great quest that is around the right difficulty for me, its also very thematic.

. ....also it threw quite a few nasty combos....listen to this...

shadow cards...i got the orc arsonist, the scourge of mordor, and the other one that gives shadow cards per player...i ended up with 9 shadow cards in the end!!! (it was well shuffled)

it's still easy in multiplayer, as well.

Than that officially makes this expansion not something I would like to buy since I don't really want another easy quest right now since pretty much every single quest up to date is easy. (Thank goodness FFG is solving this problem with Nightmare mode. And I'm sure that even Nightmare mode might not be too hard when we get tons of new cards.)

I tried some modifications for Amon Din today. Worked out pretty well, as I lost both games. [Ok, the first was due to running out of threat, as I got that card that raises your threat by one point for each token on "dead villagers" (nine in my case) and it surged the other treachery with "doomed 2". It was the last turn and I had only three progress left to win the game, and quested with 15 WP. My threat evel was 39.]

The first modification, obviously, is to discard Lord Alcaron.

The second modification is to discard all HoN encounter cards and to play the game only with the Amon Din set. The game gets thus also more thematic, as there are no villains who try to kill you while you're saving their families. Locations loose ther victory points and get discarded to the discard pile.

If that's still to easy you might add a third modification: "All locations are immune to player card effects."

Jut got i play couple of times with my Tactic/Spirit deck bulid up only with core and both Hobbits expansion include a heroes.

Sure i remove Lord Alcaron but still is very easy solo........Maybe in Multy player is more difficult but im doubt about it.

We already play this game for years and they feed us some appetiser!??? Command FFG give us some cool quests!!! and give us a NM straight away from the box!

I just want to add this, selling Nightmare after a year or so can make sense for the early quests but I totally agree with the above. For future, adding a Nightmare mode should be as easy as adding the Easy mode - straight from the box, you just make a different coloured ring over some card numbers. I don't mind buying every product they create, but buying the quests twice does annoy me.

You know im big fan of Tolkien and also fan of the card game. I dont mind pay twice. But i hate when in my favorite game i can easy win every thing and my favoriite evil charachters looks like a babies. Wait for 1 year or some? not funny at all. I play MeCCG Decipher LOTR ccg as well. So im veteran of the Lotr card game. I love art in this game. I love idea of this game too. But now this game is get boring. too easy. I never though before i can say this about Lotr card game.

yes in competive format better you play better opponent you get. So this always exiting. But here is looks like im reach the top.

No any my friends wonna play this game. Most of the them play Android. and they right. Android is really cool!
