So two of the unique locations require you to exhaust your heroes or to pay resource tokens to place progress tokens on them. I couldn't see a restriction, so I guess that means I can exhaust all my heroes during the combat phase and that will get me three progress tokens on Old Harbor ?
That sounds a bit silly, because if you play solo with a lore mono deck all you have to do is to play
Risk Some Light
to make sure that you won't draw an
Osgiliath
location during the first couple of turns (and to choose an enemy with a high engaging cost). That way you could finish the quest after two turns...
Other than that it would make the quest more challenging if there was a restriction.
