Is the Heart supposed to be easier when you reach it for the first time? Or did I just bullied it?

First time reaching the heart (Hard difficulty), and this happened. I've seen some videos online and it's supposed to even spawn lots of monsters (But maybe they're time-triggered and it didn't have a chance?).

Legendary Bounty Hunter or Moonshiner?

As title. I'm late for the party and only started playing the online a few weeks ago. I'm bounty hunter, trader and collector.

I have 19 gold bars and was wondering if I should upgrade my BH license (I'm still level 6 in the rol), or starting my Moonshiner adventure.

Considering the current event and all... Any recommendations??

Thanks!!

I'm still a bit confused about some campaign rules. I just played and finally beated with no casualties "The Ring goes South". At the preparation, it gives you 4 items to add to your hands and the initial player deck...

Do I keep these cards for the next scenarios after winning? My assumption is yes, because the campaign card tells something like "Players have adquired these cards". And if so, can I distribute them to either of my 2 decks in anyway I want? (Cause during this scenario I had to put one on each hand and add the other 2 to the starting player deck)

Thanks!!

Buenas!

He quedado con un vendedor (Es una tienda realmente) y me ha dicho que prefiere efectivo o pago por wallapop, que no quieren bizum.

Mi duda, he activado el monedero de wallapop con la movida nueva esta de mangopay, y me he leido los terminos, pero por lo que leo, si usas el pago en persona (Escaneando el QR y eso) y usas pago con tarjeta (porque no tengo saldo) te cobran una comisión....

Alguién sabe de cuánto es la comisión¿? porque siendo wallapop no me fio una mierda de presentarme sin efectivo y que Walla me meta una comisión de 3 euros (Cuando estoy quedando en persona para evitar un envío de 4€).

Y por lo que veo también se puede elegir Paypal para pagar de ese modo (A través de wallapop en persona), pero no me queda claro si también tiene comisión.

Gracias!!

This is round 2, and I'm already facing 3 Nazguls. The Hide mechanic is just broken...

If you avoid the Nazguls, the threat just skyrocket. And if you face them, you're dead (def 4 and atack 5, wtf).

I had a nazgul killing me 3 heroes in a turn (Failed hide so he faced me and attacked, then he attacked in the combat phase, killed another hero, and the shadow card made him swich player and fucking attacking again to my other deck).

If you don't send your characters to the mission you're fucked, and if you send them and then an encounter card have "Hide" you're fucked too cause your characters are exhausted.

The encounter deck is full of surge cards...

The locations flood the preparation area...

How is this the first mission of a Campaign? Did anyone playtested this at all?

I'm new to the game, and really enjoyed the 3 core missions a lot. They're balanced and fun, but this isn't fun in any way, it's simply frustrating.

Am I over reacting, or is this just a bad mission and things get better later on in the campaign?

Sorry... /Rant over

So, I've had a pretty decent LotR collection for a while but it never hit the table until yesterday, finally. I though it would be more similar to Marvel Champions, but I'm so happy to see the differences are really noticeable, and it feels like a completely different game that can co-exist in my collection with MC.

There are a couple of things I'm wondering. First, is the difficulty. I played 4 games and quickly realised how brutal the game can be, because of how fragile heroes are (And how awful some treacheries and shadow cards can be). I notice that there's no "expert" or "hard mode" or anything... instead there's an "easy mode" (So the opposite from Marvel). So, how does it compare to the difficulty in the other LCGs? Would you guys consider "easy" to be the normal mode, and "normal" the hard version (Like, equivalent to Marvel "expert")? I assume the most experienced players play normal every mission, but for more casual and new players, do you guys play them in "easy" until you beat them?

And, second question. After failing at the 2nd core mission (River) using one of the 2 dual colour decks proposed in the core (I know, they're not super efficient, I'm just familiarizing with the cards), I tried again but playing 2 handed (Using the 2 proposed dual decks) in normal difficulty, and while it wasn't a walk in the park, I was able to beat the scenario without too much hassle. Which lead me to think... am I missing something or the difficulty drops drastically when playing multiplayer vs true solo?? Because, unlike Marvel or Arkham where most things scale with the number of players (Villain health, threat on schemes, the clues to gather in the arkham locations...), here it seems that the only difference is that you get one encounter card per player (Which also happens in Arkham and Marvel), so, the benefit from playing with 6 heroes and 2 full hands seems way, way higher than the difficulty added by that extra encounter. Not to mention that you get to benefit from really good keywords like "sentinel" or "ranged" which are useless in true solo... I know both in Arkham and Marvel, it is also easier to win 2 handed than solo, but not to this extend. Am I missing any multiplayer rules, maybe?

Thanks in advance!! :)
