ATHLETICS to Protect Companion? Isn't this change strange? Battle is a skill that cannot be left out of a combat task. Yes — a few of us on the Discord disagree with the change. Athletics already has a multitude of uses (while also being a STRENGTH skill), while Battle is very limited in its applic...

Missed the TOR cut off with this one, but Gorgol’s artwork doesn’t match with the description in TftLL — there it says “These Orcs are led by an Orc-chieftain named Gorgol, who wields a mighty axe taken from the tombs of the Dwarf-kings in Gundabad.” However, the artwork in the Moria book has him wi...

I agree that Fróra’s Patron Advantage is underwhelming. 1 Treasure Point is a pittance compared to the other advantages offered by the Moria-relevant Patrons. Recommend reworking this into something else, or upping the Treasure reward to 1d6, for example. Linklite did some maths on the Discord chann...

I’d love to see some art for ‘Naglur, Sword of Sauron’. Seems a shame to leave him to the imagination!

And maybe a unique Fell Ability to help elevate him to something a bit more special than just an orc that will take longer to kill.

Regarding the “I too once passed the Dimrill Gate” stretch goal — though Gandalf’s and Aragorn’s journeys through Moria are covered, the second part of the stretch goal, namely “how your players might have accompanied them” seems to be rather… minimal. It basically comes down to “Oh, they probably d...

Consistency issue, p.94-95 in ‘The Last Redoubt of the Dwarves’: “At the same time, the Last Redoubt is so well hidden that no Orc or scavenger has discovered it in a thousand years.” But it says beforehand, “Those who fell still lie here, although a thousand years has reduced them to bare bones. Go...

Posting here too as it has consequences for the fight against the Balrog: Regarding the High Elf Cultural Virtue ‘Might of the Firstborn’, is it correct that a player may activate it multiple times in a round (ie a player is only limited by the size of their Hope pool)? At the moment, “ping-pong” si...

Regarding the High Elf Cultural Virtue ‘Might of the Firstborn’, is it correct that a player may activate it multiple times in a round? At the moment, “ping-pong” situations can occur where a Might 2 (or more) enemy activates a Fell Ability with Hate/Resolve, the High Elf cancels it with MotFB, the ...

This seems more of a balancing problem with the opponent itself than with the rule. A single Barrow-wight is not meant to pose a serious threat to a group of 4 Player-heroes, unless they are very inexperienced characters, or the Wight managed to catch them by surprise with its Dreadful Spells.
