How can Poison of His Voice do anything to Heart Grown Cold? HGC is
permanent, while PoHV only last till the end of the turn. And since
HGC is played during the M/H-phase, sites have already been played and
are not affected by HGC, right? I assume HGC only affect the
_playing_ of a site, and does not change sites already in play? Or
does it?
*** Heart Grown Cold will cause all affected sites in play to be
swapped out with a site of the appropriate alignment. If the resource
player doesn't own an appropriate version of that site, the hazard
player must provide it. Subsequent sites played must adhere to Heart
Grown Cold's requirements unless, of course, it is removed from play.
--------
What about the question of whether multiple MTaDs can be played during
the organisation phase to reduce the hazard limit to zero?
*** Since the hazard limit is set at the end of the organization phase,
there is no time to play Many Turns and Doublings such that it will
affect the hazard limit, and the hazard player doesn't have the
opprotunity to play hazards in response.
--------
He used a combo that tapped Rivendell during his organization phase,
afterwards he played Arwen at Rivendell as a second company and moved
the characters from company 1 to Arwen's company.
*** This is illegal. If you play a second copy of a haven during the
organization phase with a new character, the new character is considered
a different company, and cannot join the first. Secondly, one of the two
companies must move this turn.
(/snip)
What was the ruling you were referring to making this decission? Because
I beleive you are all wrong on this one
*** "The Haven Untapping Trick" is pretty well established.
The play
above would involve a company moving to its destination site, which is
illegal. If you could phrase your question more specifically, maybe I
could answer it better.
--------
When playing a second item at an Under-deeps site, does the item to be
played depend on the playability as dictated by the site card or the
playability as stated by the item?
*** If the item is playable, it's playable. It doesn't matter where
the playability is listed, be it on the item card or the site card or
whatever.

Re: Leaflock
Does that mean he can only cancel hazards that target the company as a
whole, for example, creature attacks, River and Enchanted Stream?
Or does it mean he can also cancel hazards that target specific
characters in his company, for example, corruption and influence hazards?
*** He can cancel hazards that are played on anything in his company,
be it the whole company, a character in the company, an item on a
character in the company, a permanent event on an item on a character in
the company, etc. The only thing mentioned that he can't cancel is an
event that targets the company's new site, like River.
--------
Can Tom or Leaflock cancel "Pilfer Anything Unwatched"?
*** No.
--------
Re: Withered Lands
is it possible to play this card on the on the path of a site, even if
the company doesn´t travel through on of those regions?
*** Yes, both the company's and the site's site path are in play and
targetable.
--------
when your wizard gets killed, you receive -5 MPs at the end of the
counting (not for character points!). is it the same with characters
like frodo, cirdan, ...??
*** No. Negative character points from normal characters count
against
your character point total.
--------
Re: Clouds
there is no condition to bring this card into play, but it has only
effect, if the doors of night are in play.
*** The above statement is correct.
--------
can Leaflock be used to cancel and subsequently trash a non-minion agent
when he/she attacks? I'd wager not, but is he capable of canceling the
attack?
*** No and no, since an agent attack is not a hazard played on the company.
--------
Some cards (Aware of Their Ways, Longbottom Leaf) state to ‘remove it
from play’ and others (Favor of Valar) state ‘remove Favor of Valar from
the game”. I feel IT means the specific card played and when in states
THE specific card, it means no one else can play the card.
*** In all cases, the copy of the card that is removed from the game
cannot be brought back. If the card is not unique, there is no
restriction on another copy being played by you or your opponent.
--------
Because they are playable at a tapped or untapped site, am I correct in
thinking that I can play as many Noble Steeds/Hounds at an appropriate
site as I have characters available to tap?
*** You are correct.
