Minutes after we made an announcement challenging players to come up with a Race to Mount Doom Site Text that would be used in Online Leagues, the submissions starting rolling in and before long, we were swamped with hundreds of emails -- many each with hundreds of suggestions! Thanks to everyone for their enthusiastic ideas!
We reviewed every suggestion that came our way and judged on creativity, proper wording and compatibility with pre-existing cards (a lot of site suggestions were incredibly amusing, but also invited some seriously broken card combinations!). After much deliberation, we found 9 sites that were creative, well-worded and offered great curve balls for game play and deck construction (and that's what the Race to Mount Doom is all about!).
- Franky... Skirmish: Play a possession on your minion.
- Foul Tentacle...Your Ring-bearer (except Frodo or Sam) is resistance +3.
- Demos99... Each time your fellowship moves, you may place a companion (except the
Ring-bearer) in the dead pile to make the move limit +1.
- CoS... Fellowship: add (3) to play a companion from your draw deck; he or she
comes into play exhausted.
- Rubber_Chicken... Wound one of your characters after each skirmish in which you did not
play a skirmish event.
- Evil Ducky... Each companion with resistance 3 or less is strength -1.
- Goldenrod... Skirmishes are resolved in an order decided by the Shadow player.
- Ulaire Enquea... Each wraith is strength +1 for each wound on a character in its skirmish.
- Pranky... At the start of the regroup phase, you may discard your [Dunland]
possession to take control of a site.
Congratulations to all the winners! These nine players will receive a special One Ring Site Path token for their contributions! We'd like to thank everyone for their ideas and enthusiasm! The quantity and quality of feedback was impressive we are glad so many of you enjoyed the brainstorming. We might announce some more winners next month so stay tuned and keep racing to Mount Doom!
