Encounter Deck
The heading above is added by the transcriber; the sheet prints this paragraph without a heading.
"Encounter at Amon Dîn" is played with an encounter deck built with all the cards from the following encounter sets: Encounter at Amon Dîn and Ravaging Orcs. (Ravaging Orcs can be found in the Heirs of Númenor deluxe expansion to The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game.)
"Villagers X" Keyword
Villagers is a new keyword found on location and quest cards in the Encounter at Amon Dîn scenario. The villagers keyword creates tokens that represent the people living near to Amon Dîn who need the heroes to rescue them.
When a location with the villagers keyword enters play, or a quest card with villagers is revealed, place resource tokens on it equal to the specified value. Resource tokens placed on a location or quest this way are villager tokens. Villager tokens do not count as resources.
Example: Burning Farmhouse is revealed from the encounter deck with Villager 4 so the first player adds it to the staging area with 4 resource tokens on it.
When a villager token is discarded, return that token to the token bank.
Rescued Villagers & Dead Villagers
When setting up the Encounter at Amon Dîn scenario, stage 1A instructs the players to put both the Rescued Villagers and Dead Villagers objective cards into the staging area. These cards represent the ultimate fate of the villagers being attacked by Ghulat and his orcs. During the game scenario effects will place villager tokens on Rescued Villagers and damage tokens on Dead Villagers. In order to win the game, the players will need to collect more villager tokens on Rescued Villagers than damage tokens on Dead Villagers.
