Encounter Sets
"Trouble in Tharbad" is played with an encounter deck built with all the cards from the following encounter sets: Trouble in Tharbad and Misty Mountain Orcs. (Misty Mountain Orcs can be found in The Voice of Isengard deluxe expansion to The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game.)
Threat Elimination Level
Stage 1B of this scenario reads: "Time 4. Forced: After the last time counter is removed from this quest, lower each player's threat elimination level by 10 for the remainder of the game. Then, place 4 time counters on this stage."
A player's "threat elimination level" is the amount of threat at which a player is eliminated. This number is typically 50. However, in this scenario, a player's threat elimination level may be lower than 50. If a player's threat is ever equal to or higher than their current threat elimination level, they are eliminated from the game (see page 22 of the rules for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game for more concerning player elimination).
Attacks Against Nalir
Nalir is an objective-ally in Trouble in Tharbad. An attack made against Nalir works the same as an attack made against the player who controls Nalir, with one exception: undefended damage from an attack made against Nalir must be assigned to Nalir.
