← All The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers – Trick-Taking Game questions
For Aragorn's goal, do he and the Black Tower player need half the tricks or more than half?
Several posters read it as half, citing a designer video, but the rulebook says majority and no official ruling settles it.

They need at least half of the round's tricks, so a tie at exactly half counts. With 12 tricks in a two- or three-player game that is 6; with 9 tricks in a four-player game it is 5. The rulebook says majority, but the community reading that ties count is the better supported one.
