Pretty sure the attacker still needs 6s in a siege no matter what.

[@SterlingKnightGamers]

no its only in the first round

[@SterlingKnightGamers]

@Mr Wizzykin wow I can't believe i missed that after so many games. That would make being the free peoples so much easier!

[@JGLWolvencry]

@@SterlingKnightGamers That is just completely wrong. Every siege battle is hits only "6" for the shadow. Cities and fortifications are first round "6", then "5"; check the rules, cause I just checked both 2nd edition and collector´s edition myself.

[@SterlingKnightGamers]

I'm so sorry, I can't believe my friends and I were so wrong about that

[@InformWill]

@@SterlingKnightGamers how many games did you play with the rules incorrect? I bet the usual FP player is relieved now you've realised lol

[@otb6497]

In general is it better to attack minis tirith first or helms deep

Hey. What is the song at the start ? It sounds really cool :D

I wonder if he is talking about tips WITH the expansions because I don't have them yet. I thought he was talking about tips for the shadow player wi th the expansions when I heard about the ents. Though I only remember if gandalf the Grey is upgraded to gandalf the white he is teleported to fangorn (if he dies) and if saruman is in play but only he is in Orthanc he dies. Am I correct?

[@jeremiahlee742]

Oh i know there is another way to upgrade gandalf

This is without the expansions. The expansions change the strategies quite a bit. The ents can be used with some cards in the base game too.
