The Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle-earth – The Shire Promo Tile

Description

--- **TLDR:** The Shire enables playing any visible card from the current chapter to one's play area, ignoring availability; uniquely skips Fortress placement on the central board. Key mechanics include: - *Forced card play:* Allows selecting and playing a visible card from the current chapter directly to the player's play area. - *Availability override:* Bypasses normal availability restrictions for the chosen card. - *Landmark exception:* Deviates from standard Landmark rules by not placing a Fortress on the central board. The Shire functions as a special Landmark that permits players to play any visible card from the current chapter into their personal play area, regardless of its availability status. This mechanic overrides typical restrictions, enabling flexible card acquisition and deployment. Distinct from other Landmarks, it eliminates the standard procedure of placing a Fortress on the central board, streamlining the action and focusing solely on the card play to the play area. ---
