--- Nightmare Decks for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game transform familiar scenarios into intensely challenging Nightmare Mode experiences with deadlier threats and surprises (22 words). Key mechanics include: - *Encounter deck overhaul* Introduces 20 new alternate encounter cards and instructions to reshape the original scenario's deck. - *Card removal setup* Nightmare Mode card specifies which older cards to remove from the original encounter deck. - *Additional rules* Includes a card with new game rules to heighten difficulty. - *Increased peril* Features deadlier enemies, darker locations, and terrifying surprises for a nightmarish revisit of known quests. Nightmare Decks for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game enable players to replay favorite scenarios in an escalated Nightmare Mode, incorporating deadlier enemies, darker locations, and more terrifying surprises through new alternate encounter cards and setup instructions that fundamentally reshape the original encounter deck. Each deck provides exactly twenty new encounter cards to integrate with the matching original quest, a Nightmare Mode card detailing removals from the original setup, and an additional card outlining modified game rules, creating tense, twist-filled journeys through familiar territory. Initially released via Fantasy Flight Games' Game Night Kits for retail outlets, they later became available as print-on-demand products. ---
