Description

--- Nightmare Decks transform The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game scenarios into challenging Nightmare Mode experiences. Key mechanics include: - *Encounter deck overhaul* Introduces 20 new alternate encounter cards to reshape the original scenario's deck. - *Card removal and rules* Nightmare Mode card specifies older cards to remove; additional card provides new game rules. - *Increased difficulty* Features deadlier enemies, darker locations, and terrifying surprises for nightmarish twists. Nightmare Decks for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game enable players to revisit favorite scenarios in intensified Nightmare Mode, incorporating deadlier enemies, darker locations, and surprising elements via new alternate encounter cards and setup instructions that reshape the original encounter deck. Each deck includes twenty new encounter cards tailored to a matching quest, a Nightmare Mode card detailing removals from the original setup, and a card with supplementary rules, creating tense, unfamiliar journeys through familiar territory. Initially released in Fantasy Flight Games' Game Night Kits for retail, they later became available as print-on-demand products. ---
