Description

--- "The Oath and The Caves of Nibin-dûm" is a standalone scenario pack for The Lord of the Rings LCG, challenging players to rescue Woodmen captives from Goblins in Mirkwood. Key mechanics include: - *Two adventures* The Oath and The Caves of Nibin-dûm, forming a two-part quest. - *Boon and burden cards* New cards enhancing replayability with the Revised Core Set. - *Flexible campaign integration* Playable standalone or as an extension of the Mirkwood Paths campaign. - *Narrative-driven objectives* Track Goblins, rescue survivors, or avenge them amid forest perils. The Oath and The Caves of Nibin-dûm is a standalone scenario pack for The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game, originally from the Limited Collector’s Edition and updated with new boon and burden cards for the Revised Core Set. Players control a Fellowship of heroes who, after escaping Dol Guldur and resting in Lórien, discover a razed Woodman village in Mirkwood's eaves—marked by goblin arrows and black smoke. Swearing an oath to rescue captives dragged to the goblins' lair or avenge their deaths, heroes follow the trail into the dark woods. The pack delivers two linked adventures pitting players against goblin forces, with success hinging on tracking fiends through Mirkwood without becoming lost, playable independently or appended to the core set's Mirkwood Paths campaign. ---
