Der Hobbit: Hin und zurück

You may rotate or mirror path dice when placing them; rotating/mirroring changes which edges connect. "Connecting" means path edges line up to continue a route, while "entering" means the path actually goes into a specific space rather than merely touching it (see page 5).

Players draft dice in turn order from the pool, picking dice one at a time according to the drafting procedure, and then use those dice on their turn; path-action dice are the dice you place to draw path segments on the map (see page 4).

You gain and mark bread as specified by actions and events and track it on your map where required (marking rules shown on page 6); certain scenarios include explicit bread-movement rules that move or consume bread during the adventure (see pages 20 and 22).

Swords are collected and marked as a resource following the acquisition rules, and they are used for combat checks and can affect end-of-adventure scoring as detailed in scenario scoring steps (see pages 6 and 9).

The black die represents special threats/events and is used or modified by scenario rules; some scenarios ignore or alter the black die (for example Mirkwood ignores it) and some actions call for private black-die rolls for hidden checks (see pages 11, 19, 27, and 30).

The Burglar action grants specific special moves and options described under burglar actions, and guests have their own placement, handling, and scoring rules—follow the burglar-action rules and guest rules for placement and end-of-adventure scoring (see pages 7 and 9).
