The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game – Trouble in Tharbad

Heroes enter a ruined city to locate a Dwarf who holds vital information and must keep him alive long enough to extract it. Players navigate encounters with Orcs, spies from Mordor, and hazards in abandoned streets while managing events that threaten the Dwarf’s survival. Gameplay uses cooperative card-driven scenarios: players build decks around heroes and traits, resolve encounter cards, and advance quest objectives while tracking threat and damage. The pack adds a new Silvan hero, copies of new player cards, and support for Silvan and Gondor strategies, plus mechanics using the Doomed X keyword and low-threat deck builds.
