So what I dont understand: if the fellowship figure is in a region with a nazgul/shadow army/shadow stronghold, but the fellowship counter is at 1 or more on the fellowship track, the fellowship isnt actually in that region (it is just the last known position), but it appears the shadow player still gets rerolls. Why do the rerolls still apply then? What does a mordor army in lets say moria have to do with the fellowship while I could be way past Lorien by now? Is it just a mechanic that forces the fellowship player to declare?

[@michaellao7264]

Even after rolling a success, do you still have to do rerolls (if you have any) for failed ones? Or should you only do this if you pull an eye?

I'm with phillip i don't know what use the ring means and i can't find it in the rule book

[@PhillipHeliotes]

I figured it out. It's actually really simple. Using the ring just means "take the corruption damage directly"

[@dt8799]

@@PhillipHeliotes Thanks thats how i decided to play but i didn't know if that was correct

[@revcr]

Where to get those dice? =b

[@LonelyManBGs]

I believe both sets are from Chessex -- they have their options on Amazon. I think I typed in blue and then red, and it took a little searching.

@5:01 you said "If the free peoples player uses the ring, the corruption counter.... yadda yadda". What do you mean by that. "Uses the ring". The free peoples player can Use the ring?!

[@blakhand6847]

Correction: the Shadow player gets 1+ on hunt roll if there are more than 1 free people dice in the hunt box not for every blue dice in the box.
E.g: if there is one blue die in the box the roll is still success on 6 if 2 blues than its success on 5 and so on.

[@Whetold]

Not really. You put the dice into hunt box after making the roll. So when Free people declare moving the fellowship he doesn't put dice used to do so instantly into hunt box. (Hence there are no dice in the box yet). Shadow player rolls without any modificators to rolling (success only on 6), and resolving roll - free people player puts dice into hunt box. This is how rulebook says to do, if you follow those instructions - you get +1 for every dice in hunt box
