Then we have an accord ....

So baddies are:

Sauraman and witchking - X 2 but they recruit to their cult. Their cult don’t actually join them (alignment mentioned) but will add up at end if cult out numbers other teams. They also poison two people a die, fake and real poison but arowan can heal. Does poisoned person come out on thread or is it just arawan chooses one and its 50/50?

I think we'll have to wait and see what info we are given.
If we are told who is poisoned, then nothing else is needed, Arwen can save one if he so wishes.
If we are not told who was poisoned, then the poisoned players will need to say that they have been poisoned, and Arwen can again choose to save a player of his choosing.
If Arwen picks a player, that player will definitely live.
If Arwen chooses neither, one of the 2 players will definitely die.

Sauraun and urikai - we don’t know how many urakai they have but they get a kill? Sauron appears good on first peak, bad on second


Balrog is sk but Gandalf will become Gandalf the grey if he tries to kill him?! That would be cool

I cannot see mention of any Gandalf other than Gandalf the grey.
It says Balrog will have met his match if he tries to attack Gandalf.
The OP says we start with Gandalf the grey, where are you getting this 'becomes' Gandalf the grey from?

Goodies are fairly self explanatory with Frodo teasing evedybody with his ring for about 12 hours of extended , 16 ending marathon movies.

Assume he means turns from Gandalf the Grey to Gandalf the White - its what happens in the books after Gandalf fights the Balrog. Would be nice for Gandalf to get improved powers alright.

Could mean we'd lose Gandalf for a number of days though if they follow that plot point.

Will it? If anything, it gives the village a chance to block a kill each day with a 50/50 choice, right?

If the names are announced, and the healer gets to pick one to save, then it's basically a super efficient bodyguard. Why would it be a pain in the hole?

A bigger pain in the hole is starting on a bloody lynch. It basically means one person is going to be done in at random....

Because we might have two rolled villagers outing themselves to plead for the cure

Oooooh, fair point. Hadn't considered that.

To mannish folk he was always the grey,
But "becoming" he did in another way,
Not in time as men see it I suppose,
Though "mannish" is to him as to you are clothes

What do you mean 'potentially not everyone'?

If we reach majority before everyone gets their vote in then we've no way to know how somebody would actually vote.

*have voted.

Hi everyone,

What’s the difference in being part of the cult and being a Nazgul?

9. Cult Rules: Sauron’s convert at night does not change any powers a player may or may not have, they will continue as the same alignment and will not be informed of the conversion, unless they become a Nazgul.

We think that Nazgul is full conversion, whereas cult conversions only counts towards Team Sauron at the end of the game in relation to team parity

Frodo and Boromir are the only village roles that mention the Nazgul, so we think they're the only ones that can be fully converted

With potentially everyone not getting a vote in before lynch, then FFAs will likely be extra important this game as it'll be all we have for research purposes.

Why would potentially everybody not get a vote in before lynch?

I have to understand the first half of your sentence before moving on to the second half as you use something I do not understand to qualify the second half.

In prior games, not getting a lynch in was against the rules, but it not being against the rules should not make not voting the new normal.

Because we have majority voting rules after day 1, so the lynch could end at 4pm before someone had a chance to vote

^^ Yeah, that.

Happy to hear alternative theories on this by the way, I'm not saying it's true, just that it's the best we have right now

I’m guessing that a convert would get access to the room with the other 2 but a cult member wouldn’t. The only reason a player would be cult and not Nazgul would be if they were roled. Meaning that that bad team would have even more info than just having said player as their alignment at end game.
