  1. 9 out of 10

    This is a contender for my favorite deluxe expansion (I have all regular releases) right up there with The Grey Havens. The first scenario pits you against men on horses chasing you across plains; it's a refreshing change of theme, and is the right difficulty for a deck-testing scenario. The second is a more refined and slightly harder take on the mechanics from The Steward's Fear from the third cycle, and the third is a very difficult but thematic jail break. lt also introduces contracts and the One Ring to the card pool. All in all, this is a great release.

    I have little to say about the adventures presented, but want people to know that this is, IMO, the second best set of player cards in the game. The One Ring and it’s related synergies provide the players with tools that are well balanced and thematic. I’ve been playing this game since it came out and it’s had its ups and downs. The cycle that follows this expansion is delightful in that it makes for an impressive improvement in player cards. It seems to allow the player leeway as it goes rummaging around middle earth with Bilbo and The One. You would think that was always the case, but no. It wasn’t. This expansion made that possible.

Confront a dangerous cult in A Shadow in the East, the eighth deluxe expansion for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game! The power of Mordor stretches across the realm, darkening the hearts of those who fall under its influence and threatening the once-peaceful lands of Rhûn. Only Middle-earth’s bravest heroes can hope to stand against the spread of evil when a band of desperate Dorwinions come to ask for aid. Your team of heroes will embark on a dangerous journey into darkness in three new quests that take you down the River Running, to the capital city of Dorwinion, and further into the Hills of Rhûn.

With new hero and player cards to further customize your adventures, this deluxe expansion kicks off the "Vengeance of Mordor" cycle with grand fanfare, introducing the game’s first double-sided hero, as well as a new version of The One Ring and a new card type in the form of contracts. Assemble your Fellowship and prepare for a daring mission in the shadow of Mordor!
