Since a Shadow presence in the fellowship region gives the Shadow a hunt re-roll, and the Nazgul have unlimited movement, wouldn't it make sense to always move some Nazgul and nearby armies with the fellowship position just to get that benefit? I think this rule is unfair, and maybe I'm missing the point, but why wouldn't you just follow Sam and Frodo with some armies all of the time? Is this what everyone does normally?

As with any other strategy, it depends on the circumstances. It's fairly easy to keep a Nazgul with the Fellowship, provided you have the Character dice, but it's not always easy or prudent to keep an Army there.
Bear in mind that you only get one re-roll for Nazgul, no matter how many are in the same Region with the Fellowship (unless you're using the new Witch-King from the Expansion).

Hi, I have a question regarding this as well: So, if the fellowship is revealed and I move a Nazgul into the same region before it is hidden again, then I would get an extra die roll once the next hunt starts, correct? What happens, if I move the Nazgul to the last known position, after the fellowship is hidden again and has moved already? Does it still count for one extra die? Two other questions  even if I roll two sixes in the hunt roll, I still get to draw only one hunt tile, right? Can a companion, that was seperated from the fellowship and isn't attached to an army, be moved several times? If the FPP would spend several character dice on him? Or is he restricted like the armies are? We played the game for the first time tonight and there are still so many things which we didn't really get  Thank you for maintaining this site, it's really great! |

What happens, if I move the Nazgul to the last known position, after the fellowship is hidden again and has moved already? Does it still count for one extra die? As long as the Nazgul is in the Region with the Fellowship marker (the Last Known Position), you get the re-roll. It doesn't matter what the number on the Fellowship Track is. Two other questions even if I roll two sixes in the hunt roll, I still get to draw only one hunt tile, right? Correct. The number of successes rolled only matters if an Eye tile is drawn, in which case the Hunt damage is equal to the number of successes. Can a companion, that was seperated from the fellowship and isn't attached to an army, be moved several times? If the FPP would spend several character dice on him? Or is he restricted like the armies are? Neither Armies nor Characters are restricted. You can move them as many times as you have the proper Action dice to do so. The only restriction on Army movement is that you can't move the same Army twice using the same Army die. In other words, when using an Army (or Army/Muster) die to move two Armies, they must be two different Armies. No individual Army unit may be moved twice by the same Action die. |
