The TOC spoil card is 18R82.
Cost 3
Orc Culture
*Grond, Forged With Black Steel
Possession - Support Area
To play, spot an <orc> minion.
Each time the fellowship moves in the regroup phase, you may discard this possession to search the Free Peoples player’s draw deck and remove up to 2 Free Peoples cards from the game.
"Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond!"

An  card, then. A new Grishnakh?
Edit: Neat, but it seems broken. Here’s a quick "translation" to make it a bit more legible. 
 • Grond, Forged With Black Steel
Possession • Support Area
To play, spot an minion.
Each time the fellowship moves in the regroup phase, you may discard this possession to search the Free Peoples player’s draw deck and remove up to 2 Free Peoples cards from the game.
"Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond! Grond!"

The way Grond reads, wouldn’t we be able to remove ’any’ two FP cards from the game? That could rape the FP companions!!

| It should also say "...and remove up to 2 Free Peoples cards revealed from the game", or something similiar. As written, one could interprit that you could choose to discard FP cards from play, I believe. REALLY X-listable. |

Check out Lasting Alliances, The Road Ahead, and Ages of Middle-earth, three of my five dream card sets that make up Wars of the Ring. Oh, and I have a trade list now!
Also, if you're into DCs or RPGs (or even if you're not!), check out Realms of Middle-earth, the sequel to CG's "DC Adventure", Realms of the North! |

are you sure it could read that way, because it says that you search the deck and choose, implying that the cards are chosen from the searched deck.
the card is good but definately not broken. People need to get a grip and stop yelling for every good orc rare to be x-listed. |

Yikes. |

It’s implied, sure. But not out-right stated. I’m just playing devil’s advocate in saying that someone could interprit it differently, and have a decent case for it as the card is written now. |

Implied vs. actual text. Big difference.
I’m playing my shadow w/ orcs, grond, and forced march. I ’MAKE’ you move again (triggering grond). I search your deck, and discard two of your companions in play (actual text vs. implied). I drop even more orcs on your depleated fellowship and eat the RB.
Nasty.
