no. just make it -1 for each Nazgul IMHO, maybe -2 if a huner nazgul, as is way to nice.

No fanfare necessary...you all know what region the fellowship enters at Site 4 on this sitepath.  However, some of these may still surprise you. Enjoy!
Hills of Hollin 
Site 4
Plains. Each time an opponent makes you draw a card or discard a card from hand, exert one of your characters. If you do not, that opponent may add or remove .
This one’s designed mainly to work with Saruman, his artifacts, and some other  stuff. But there are cards from  and other cultures you’d expect to see around this time that combo nicely with this as well.
Redhorn Gate
Site 4
Mountain. When the fellowship moves to this site, wound each Hobbit companion or add  .
"We cannot stay here! This will be the death of the Hobbits!" Need I say more?
Pass of Caradhras (reprint)
Site 4
Mountain. Shadow: Spot an minion to play a weather card from your draw deck (limit one per turn).
An old favorite of mine given new life by the grand return (and expansion) of weather cards.
Hollin Gate 
Site 4
River. Marsh. Watcher in the Water may be spotted here (even if not in play).
There are a lot of cards in this set that spot the Watcher, if you remember, including (obviously) some of the tentacles. This lets you do all that without needing the luck of getting the Watcher right then and there...though if you DO, the Shadow number pays for the Watcher anyway. You win either way...unless you’re the FP player.
The Black Pit
Site 4
Underground. The twilight cost of each minion played here is -1 (to a minimum of 1).
I do believe this is the first (and only) Site 4 with a Shadow number less than . I’m sure you can understand why when you note the text, though. Mwaha.
Mines of Moria
Site 4
Underground. Possessions and artifacts may be played from your discard pile as if played from hand.
Nothing fancy, though certainly can make things interesting for ALL players, eh?
Chamber of Records
Site 4
Underground. Maneuver: Discard your tale or artifact from play or from hand to heal a character of that card’s culture.
An obvious nod to Balin’s Tomb, though different enough to hopefully be interesting on its own.
Twenty-First Hall
Site 4
Underground. When the fellowship moves to this site, each player must discard a card from hand.
Nothing to say here, really. Moving on....
Moria Crossroads
Site 4
Underground. When the fellowship moves to this site, you may spot a Dwarf to draw a card (or 2 cards if you can also spot a Wizard).
Very similiar to a post-Shadows site from the same location: Moria Guardroom. But again, hopefully different enough to be interesting and still useful. You tell me!  |

I think this has too much text, and I think it would be fine to remove the get-out clause.

Fair enough.

As much as I applaud your ingenuity, would it not be a lot easier to make this a Bridge of Khazad-Dum that plays the Watcher from your draw deck for a reduced price?

Fun. I would perhaps not include artifacts, though.

Yeah, it’s alright. I normally put Moria Guardroom as site 2 though!

The wording is odd. "If you do not"? You dont have a choice it says "exert" not "you may exert".
Redhorn Gate

Oof harsh. Realistic tie in but wound is still sick. Exert would be better.
Hollin Gate

Thats awesome i NEED this card lol.
The Black Pit
Site 4
Underground. The twilight cost of each minion played here is -1 (to a minimum of 1).
Wow nasty but i like. Concerned about the abuse this could lead to but nonetheless, nice.
Mines of Moria
Site 4

Nah dont like it, yes its interesting but it completely invalidates poseesion removal, making grond useless and a whole host of others. Veto.

Wouldnt say from hand, its too versatile.

I’ll make some tweaks on the last batch a little later. For now, time is short and I want to get the next site up, so here we go!
Site 5 has always been rather limited in terms of variety. The King block only had four to choose from, the Tower block had five, and the Fellowship block, of course, only ever had one:
The Bridge of Khazad-dûm  (reprint)
Site 5
Battleground. Underground. Shadow: Play The Balrog from your draw deck or hand; The Balrog’s twilight cost is -6.
However, I have decided to add a LITTLE more variety outside of the reprint, so here are a few more to choose from. Enjoy!
Old Moria 
Site 5
Battleground. Underground. While you can spot a Dwarf or Wizard here, each minion is roaming.
Second Hall
Site 5
Underground. Each  and character is strength +1.
Azanulbizar 
Site 5
Regroup: Spot your minion to make the fellowship move again this turn (if the move limit allows).
Dimrill Stair 
Site 5
Mountain. When the fellowship moves to this site during the regroup phase, the Free Peoples player may heal a companion of each culture. |

It makes a lot of sense for FotR block that there’s only 1, however. After all, to leave Moria you have to cross the Bridge of Khazad-Dum.
