Look at the gametext of this odd card:

To play, spot an Uruk-hai minion and you must control a site.

The way it’s written you can CLEARLY understand this as "to play you have to spot a minion and then control a site" when it should just be "To play spot an Uruk-hai minion and a site you control".

I don’t know what the guy was thinking... I mean, I don’t know how to create a card, but after 4 or 5 years playing this game I can at least write one Confused

Ha! Ive read that card a thousand times and never once seen it the way youe have leo! I suppose youre right. In the older sets it used to say take control of a site, but recently cards say you may control a site, so you are actually right, in can be interpreted either way. If you read it you must (own) control a site it doesnt do anything but if you read it as a command; you MUST (now) take control of a site you get free sites!

Nice GP

... *headdesk*

I always took it to mean "To play, spot an Uruk-hai minion and take control of a site." Because if they meant "...and spot a site you control," they would’ve said "...and spot a site you control"! Evil or Very Mad

I see you laughing at me. Crying or Very sad
