Before I make a fool of myself in a game, I want to make sure that the ruling on a card hasn’t changed since my absence. When last I played, it was said that the ability of Saruman, Of Many Colours lasted until the end of the game. Has this changed?
Thanks in advance! |

| I agree with NBarden, but you need the opinion of M_H, bib25 or possible AC to make sure. |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

| I remember when this card was spoiled that members of the Decipher boards said that it lasted until the end of game, which is why I’m seeking clarification. |

All card effects are only in effect while the card is in play, unless it specifically says otherwise.
So Saruman’s strength reducer only works while he is in play. When he leaves play, everyone’s strength returns to normal. |

| But...what about Radagast, the Brown? I think it was ruled that the "move limit" gametext lasts until the end of the turn. |

| Yes, because the rules say that move limit modifiers last until the end of the turn. Other modifiers do not. |

Thanks! Even though this ruined my idea for a deck (and, perhaps, a strategy article). But I’m sure I’ll think of something else. 
And I tried to find the thread on the Decipher message boards. It appears that everything about the set Black Rider has been purged.  |
