My questions is how minion cultures overlap since they have been changed by the game developers as the game as progressed. Examples:
Did Moria Sauron become Orc . So if a minion says you must spot a Orc minion to play can I also spot a Moria minion or a Sauron. What about the other way around.
Also what about Isengard and Uruk-hai
and Raider and Men .
It seems like especially for isengard and uruk-hai and raider and evil men that these should be transferable.

What happened was when the set Shadows came out, Decipher decided instead of mixing different races (Orc, Uruk-hai, ect.) in the different cultures, that each race would get their own culture. Orcs are now Orc, uruk-hai are now Uruk-hai, and evil men are now Men. Cards that say "To play, spot an Orc minion." for example means you must have a minion of that culture in play. If a card such as Broad-Bladed Sword were being played, it could target an Uruk-hai uruk-hai because the card doesn’t specify culture, it only specifys race. So they aren’t transferable as far as culture goes, but if you play a card that specifys race and not culture, these can target the newer-culture minions.

HA! Good one bob. Yeah the death of the old cultures was tragic, and the only overlap was Wraith and to an extent uruks as some cards say urk-hai not Uruk-hai. But again why the Wraith stayed the same while everything else changed is only explained by bto’s quote above.

Just making sure everyone knows, those cultures aren’t interchangable.

I’m not sure if any of you actually specified that.

Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true.
