No problem.. Smeagol, Poor Creature. Drop whatever you don’t need to get to 4 and boom.

I’m guessing No Stranger To the Shadows got X-listed because you could have a gazillion rangers in play, right?

not just that, it can make any of the new site numbers have a twilight of 0 (with multiple copies) because it is non-unique, which is way too good Very Happy

By the way, would negative site numbers reduce the amount of twilight from the pool? Here’s my reasoning: you add the site number, the region number, and the number of companions together and that’s your twilight. So, since adding a negative number is the same as subtracting, it would subtract, right?

no, because the site number is a completely different source of twilight, you cannot lose twilight by having a negative source of twilight. the twilight number of a site can go to a minimum of zero.

Whenever a value goes below 0, it is set to 0.
All cards do what they say.

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. Razz

There are a number of ways to lose initiative. Some of the more common ones inlcude:
Gandalf Manager of Wizards
Rohirrim Guard
Smeagol, Poor Creature
Don’t Look at them

The thing to remember is that if you have two Gandalf events in your discard pile you can go down to as few as 2 cards and still continually lose and gain initiative with Erland Dale Counselor. So you can have practically any number of cards in your hand and still get there easily particularly if you are playing with Gandalf, Manager of Wizards.
