General Strategy

Caradhras Has Not Forgiven Us is an incredibly situational maneuver event that can discard an exhausted companion. At the cost of [3], Caradhras Has Not Forgiven Us almost necessitates the use of multiple copies of Saruman's Ambition, particularly in Fellowship Block where excess twilight is more scarce. While discarding a companion such as Aragorn, Ranger of the North who has just exhausted himself for a massive defender bonus can be an unpleasant surprise for the Free Peoples player, Caradhras Has Not Forgiven Us can possibly weaken one of the most potent [Isengard] events--Savagery to Match Their Numbers.

Greed and Ulaire Enquea, Lieutenant of Morgul are far stronger crowd control options across all formats. Like many [Isengard] events, Caradhras Has Not Forgiven Us is far more likely to be seen in sealed play than in casual or competitive play.

Strengths and Weaknesses

• Potentially makes Savagery to Match Their Numbers less potent
