~~~~~~~~~~~ Middle Earth: Dark Minions Limited Expansion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Produced by - Iron Crown Enterprises
Release Date - September 1996

     This Limited Edition expansion contains 180 cards and features several
themes to enhance and expand game play. Formost is the "Agent", who is an
individual represented as a hazard permanent-event that moves from site to
sirte (or stays at one site) hindering companies. Grima Wormtongue and Bill
Ferny are two of the more recognizable agents. On the geography side of
things, Under-deep sites are introduced -- these are sites like The
Under-gates of Moria or The Sulfer-deeps of Dol Guldor that are deep in the
earth and only accessible from specific "surface"
host sites. Travel to and from Under-deep kites using the ancient roads of
the Black Enemy is also possible with this expansion. Look for ancient Lost
Items only playable in the under-deep sites. Look for Quests to the most
deadly holds of Sauron, like Dol Guldur and Barad-dur, that give huge
marshalling points to a company if successfully executed. Of course,
DARK MINIONS is rife with creatures, and look for Undead hazard strategies to
take on whole new dimensions.
Each display contains thirty-six 15-card packs which retail for $2.95.
