part 5 is now up, final video.

 During the engagement part of the fifth tutorial, when the player is engaging Dol Guldor Orcs, a Gimli  card appears to be attached to a Gimli card! In fact, this seems to be the case for the whole video. What is the strategy here?

 I can only assume that the second Gimli is some kind of mistakeoversight.  The rules don't seem to allow for anything remotely like attaching a second copy of a hero to himself. 

Exhausting Legolas the other way freaked me out. Or maybe there's something to be read between the lines about dwarves going one way, elves going another way .

After rewatching video 4, the card attachedto Gimli sholdbe dwarven Axe.  The second copy of Gimli is most certainly a mistake.

I do have to say, I love that every thread seems to have at least one joke at Legolas' (or Legolarz', as per the video) expense.

Art is just asking for it. Though I wasn't kidding about the counterclockwise exhaust freaking me out. You do it one waythe other, but do it consistently that way, you don't go mixing them !

In all seriousness, when Legolas exhausts in that video, his attached card stays straight. Is that a rule of the game, that attachments exhaust independantly of the character that they are attached to? I don't know if it makes a difference one way o-r the other, but it might.

Yes, attachments will exhaust separately. I believe one of the previews had an attachment card on show which said 'exhaust this card to do something good', eh, Steward of Gondor?

Now that you mention it, I do see that. "Exhaust Self Preservation to heal 2 points of damage from attached character." Good thing I still have time to master the subtlties of this game before release.

IIRC, in the AgoT LCG you can attach duplicates of a unique character card to the character to provide him with 'extra hit points' or something.

In AGoT if You have unique character with another copy of him/her under when you are force to kill a character from any reson you can drop copy to save him/her from being killed.

However, since Heroes are not part of your deck in LotR, there is no way you should have two of them

Right, it was probably just an error during filming.

The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game fans,

Thank you for your enthusiastic responses to our recent tutorial video!

Our inclusion of a Gimli card attached to another Gimli card was indeed an error, and we are working to correct it. After that, the corrected video will be uploaded.

Thanks again,
