I would have thought *and have played it this way myself* that the spill damage all gets assigned to one character until it's dead. If there's still spill damage after the second character then that is then ALL assigned to a third and so on. I can see no reason why you'd suddenly get to spill the damage as you please over all your heroes and allies.
yea that is how I do it as well... So attack, ALL dmg spill gose to next toon, remainign damage spill gose to next toon etc untill the force of the attack is finished.
I agree with that too.I think this the right way to play it.
Wizard is never late...
Did anyone ever get an official response to this?
Its worded quite badly and although I think the intention is to damage spill, if taken literally you have to damage a character for each point of excess damage from the attack - what isn't clear is exactly what "damage a character" means - but a good assumption is the act of applying a single damage token to that character (although it could mean applying the full 6 attack against thrm but that would be mental hard!).
If its assumed "to damage" is to apply a single damage token to a character, then within the wording of the card there is no requirement to apply damage caused by excess damage to a single character until they die then move onto another etc, by the wording of the card each point of damage could be applied to a different character, having said all of that, the intention is probably to damage spill onto a single character until dead and repeat!
The multi defender card (stand together?) was clarified to work that way and this situation seems similar?
Anyway, was there an official response?

I think it's quite easy to see it as : 7 points of damage…1 defense + 2 hp and arwen dies, then the remaining 4 hit points…2 to a descendant of thorondor and other two on elrohir (because maybe you've run out of allies)…also from a thematic point of view the troll does not shot a rain of arrows which hits every character in play…it smashes opponents with a giant mace…so if the first character he meets is tough enough to absorb all of it he does…if he's not than the troll gets to damage another character and so on….unil all his strenght is out…

Yep. Here's booored's query and the accompanying response (culled from the cardgamedb thread):
Q: - Dose the new Cave-Troll card that spills dmg from one card to the next only do this once? Or dose the dmg spill over to a new character until the dmg runs out?
So, can this effect spill over so the Cave-Troll dmg hits 3 cards for example?
A: - The "overflow" damage is assigned point by point. If it kills off a character, there is still overflow from the attack that needs to be assigned.
Real men play with one Core Set.

Cheers!
So it's still not 100% clear that you have to assign over flow to a single character rather than the option of spreading it over multiple…in fact from the answer you could say spreading it is more likely a valid option than before - ill go check out the full thread, ta.

Found it - each point is assigned individually so can be spread out if so desired
