Whether or not you heed the call of the Hero Expansion, you can still look forward to a high seas adventure in the Dream-chaser Campaign Expansion! EDIT - I got an official answer from Tyler Parrott on this (from the January 25th livestream playthhrough of an Angmar quest on their YouTube channel, about 1 hour in). Edited the post as a future resource. Some orcs and undead could be seen as disturbing/scary, and a few cards depict dead or dying humanoids, though no extensive violence is shown. If you’re cool with the Lord of the Rings movies, then you’ll be cool with this (slightly tamer) art. Character Expansion

In The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game, you and your friends take on the roles of heroes attempting to complete dangerous quests. Instead of directly retelling the classic stories that have previously been narrated, this game provides you with a variety of elements—characters, settings, enemies, events, items, artifacts, scenarios—that allow you to embark upon new adventures and share new experiences with these beloved characters during this ominous period of Middle-earth's history. What roads would any dare to tread, what safety would there be in quiet lands, or in the homes of simple men at night, if the Dúnedain were asleep, or were all gone into the grave?” – Aragorn, The Fellowship of the Ring The Angmar Awakened Hero Expansion includes 8 heroes for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game, as well as all of the player cards and customization options featured in The Lost Realm and the original Angmar Awakened cycle. Use iconic characters like Aragorn and Arwen to quest through Middle-earth and thwart dangerous foes. Rise to the occasion by using valor cards and partake in new adventures pursuing thrilling side quests. In addition to a gripping story, the Campaign Expansion also includes some gameplay mechanics that help the scenarios stand apart from those of the Revised Core Set. For example, in several scenarios you may find yourselves traveling with the Dúnedain allies Iârion Angmar Awakened CE, 1) or Amarthiúl Angmar Awakened CE, 2). While handy to have around, you must also keep them healthy, because if either of them is defeated, you lose the game!The Dread Realm: Reanimation of player cards that function as enemies with set stats engaged with the player. An enemy invincible as long as there are sorcery treachery cards in play and each time you attempt to damage him one of these cards are removed from the game.

Campaign expansions provide new scenarios while transporting players to different areas of Middle-earth and introducing more of the unique encounters found therein. Even if you have no interest in the heroes, allies, or other player cards of the Hero Expansion, you can still look forward to a thrilling campaign in the Angmar Awakened Campaign Expansion! The Battle of Carn Dum: 2 sided enemy, Thaurdir, lots of shadow cards brought out onto enemies in the staging area that on certain enemies increase the amount of threat they have. First, the heroes. The new heroes are: Dori and Aragorn (tactics), Arwen and Merry (Spirit), Halbarad and Amarthiul (leadership), and Erestor and Rossiel (lore). The more interesting cards in this expansion largely focus on mechanics specific to the campaign (bonuses for lots of engaged enemies, side quests players can add which often grant boons when completed etc.). The Angmar Awakened campaign is quite difficult, but new players might miss that it's possible to carry over boons from the Mirkwood Paths campaign into your "next" campaign. I'm convinced the designers intended for players to use this to make the Angmar Awakened campaign easier and more approachable.Following are some Spoilers for the end of the Campaigns from the core set and Dark of Mirkwood expansion, together called the "Mirkwood Paths" campaign) Two classic cycles for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game are being reimagined in a new set of expansions. The sphere of Spirit emphasizes the strength of a hero’s will. Determination, courage, loyalty, and heart are all aspects of this sphere, which also reaches into the more supernatural aspects of Middle-earth. The sphere of Tactics emphasizes a hero’s martial prowess, particularly as it relates to combat and overcoming other tactical challenges that might confront the party during a quest.

Each campaign is its own self-contained experience. The boons, burdens, and other modifications earned in a campaign do not carry over into other games or campaigns, unless explicitly stated by a card ability (such as the Resolution effect on the Campaign Card for Escape from Dol Guldur)."

Mendor - a 1/1/1 character with ranged who lets every player draw a card after completing a quest card, including side quests! Plus he readies after completing a quest. There are also Boon cards and Burden cards, boons are beneficial cards that players can earn by completing certain tasks or outcomes as described by the campaign cards, and the Burden cards are detrimental cards that players can earn through the quests. In the Angmar Awakened Campaign Expansion, players will find a storyline built from the original The Lost Realm and Angmar Awakened cycles. In the expansion, players will be initially aiding the Dúnedain in hunting some roaming orcs, before things start to escalate further beyond anyone expected. Eventually, players will be going up against entire war parties of orcs and wraiths, until experiencing a final showdown in the capital of Angmar. Whilst the side quest cards in the Hero Expansion offer nice optional incentives for players, the side quest cards in the Campaign Expansion will result in something bad if they’re not dealt with – drastically changing the motivation behind completing them.
