The Book of Sauron

The Book of Sauron
Bangerang Tolkien Custom


The figure used for this unit is Sauron from Heroclix: Lord of the Rings Starter Set.

Character Bio:
Sauron , the eponymous Lord of the Rings, was the Dark Lord Morgoth's most powerful lieutenant during the First Age, and then as the Dark Lord of Mordor the creator of the One Ring, whom the Fellowship of the Ring sought to defeat by destroying the One Ring.


LORD OF THE RING
At the start of the game place The One Ring Glyph on Sauron’s Army Card. When Sauron is destroyed place The One Ring on the space that was occupied by Sauron.


SAURON’S COMMAND
When revealing an Order Marker on Sauron, before taking a turn with Sauron, you may take a turn with any 2 Ring Wraiths you control.

SWEEPING MACE SPECIAL ATTACK
Range 1. Attack 5.
Choose a figure to attack. Any figures adjacent to both Sauron and the chosen figure are also affected by Sweeping Mace Special Attack. Roll attack dice once for all affected figures. Each figure rolls defense dice separately.

TERRIFYING PRESENCE
All opponent’s figures within 3 clear sight spaces of Sauron roll one less defense die against normal attacks. All opponent’s figures adjacent to Sauron roll one less attack die when attacking with a normal attack.


-Rulings and Clarifications-
EVENT HEROES:
This rule, although optional, should always be used when playing with an Event Hero. The main thing to remember about Event Heroes is that because they are a different type of hero, they are not susceptible to powers that specify Unique or Common Heroes.

EVENT HERO SPECIAL RULE:
When selecting cards to put in your Army, you cannot select two of the same Event Army Card. Event Heroes are never destroyed without first taking enough wounds to be destroyed. If a terrain rule or a special power on any Army Card, Glyph, or Destructible Object would automatically destroy an Event Hero, that terrain rule or special power instead inflicts 4 wounds on that Event Hero. Players may never take temporary or permanent control of an opponent's Event Hero.

EVENT HERO CLARIFICATION
Event Heroes may not pick up Equipment Glyphs. Equipment Glyphs may only be equipped by Unique Heroes.
