Hello guys, I want to ask some questions for the rules of The Lord of the Rings SBG. 1) When Sauron loses his last wound and rolls a D6 can he use his Might if the result is 1? 2)When a warrior wears an Elven Cloak can he be targeted by arrows when i use the Volley Fire (not as the primary target)? 3)Can Gandalf use his Sorcerous Blast on an enemy warrior if Grima is behind of that warrior?If yes, will Grima suffer a Strength 3 hit? 4)If Gandalf uses his Sorcerous Blast to blast an enemy warrior into a battle between a Troll and an elf, the battle will be resolved with the elf on the ground and the Troll standing? |

I do not have all the answers here but for the first question: Judging by what the rulebook states, 'The One Ring' rule is Fate based and if you could use Might, Sauron would be pretty close to invincible. He has to roll a 2,3,4,5, and 6 on the off chance he rolls a 1 he dies, as it would be the only way to kill him. So to sum it up, no I do not believe Sauron may use Might to sustain himself if he rolls a one. |

1) sauron can use might to change the dice to 2 2) you can only target him if at least one model of your force can see him. And the elven cloak makes that no-one can see your model if it is partially hidden, and every enemy is at least 6 inch away. So if this all is true, then volley can't target this model 3) as far as I know, 2 times yes. 4) how I play it, the troll will not be knocked to the ground, but will get a strength 3 hit. |

If Sauron is down to his final wound, and the opponent strikes and lands multiple wounds on him, does Sauron do a Ring test only once for being killed, or does he have to Ring test for every other excessive wound landed? I would guess it's once only for being killed and excess wound strikes are discarded. If it worked like normal Fate, he would have to utilize a Fate point for each and every wound landed, right? |

Only once. You only roll for the ring when Sauron is removed. As he is on 1 wound, once one wound is suffered the ring activates as he is effectively removed. That is the downside to throwing lots of dice to wound at once. Do it warrior at a time and each time you score a wound he will have to take the test. Make sense? |

Thanks once again. Yet there shouldn't be a difference between a roll to wound one at a time and doing it all at the same time. It should be either each wound counts as a kill or the whole combat counts as one ordeal that kills Sauron only once. I hope that doesn't sound confusing. |

gandulf cannot use Sorcerer's Blast if there is a chance for a ally to be wounded by it. so that situation shoulden't come up in the frist place. |

Gandalf can blast into an evil warrior into a combat containing a friendly model because there is always a chance the evil warrior wont get blasted back far enough to hit the friendly model. The no shooting in combat rule only affects shooting (funnily enough), magic is a different kettle of fish. |

This is correct, magic and shooting are two different things, unless you can find in the rules where it says otherwise. |
