Ok, I assume, therefore, that no-one had any reservations with regards to the changes to this UEP during its voting period?

Given the voting period is now passed, it looks like this UEP has been accepted. :D

I'm obviously fine with the UEP, but the formulation is rather troublesome, basically you get into the whole memory of play issue, as there is no tracking devise on the card, how does it know you moved to the Darkhaven the turn before? And I'm assuming the "turn before" here, cause it's not mentioned in the proposal, which makes it just nonsense, as you have not moved an inch during the organization phase.

It would be so much simpler to just discard during End of Turn phase if moved to a Darkhaven from a non-Darkhaven. The only difference is it would alter two more words on the card.

Ok there might also be some repercussions for game play, discarding the RW followers during the turn they arrive, so they can't stick around to counter things your opponent might do, or store things. But as they're in a Darkhaven, those options are pretty limited (especially in non-dc games), and it was how it was intended apparently.

I have an opinion. First, I have not played in many years. I do not play online. I like the spirit of the change. How about having the text state to tap the event if you moved that fits the criterion, then the discarding takes affect during the next turn if the event is tapped?

Speaking of tap, get me a stout Barliman!

just my opinion.

That seems acceptable.

Which of the 2 proposals seems acceptable?

We could do the tap route, but it does mean changing a lot more on the card, which is less elegant. You must also mention it does not untap I suppose, etc.
Inverting it then seems better.

edit: ok new text:

Black Rider mode. Playable at a Darkhaven [ :h: ] during the organization phase on your Ringwraith’s own company. The company may move to a non-Darkhaven site. Invert this card if the company has moved from a non-Darkhaven site to a Darkhaven [ :h: ]. If inverted, discard this card and any other Ringwraith followers in the company during your organization phase. Cannot be duplicated on a given company.

Sorry for being unclear; I like the one you've just proposed.

I like the newest text.

"Moved" means successful moved to a new site? so discard when new site card replaces old? Just thinking critically.
