Thread: The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game:: Rules:: Engagement rules

by Horrid Beast

The errata states: "(1.11) Limitations on Attacks
When a player is the active attacker during the combat phase, the game rules grant him the option to declare 1 attack against each enemy with which he is engaged. If, through card effects such as ranged, a player is able to declare attacks against enemies with which he is not engaged, he is still only permitted a single attack against each of these enemies.
Characters are not limited as to how many times they can participate in attacks against the same enemy, provided each attack can be legally declared, and the character is ready and eligible to be declared as an attacker."

So am I able to attack a single enemy if say for instance I have three enemies engaged with me. Hence I can ignore the shields of the other characters for this battle?

Also, am I allowed to attack first if I choose to engage an enemy (my threat is lower than theirs).

Thanks in advance
