Realms of the Elf-lords Contest #1:
Name the Real Card
Below are ten different titles of cards from the new expansion for The
Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game, Realms of the Elf-lords. The only
trick is, we aren't going to give them to you that easily! For each correct
card title, there are two incorrect titles. Your challenge is to identify
the correct answers from the incorrect answers.
The Answers
Very difficult, that is how I would describe the first contest for Realms
of the Elf-lords. Many of the card titles that were incorrect were variations
of the correct titles of cards. Swap one word here, swap another word there
and you have a contest that even the designers who made the cards were not
able to get 100% on.
With that in mind, I give you the correct answers (highlighted in orange)::
