An unusual weather event, Cruel Caradhras forces the Free Peoples player to either exert the Ring-Bearer or add a burden during the maneuver phase. At the cost of [2] twilight and exerting an [Isengard] minion, Cruel Caradhras is a bit cost restrictive though it can lead to a quicker corruption when combined with Worry (particularly in a sealed format), and can be helped by having some copies of Saruman's Ambition on the board. It can also help to trigger burden-dependant cards like Orthanc Berserker, Shotgun Enquea or Ulaire Toldea Messenger of Morgul, or others like I'd Make You Squeak or the mighty regroup skill of Isengard Warrior if the Free Peoples player chooses to exert the Ring-bearer instead. | An unusual weather event, Cruel Caradhras forces the Free Peoples player to either exert the Ring-Bearer or add a burden during the maneuver phase.
