|ReleaseNotes=Flaming Brand has no downsides to including--it is never dead weight, as it is at least a +1 strength to any Man of any culture, and potentially quite a bit more.  Its dead-simple ease of use makes it an auto-include, which dumpsters Nazgul in any format where Brand is legal. 
The bearer restriction has been reworked to Ranger, which allows Arwen but disallows Eomer.  A twilight cost has been added to make sure it's no longer zero-downside.  And then the ability has been adjusted to burn the brand to kill a nazgul for one turn--not provide an endless beatdown.

|ReleaseNotes=The first errata for Flaming Brand may have gone a bit far–it restricted its usage to only a single skirmish, and since most Nazgul are fierce, that meant losing half of your skirmishes even when utilizing it.
Instead of "throwing" the Brand, you now "light" it, getting bonus strength and damage so long as you hold it (so {{Card|Ulaire Cantea, Lieutenant of Dol Guldur}} can still ruin your day!), and then the Brand will "burn out" in the Regroup phase. Multiple Brands may be lit if the situation warrants, but only lit Brands will self-discard.
Overall, this feels like a better place for the Brand to be in.
