Strategy[edit]
While sharing the key functionality of Hides (4R19) , Bound By Rage enables the Shadow player to block wounds to Dunland men at a better twilight-per-wound rate, blocking 3 wounds for 3 twilight while one copy of Hides is capable of blocking at most 2 wounds with the same amount. Since it may be played using excess twilight at an earlier site, the Shadow player is able to use all twilight to play minions later in the game without worrying as much about running out of protection from Hides.
Because it is a condition rather than a possession, Bound By Rage is substantially more vulnerable to being discarded by the free peoples and costs up to 5 twilight when facing Legolas, Dauntless Hunter (4R73) . Additionally, if you cannot spot 2 Dunland men (Saruman, Rabble-rouser (4R33) is a Wizard and will not count towards this number), Bound By Rage comes into play with no tokens while Hides may be played at any time without loss of functionality. Bound By Rage is also unique, while Hides can see up to four copies at once and block 3 wounds for 3 twilight (the cost of each copy of Hides) with another copy remaining. Though Bound By Rage is a Common and more readily available to players, its pitfalls along with Hides' lower initial cost and added card drawing mean that it is rarely seen in constructed Dunland decks.
