PC Errata/Yuletide 2025

2025 Yuletide Errata + V3 Errata

With Yuletide, as always, the PC introduced the largest batch of changes for the year for the purposes of shaking up the metagame alongside the first public release of the set The Pelennor Fields (V3). The major cornerstone of this set was to introduce new mechanics, including Multi-dot Uniqueness and Hinder, both of which were developed with an eye on their use with errata, but there were plenty of other buffs and balance changes besides these.

Hinder, as a temporary disable, is designed to be a perfect drop-in replacement for mass discard, and it is this application which makes up a large portion of this year's Yuletide Errata. Cards such as Sleep, Caradhras (1C84) and Saruman's Power (1U136) , which have been powerhouses since their introduction all the way back in set 1, were altered to instead used to temporarily Hinder cards. Other long-standing problematic cards such as Galadriel, Lady Redeemed (10R11) , Gríma, Wormtongue (4R154) , and Secret Sentinels (2R20) were also altered to utilize Hinder, replacing all earlier less elegant efforts to restrict their use.

Besides the Hinder retrofit, the Dwarven culture was given a boost in a series of buffs to its Fellowship Block array of cards, with the aim of improving that culture's ability to rival the Elven and Gandalf cultures in both PC-Fellowship and PC-Movie.

Several other miscellaneous buffs and balance changes were also included.
