	Description Edit \| History

Description from the publisher:

After scouring the Emyn Muil for signs of Gollum, the heroes of Middle-earth follow his trail south. Now Gollum takes desperate risks to elude the heroes in a realm of treacherous fens and mires.

The Dead Marshes is the fifth and penultimate Adventure Pack in the Shadows of Mirkwood cycle for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game. The hunt for Gollum draws to a close – unless he finds his way to escape once and for all.

The Dead Marshes introduces sixty new cards, including a Quest featuring the new, scenario-specific Escape mechanism that allows players to experience how slippery Gollum can be! Will your heroes succeed in their long hunt? Or will they lose sight of their quarry while being hounded by monsters under the shadow of Mordor?
