Am I missing something? This has no restriction against travelling there, so I can't think of any reason why I would trigger the action. Also, playing solo Assault on Osgiliath seems remarkably easy if you choose this as your starting location. As long as you can defend attacks on turn 1 and 2, quest for about 7 on turn 2, and don't draw another osgiliath location, you win. Is it really as easy as it seems? After a couple of times playing this quest, I have come to the conclusion that either I'm playing something massively wrong, or this quest is just completely broken in solo.
Reading through the quest card, I have to agree. It is definitely a LOT easier in Solo due to the very reduced chance of getting another Osgiliath location in play before claiming the West Gate.
