Type: Ally Sphere: Neutral Cost: 3 Willpower: 1 Attack: 0 Defense: 2 Hit Points: 3 Gondor. If each hero you control belongs to the same sphere of influence, you may assign damage from undefended enemy attacks to White Tower Watchman instead of a hero you control. The watchmen cried aloud, and all men in the City stood to arms. - The Return of the King Set: TDF Number: 41 Quantity: 3 Illustrator: Ilich Henriquez |

Does this work with abilities that give heroes additional spheres?
Like Elrond + Vilya or Aragorn + any of his artifacts or... just any song?
Yes because it doesn´t say "...have the same printed sphere symbol..." or something to that effect.
If Gandalf is my only hero, can I still use White Tower Watchman's ability?
Good question--I don't think so.
FFG has been pretty--ridiculously--clear that neutral is not a sphere. Now, you could argue that all of your Heroes not belonging to a Sphere means that they are all of the same Sphere but I don't think that's going to fly within FFG's current interpretation of Sphere division. That would be like saying that I only eat one type of cookie--pie.
You could play the Watchman if you gave Gandalf a Resource Icon, though--via a Song, for instance, or Narya.
Agreed. Neutral is not a sphere so would not activate their ability if you only have Gandalf and he doesn't have an attachment granting him an icon.
PS--this card has epic art. Love it.
This is the same guy that did the equally awesome Expecting Mischief and Wraith of Carn Dum.
