Type: Attachment Sphere: Lore Cost: 2 Mount. Attach to a Noldor or Silvan hero. Action: Exhaust Asfaloth to place 1 progress token on any location. (2 tokens instead if attached hero is Glorfindel.) Suddenly into view below came a white horse, gleaming in the shadows, running swiftly. In the dusk its headstall flickered and flashed as if it were studded with gems like living stars. - The Fellowship of the Ring Set: FoS Number: 110 Quantity: 3 Illustrator: Sandara Tang |

Working with the Northern Tracker (Core), or any of a half-dozen or so current similar cards really helps in places like Emyn Muil.
I feel this card way too powerfull, its like Steward of gondor making Glorfindel a must have, this card simply destroy the locations as flies.
You don't have to use Glorfindel to include it. It's still worth it on another hero.
Agree it's much more powerful on Glorfindel, but don't think it forces you to use him.
There is also plenty of quests with locations that put this card - and Northern Tracker - in check. Ones that have + quest points while in the staging area. Ones that are immune to player card effects or cannot have progress put on them while in the staging area, or even ones that remove a token every time you put any amount on there.
My current 2 player group doesn't use Glorfindel at all, much less Steward or Asfaloth. They are not auto includes.
slothgodfather interesting, which ones are your auto include?
To be fair, it is a powerful card combination (Glorfindel and Asfaloth) and if someone is already running him and one of the players has brought Lore, then I would agree that it is pretty much at least a 1x auto-include. Atm though, one of us plays Gandalf, Elrond and Galadriel and the other uses a mono-tactics deck.
