So yes, the guard card is an "extra." If you are playing with two players and flip Signs of Gollum as your first card, you will immediately reveal and attach a guard. Then, you will reveal a second "normal" encounter card.
I'm a bit confused with this card as you have to complete a quest to claim the card. So if this is guarded a by an enemy character you would have to kill the character then wait to see if it is attached to a treachery card instead when it returns to the staging area so that it can resolve before you complete the quest. Otherwise if it is guarded by a travel-able location it will attach to that and you will not be able to take control of it until that location has been travelled to successfully.
As far as I am aware, Guarded means that it gets another encounter card when it is first revealed, but never gets additional encounter cards attached to it after the first one. So if you kill the enemy it's attached to, it stays unattached in the staging area. (Until some bastard treachery shuffles it back in.)
Ahh ok, this makes sense! Thanks guys!!
