"When the attached realm is attacked, search the discard pile for 3 undead allies to aid in the battle. These allies cannot be forced to switch sides. At the end of battle, places these allies under the holding to be used again. The player may use the same allies or replace them in the next battle."

By Tim Barth

Caravan Guards - AD&D Holding +10

"Every time another player plays Caravan, this player is automatically hired to protect that card. He must use every card possible to keep the Caravan from being canceled. If the Caravan is succesful, this player may take one spoils and unraze one realm after the Caravan turn."

By Shane 'Bluntaxe' Reeves
