Some non-public role specific notes:
Bilbo started 2 squares away rom hiome and was given the opton to go back home to pick up Sting and some other goodides, which he did.
The Trolls would learn the names of the other trolls upon enter Troll Hills, which was a pre-game hint for them. VR never made it, she didn't look trolly enough to Zurvan
The
necromancer learned he had an ally in Angmar. That would have provided him with an upgrade to his magic attack and attack all in the location. I actually randed bloo a bit too far from Angmar, so he never even tried.
Kili an
Tauriel would learn their lover's identify upon searching Withered Heath. Apoc never got there, he lost two moves going into the wrong direction and then ran into bloo.
Bard the Bowman had to pick up his Crossbow in Bree. He never made it to there.
Gandalf was given a hint that somewhere in the misty mountains he could find Glamdring. That was overkill, he only used up two of his very efficient pinecones.
