Say Orcs with Hatred (Dwarves) are attacking a company with a Dwarf, as well as a Mirkwood Elf.
Naturally, the Orcs will focus on the Dwarf (at least, the LM may split up the Orcs between the PCs, but replace Orcs that fall from the Dwarf fastest, or make sure to always have 3 Orcs against it).
Now, let's say the Elf uses his Elf-Lights, which states that all talking creatures are drawn to it (I think attribute level 6 or less), or must spend 1 point of Hate to ignore it.
Which takes precedence? The Orcs Hatred (Dwarves) or being drawn to the light? I would assume that, if the Orcs have only 1 Hate left (especially if they are Craven) they will go toward the light thus attacking the Elf (it is in their favor not to ignore it, and lose their last Hate, becoming Weary or running away). But if the Orcs have more than 1 Hate left, the LM can use their own discretion.
What if the Elf is already engaged by 3 Orcs? The other Orcs who can see the light (if at night this would be all of them) are still drawn toward it - they need to spend 1 Hate if they attack the Dwarf or another PC, right?
It would make sense that, in battle, the Orcs aren't just not going to attack even if they're drawn to attack an Elf they can't reach because the Elf is basically surrounded. However, it seems like the Orcs who can't reach the Elf this round are doomed to lose 1 Hate, or to not attack and try to go toward the Elf (which wouldn't quite make sense, since they are drawn out of hatred for the light I assume, rather than being hypnotized).
To complicate it further:
What if instead of a (Hated) Dwarf it is a Dunedain, using Royalty Revealed? What if both the Dunedain and Elf are Forward, and the Elf has his light? Seems like a nice catch 22 for them poor Orcs.
