Looks amazing! Though I do have one question:

The description states...
Five new playable cultures...
...but the list only contains 4 new playable cultures that I can see, being:
1. Dwarves of the Blue Mountains
2. Elves of Lorien
3. Men of Bree
4. Men of Minas Tirith

All other cultures mentioned have previously been released in the supplements Erebor, Rivendell, Horse-lords of Rohan and Heart of the Wild. Is this a typo or is there another culture that was missed?

Thanks!

You missed the Wayward Elves, I think.
