1.
The Windlord found me.
If played at an untapped Isengard, you must deal with the orc strikes
instead of the Wolves, or must you do both?
If someone has played incite denizens as an "on-guard" card at Isengard
does it modify the orc strikes from Windlord?

2.
Despair of the heart
Adrazar has a few minor items and a Despair played on him. An Assasin then
descends upon the company, wounding Ghan-buri-ghan. Does Adrazar make a
corruption check before or after Ghan-buri-ghan's body check?
Suddenly a slayer then leaps from a nearby rooftop and wounds Adrazar, does
he make his corruption check before or after the body check (answer should
be the same as the last question, but just in case . . .)

3.
At hunt dragon manifestations
do the manifestations only "attack" companies using region movement? I
would hope not since it seems a bit absurd, but it would be consistant with
a past ruling I received from this newsgroup in the past regarding a Cave
worm not being able to be played if a company was using starter movement to
travers the regions where the worm would normally be playable.

Thanks

Using starter movement, I believe that the regions of the sites
of origin and destination are considered to be moved through
for the purposes of keying hazard creatures, ahunt
manifistations, and the like, so if one of the sites is
actually in a region listed on the ahunt card, then the dragon
attacks a company with starter movement, otherwise it does not.

You must face both.

No, it is just an attack, not an auto-attack.

Before the body check.

They will attack any company moving in those regions. However, a company
using starter movement is only considered to move through the regions
of the site of origin and the new site.
