While you can spot Aragorn and Eomer, each is damage +1.
While you can spot Faramir and Eowyn, each is strength +1.
While you can spot Denethor and Theoden, each is resistance +2.
’That road I will take, nonetheless,’ said Aragorn. ’But I say to you, Éomer, that in battle we may yet meet again, though all the hosts of Mordor should stand between.’
No complaints at all! Nice one!

Tale.
Each time you play a tale, you may add  to add a token here.
Skirmish: Remove a token from here to make a Man strength +1.
Skirmish: Remove 2 tokens from here to wound an Orc or  minion skirmishing a companion (except the Ring-bearer).
Sauron has not forgotten Isildur and the sword of Elendil. Now in the very hour of his great designs the heir of Isildur and the Sword are revealed; for I showed the blade re-forged to him. He is not so mighty yet that he is above fear.
I think there are few enough (useful) tales to leave this card at and remove the adding (I’m suggesting this because I think it’s too wordy as it is). Good card, except that I think you should only be able to wound people skirmishing companions, and then you might not need the brackets.

’A’ like lem0n suggested, but ’Shadow’ and ’Man’ should both be capitalised, and I think this event could seriously do with a toil 1.

Can you remind me what an epic condition is? Also, not sure about this card as you’re going to have to add threats to the play the Wraith in the first place. How about it could remove a threat - then if you haven’t played enough Wraiths you have to start killing them! I like the idea (and Wraiths need all the help they can get), but I’m not sure it’s worth it.

I agree with lem0n, and I’d make the cost as it counts to the rule of 4.

Yeah, could easily be , or without discarding cards.

I don’t much like his lower strength or his first ability. Maybe something about preventing wounds to Wraiths would be better.

Thran and lem0n already covered the comments I would give, so moving on....

I actually like that it adds threats each turn, as that helps counter-balance the strong ability (since, as Thran said, Wraiths add plenty of threats themselves!). I think I might allow another option if you CAN’T add a threat, though, even if it’s just something simple like discarding a companion instead. IF you do that, I’d have the threat adding trigger at the END of the fellowship phase.

I think the regroup ability should change to simply "Discard a tale from hand or from play to...". While I think his strength is fine since it can get up to 9 easily enough, I’d raise his vitality back to the normal 4. |
