Gondor Companions so Far.

•Aragorn, Leader of Middle Earth
Companion•Man
Strength: 7
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 8
Captain 2. Aragorn is strength + 1 for each race you can spot in the fellowship.
Skirmish:If Aragorn wins a skirmish, make him captain -X to make a companion strength +X until the regroup phase.
00R59

I really think you could make this guy base strength 8. I like the idea.

•Elendil, Leader of Men and Elves
Companion•Man
Strength: 9
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 6
Captain 2. Isildur is twilight cost -3.
While you can spot Isildur, Elendil is strength +2.
Skirmish: Exert Elendil to make each Elf and other man strength +1 until the regroup phase.
00R60

I’m not sure I like all the Isildur text, but I’ll let it pass. His skirmish ability is way too overpowered. At the most make it on exertion to make one Elf or Man strength +2 until the regroup phase.

•Isildur, Leader of Gondor
Companion•Man
Strength: 7
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 3
Captain 0. Elendil is twilight cost -3.
While you can spot Elendil, Isildur is strength +2.
Skirmish: Exert Isildur to have him replace Elendil in a skirmish.
00R61

Not sure I like how the whole card depends on Elendil. Also, what is the point of having Captain 0?

•King of the Dead, Leader of Wraiths
Companion•Wraith
Strength: 7
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 5
Captain 1. Enduring. To play, add two threats.
While you can spot Aragorn, King of the Dead is strength +2.
Fellowship: Add a threat to play a Wraith or a Wraith follower from your draw deck.
00R62

I’m noticing you have all these guys focusing on each other being out. That’s a lot of twilight for companions. I do like this dude though, although his fellowship action should cause an exertion.

Note: Later on, there will be followers with the keyword wraith on them

Next up, the stewards.

Aragorn

I really think you could make this guy base strength 8. I like the idea.

Well...a frodo RB gives him an automatic strength 9. (Spotting himself and the RB). That’s why I did it that way. And then with a dwarf, wraith, wizard, ent, elf, and even a tree (Huorn), he’s base strength 15, pretty tough. I think I’ll keep it there.

Elendil

I’m not sure I like all the Isildur text, but I’ll let it pass. His skirmish ability is way too overpowered. At the most make it on exertion to make one Elf or Man strength +2 until the regroup phase.

Hm...I’ll have to think about that, I like a collective benefit, but it may be overpowered. Maybe exert him twice?

Isildur

Not sure I like how the whole card depends on Elendil. Also, what is the point of having Captain 0?

Well...That’s the whole point! An Isilidur/Elendil Starting fellowship! And the Captain 0 is for spotting a captain, and the captain ability can be manipulated.

King of the Dead

I’m noticing you have all these guys focusing on each other being out. That’s a lot of twilight for companions. I do like this dude though, although his fellowship action should cause an exertion.

Hm...Maybe I outta have him twilight cost - 1 or 2 if you spot Aragorn. That way, Aragorn, Strider/KotD Starting Fellowship. Oh, and wraiths will pump the threat count very high, really fast. So that insures that his ability won’t be overused, but maybe I’ll add two threats, eh?

Very interesting, and I like it! Although his ability should be a Response action. Do you realize that it can kick in after his Captain kicks in?

00R63
Very nice. I like the trio thing. I think the Skirmish ability should be limited to once per phase, though. That could get very out of hand...
