I’ve decided to do a small set* on the hobbit, it will focus mostly on companions and minions of the book.
i’m not sure how many cards this will be yet, but here are the races that will be included:
[dragon] which will be represtented by
*it really isn’t a set, since i will not be keeping to the card numbers, rarity, or even alfabetical order.

alright lets start with the dwarves. there will be two different copies of each dwarf companion.
•Dwalin, At Your Service
Companion • Dwarf
Strength: 5
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 5
Damage +1.
While Bilbo is the ring-bearer, Dwalin is strength +3.
While you can spot Thorin, Dwalin is Defender +1
•Dwalin, Son of Fundin
Companion • Dwarf
Strength: 5
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 5
Fellowship or maneuver: If you can spot Bilbo, you may exert Dwalin, and discard a card from hand to discard a condition. Dwalin is strength +1 for each shadow skirmish event played during skirmishes involving him.
Dwarven Cloak
Possession • Cloak
Strength: +1
Resistance: +1
Bearer must be a Dwarf.
Regroup: Discard this possession to heal bearer (and remove if at a mountain site.) |

Skirmish: Dwalin is strength +1 for each shadow skirmish event played during skirmishis involving him.
You needn’t have skirmish in bold here, since this is not an action. Good going!
Dwarven Cloak
Possession • Cloak
Resistance: +2
Bearer must be a Dwarf.
While bearer is at a mountain or battleground site, bearer is strength +1.
Regroup: discard this possession to heal bearer (and remove if at a mountain site.)
Maybe making the twilight cost 1 would balanve it even more, but i still love it! |

Yes, a good idea. After all, a ranger cloak gives a +1 vitality, a +1 recistance and a cool ability.
It would be equally good to have a dwarven cloak with a +1 recistance, a possible strength+1 and a really good ability. |

here are a couple more. balin this time.
•Balin, At Your Service
Companion • Dwarf
Strength: 6
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 5
Damage +1.
Bilbo takes no more than one wound during each skirmish phase.
While you can spot Thorin, Balin is is strength +2.
•Balin, The Lookout
Companion • Dwarf
Strength: 6
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 5

when you play Balin, you may play a possession on him from your draw deck.
Maneuver: Exert Balin to reveal a shadow player’s hand. you may discard 1 shadow card revealed. |

Very nice. Although maybe the first gametext should be lumped in with the "Spot Thorin".

Very nice...although the Maneuver ability has precious little enforcement. I mean, any shadow card? Although it is maneuver... |

Since he already is damage +1, i might suggest switching for:

I agree with corvus on this one.

how about, and draw a card for the second ability? don’t know why but it just sounds right to me. |
