Those double-negatives hurt my brain, and I suspect I’m not the only one. Might be clearer to say something like "While you can spot a minion, and each minion is assigned to a skirmish, this character is strength +2."

Very interesting. He could be huge, or he could be small, depending on how the game progresses. I think I’d limit them to +3 and -3, though.

You need to either put a semicolor after "draw deck" or make the sentence end there and start a new one with "Make a Dwarf...". Good otherwise, though.

You need to specify who can bear it and then say "Bearer is damage +1. I think I’d let any Dwarf bear it (which seems to be your intent) and only give the damage bonus if bearer is Gimli, but that’s me.

I think it needs to cost . See Awkward Moment and the very similiar Khazad Ai-menu. |

Would it work just to say "While each minion is assigned to a skirmish, this character is strength +2"?

Yeah, I THINK so. The only potential issue I see is if there are no minions in play...but I don’t think that would mess anything up.
So, yes. That works. I think.  |

If there are no minions, the strength bonus would be moot anyway, not?
Cool cards, anyway, and I agree with the changes Dain suggested. |

Nice card! I like the interesting balance, especially because Shadow tokens seem to be coming back. He’d become a massive tank, too...

Nice job, although Dwarves aren’t known for Telepathy...and they generally have low twilight costs. So maybe I’d use this. Although with Gandalf, Manager of Wizards, of course I’d use it!

Owch! This is a plenty powerful card, I think you can safely drop the damage bonus.

I would change ’equals’ to ’is’, just because that’s the usual wording. Good stuff.

That fellowship ability could be very nice for setting up your Shadow side... I would limit it to a card.
