The twilight cost of the first minion played at this site is -3.
Maybe -3 is a bit much. -2 might be better.

There’s a crucial ’a’ missing in the second ability between ’to’ and ’skirmish’. I’m a bit worried about the auto-death caused by this guy’s first ability and would prefer a limit.

Good combo with your Morgoth. I somewhat agree with Thran...I’d do something like this:
The twilight cost of the first minion played at this site is -2 (or -3 if that minion’s printed cost is or more).

I’d limit the first ability to once per skirmish and change it to a response action. I might change the second ability to discarding a single card, but only while you have initiative. Up to you.
Oh, and it should probably cost . |

Deathcall
Event * Maneuver
Exert 2 minions to exert each companion. The Free Peoples player may place an exhausted companion in the dead pile to prevent this.
On either hand the cliffs stood as embattled walls, and upon them sat carrion fowl crying with fell voices.
Spell of Sleeping
Event * Maneuver
Spell.
Spot 2 Elves (or Luthien) to prevent a minion from being assigned to skirmish until the regroup phase. The Free Peoples player must choose to move on again this turn (if the move limit allows).
Lifting up her hand she commanded him to sleep, saying: ’O woe-begotten spirit, fall now into dark oblivion, and forget for a while the dreadful doom of life.’ And Carcharoth was felled, as though lightning had smitten him.
Any shadow that makes you double-move (or decreases the move limit) won’t like this card. And... well, if you were planning on moving anyways...
Divine Might
Event * Skirmish
Spot a Wizard or a Spirit companion to make an Elf strength +3 and damage +1.
But suddenly some power, descended from of old from divine race, possessed Lúthien, and casting back her foul raiment she stood forth, small before the might of Carcharoth, but radiant and terrible.
*Throne of Angbad
Artifact * Support Area
Each time a companion is killed in a skirmish involving a minion, after all threat wounds have been placed, add a threat.
While you can spot a minion and 4 or more threats, each unbound companion is resistance -2.
They came to the seat of Morgoth in his nethermost hall that was upheld by horror, lit by fire, and filled with weapons of death and torment.
*Morgoth’s Gaze
Condition * Support Area
At the start of the Maneuver phase, you may exert Morgoth (or remove 2 threats) to reveal the Free Peoples player’s hand. Discard a Spell revealed.
Lúthien was stripped of her disguise by the will of Morgoth, and he bent his gaze upon her.
The Radiance of Heaven
Event * Maneuver
Spell.
Exert a Elf (or spot Luthien) and spot the Silmarils to wound a minion twice (or discard a minion).
The Silmarils in the crown on Morgoth’s head blazed forth suddenly with a radiance of white flame; and the burden of that crown and of the jewels bowed down his head, as though the world were set upon it, laden with a weight of care, of fear, and of desire, that even the will of Morgoth could not support.
Thrown Down Like Thunder
Event * Skirmish
Spell.
Cancel a skirmish involving an Elf. Each minion in that skirmish loses all keywords and game text and then gains fierce until the regroup phase.
Suddenly he fell, as a hill sliding in avalanche, and hurled like thunder from his throne lay prone upon the floors of hell. The iron crown rolled echoing from his head. All things were still. |

Hmmm seems the get out clause is even nastier than the effect. Discard maybe not dead pile.

Phrase "is killed" not dies. Make it 4 or more threats. Needs cultural enforcement on the second part.

Too good. If ur going to not even exert to cancel it and not require anything else you need to make the minion fierce or something not additionally make the minion worse.

I argue with Lem0n on radiance of heaven. You need a elf, AND The simirills to wound a minion twice. getting the simarils out could be ...difficult. |

Rainsong
Condition * Support Area
Spell.
When you play this condition, add an token here.
Each time a token here is reinforced, you may take a spell from your discard pile into hand.
Then Lúthien catching up her winged robe sprang into the air, and her voice came dropping down like rain into pools, profound and dark.
Thieving the Silmarils
Event * Fellowship
Exert Beren twice to play X artifacts from your discard pile. Then, choose a shadow player who must discard X shadow cards.
Then he drew forth the knife Angrist; and from the iron claws that held it he cut a Silmaril.
Consuming Fire
Event * Skirmish
Spot an artifact to make a man strength +2; or discard an artifact to cancel a skirmish involving a man.
’Get you gone, and fly!’ cried Beren; ’for here is a fire that shall consume you, and all evil things.’ And he thrust the Silmaril before the eyes of the wolf.
Waking Shadow
Event * Response
If the Free Peoples player plays an event, spot a card to cancel that event. Then, play a minion from your discard pile; its twilight cost is -X, where X is the twilight cost of the canceled event. If that minion was played during the skirmish phase, it is fierce until the regroup phase.
The hosts of Morgoth were awakened. |

Dunno if gondor should cancel skirmishes. Its a good card but its not the theme of gondor. They fight not run off.
Waking Shadow
Event * Response
If the Free Peoples player plays an event, cancel that event. Then, play a minion from your discard pile; its twilight cost is -X, where X is the twilight cost of the cancelled event. If that minion was played during the skirmish phase, it is fierce until the regroup phase.

Wow. Erm. Sweet! Is it meant to have NO cultural enforcement?
