•Lurtz, Battle-hardened [Uruk-Hai]
Minion • Uruk-Hai
Strength: 13
Vitality: 3
Site: 5
Archer. Damage +1. Lurker.
Each time an [Uruk-Hai] wins a skirmish, you may shuffle that minion in your draw deck to draw a card.
"Whom do you serve?"
nice I guess.
•The Fighting Uruk-Hai [Uruk-Hai]
Condition • Support Area
Each wounded minion skirmishing a wounded companion is damage +1.
At the start of the assignment phase, you may exert an Uruk-Hai to assign that minion to an unbound companion. That companion may exert to prevent that.
"Now... perfected."
ok the fact you can splash it in any deck is too good. give it some culture enforcement |

Each of the new cultures Orc, Evil Men and Uruk-Hai have a card in this set that does something for every minion, with an added bonus for the culture itself. Is it really too powerful? |

I don’t think so, no, since the main ability can only be used once per assignment phase. |

but the first ability is pretty nice. I honestly think it is. |

What if I changed the abilities around? Have the damage +1 one only be gained by Uruk-Hai, and have the assignment for everyone. Or would that be too powerful as well? |

Changed! Thanks for the comments, guys!
Here are the two cards:
•The Nine Rings of Men
Artifact • Support Area
Each unbound companion skirmishing a minion bearing a ring is strength -1 and resistance -1.
Shadow or Regroup: Exert a Nazgul and remove 3 [Nazgul] cards in your discard pile from the game (or discard a ring) to add (or if in the Regroup phase).
"And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of men, who, above all else, desire power."
•Witch-King, Dark Lord
Minion • Nazgul
Strength: 14
Vitality: 4
Site: 3
Fierce.
To play, spot a card.
Each character is strength +1.
While you can spot 3 threats, each minion is strength +1.
While you can spot 3 burdens, each companion is strength -1.
"Great kings of men." |

Should be ’Rings’. Regroup should be bolded! The regroup ability is too complicated and not good enough. If it was a shadow ability, that would be rocking! The condition should cost or and the ability should either get rid of the ’exert a Nazgul’ bit, or put it in brackets so it’s clearer.

His first sentence makes little difference, though it makes sense stylistically. I’d make the other two trigger off higher numbers, say 4, otherwise I think it’s too easy. Plus, this is an unbelievable splash. Maybe it should say ’to play spot a card’.
Nice ideas.

I agree with Thranduil’s review. Go with that, and all will be well. |
