CG, you said that transfering EA was a lot to pay for its ability, now I completely disagree with this. At the MOST it will cost two to play on a non unique companion, then another two (during a different shadow phase mind you) to transfer it to say, elrond. I’d say four twilight is a pretty fair cost for invincible protection against all archery with no posession removal, which is all archery except for evil men archery at this time.

By the way, I do think it is funny that all you think I play with is my Troll Swarm deck, but hey, that’s what you get when your username is Porter Troll! Very Happy But in all seriousness, yes, I actually have three archery decks, one that uses evil men archery, one that uses Raider archery (my personal favorite) and one that uses Isengard archery.

Edit: Laughing I just realized, CG and I have been arguing on every thread for almost three days now. Laughing

What I meant was transferring all possessions off of a unique companion, because that companion can’t bear possessions. And if you don’t play any possessions on him/her to start with, he/she is basically worthless, since most elves clock in at about 7 or 6 strength.

Heh, well, if I had a troll swarm deck, I don’t think I’d play anything else. Laughing

Wow, you’re right! I really do get into these things, don’t I?

On a completely different topic besides EA, why is Destroyers and Usurpers getting X-ed, while cards like Frenzy of Arrows are errata-ed?

We’re all entitled to our opinions but in the end, the only thing that really matters is what D has to say on the matter. No amount of squabbling or complaining by any of us can change Deciphers call on what will or will not be placed on the X or R lists.

To CG for aiding me in fueling my contentious nature! Cheers

Well, I’m glad we’re so heated on all this. I wasn’t quite expecting such a massive arguments in response. Shocked

Are there any more votes on this?

I think it’s definitely balanced in Standard format since Men archery can kill it, but in Expanded something’s gotta be done.

I wholly agree, Raider, Moria, and Isengard archery have effectually no way to combat this cards ability to skip the archery phase. It must be X’ed in Expanded and then everything will be fair. I don’t even play expanded, so as long as it’s X’ed in standard it’s all good for me! Very Happy

Yes! I completely agree. A simple X-ing in Expanded format makes it perfect (cards aren’t X-ed in Open, and Movie Block only has cards from sets 1-10).

What about a change such as this:

Change the last line to:

"While a unique companion bears this possession, both the fellowship and minion archery totals are -1."

Just a -1 for one card. In order to turn it into a major effect, you’d have to have out multiple copies.

Or maybe that wouldn’t work, but I thought I’d throw it out there anyway.
