Movie block sites to standard sites total conversion
Because of the premature dead of LOTR tcg, there are too few sites in this game. I am going to convert all old movie block sites to standard format.
Basically need some balancing and grammar help with these card. There are some cards that are not in balance with others. So any feedback can be usefull! Those new sites are standard and LOTR MAP system compatible.

Full card list v. 0.9.4 can be found from: http://koti.24.fi/farian/lotr/linkit.htm

I put some problem cards for comments. One in each separate message.
The format is:
Subject: Card name
- Old card text
- New card text
- problems with the card
- possible solutions
Reply directly to post considerin the card you are going to comment.
If you want to say something about some other card that has not been discussed on, use the same format as above! |

Riddle 9
When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.
Who am I? |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

It would be a great help! There is a lot of text that can be used with very little rewriting.
I have been looking trough my old collection for finding all those old site cards. So the proses is running...
I think that first edition of first conversion are out during this week |

Problem:
The card is too powerful. (Or is it?) It provides burden removal to elves, that was removed in Standard format.
Solution:
I put region restriction to the card. Is it enough or should the whole text to be rewriten, for another effect. Healing? Card draving? Deck manipulation? (both are more suitable for elves in standard environment)
Variation B:
House of Elrond

Problem:
The card is too powerful. Compare to Courtyard Paparet 13U188, that was banned. In map system this is not so bad, but in standard format it can be really bad.
Solution:
There is region restriction in card. Is it enough? Or should the whole card text be rewriten?

Problem:
The old version was too powerful
Solution:
I redused the ability to play cards from discard by changing the game text. Is it ok now? or should the spot number be 2 minions (so max 5 minion with the card text, now you can get 6 (3 from hand and 3 from discard pile) |
