Hmm either lower his strength to 4 or his vitality to 1 or up his cost to 3. He could get beasty.

Nice, but whenever i see cards that says transfer to another bearer i always start thinking of fruit loops like the evil men thing. As long as there isnt abuse here its sound.

DI must have lost this thread somewhere. Oh well.
I think I’ll push on.
Remember my cycle of Orkish hosts? Well, here’s another:
• Host of Dol Guldur
Minion • Orc
Str: 15
Vit: 3
Sit: 4
When you play this minion, you may spot an or minion to stack a random site from the Free Peoples player’s adventure deck here.
Skirmish: If this minion is skirmishing, discard a site stacked on it and exert it to add a burden.
Three times Lorien had been assailed from Dol Guldur...
H3 U 96
And now a card to go make this site-stacking not seem so out of place for the culture which lem0n probably won’t like, but never mind!
• Fortress of the Necromancer
Condition • Support Area
When you play this condition, you may spot a minion to stack a site on your Shadow card from your adventure deck.
Response: If a minion is about to take any number of wounds in a skirmish, discard a site stacked here to prevent those wounds.
Shadow: Discard a site stacked here to heal a minion.
H3 C 154
And I think this wraith got lost somewhere, so now it’s found again:
• Watcher of Dol Guldur
Minion • Wraith
Str: 9
Vit: 3
Sit: 6
Enduring.
Each time a Locked companion loses a skirmish, you may add a burden.

Oops. Well, I don’t see anything I would say that wasn’t said already, so now I get to take the first crack at the new stuff (unless the spammer god beats me to it...wouldn’t be the first time ).

Again with the site stacking. Lem0n’s gonna LOVE this. To be honest, I’m wishy-washy on the concept too...but this card seems fine.

One potential problem: if, for some weird reason, you chose to stack the site on a card that didn’t have a way to discard it or return it to your deck, and you ran out of sites, what would happen?
Seems alright other than that, though. MAYBE make it unique.

To clarify the rules for site stacking:
1) Discarded sites return to their owner’s adventure deck.
2) If a player is required to play a site but cannot, their first opponent may choose a stacked site and use that instead.

Remembered the first one, but either forgot or didn’t know the second one. Okay, then. |

Gah. I cant say anything more than ive already said about making my feelings clear DI, Thran knows. Apart from the obvious, seems ok.
And now a card to go make this site-stacking not seem so out of place for the culture which lem0n probably won’t like, but never mind!
Then why make it? Im 1/3 of your reviews whether you like it or not!

Because there was no culture in the Battle of the Five Armies and site stacking is one of the major mechanics of this block (whether you like it or not! ). I think it’s good to have an alternate use for the site path - I’ve always thought so much more could have been made out of adventure decks.
Originally I had planned sites that go into your deck which you can then play from your hand but decided stacking makes a lot more sense.
