Not sure why you have the high cost with reduction. I’d just make it 2 and drop the spotting thing altogether. But the rest looks fine.

I think SoP’s right on the wording of the first ability. The second seems awfully powerful, even for a locked ability...perhaps make it simply exerting?

No Bandobras? For shame!

Seems okay. That last one IS a tad powerful, though...perhaps only allow if you cannot spot a certain number of burdens or something.

I was going to say exactly what dain said about the cost but then i though +2??? With how easy it is to get shire tokens. Mental. +1 is better though slightly weak. 1.5 tokens would be better but seeing as thats not possible id say 2 tokens for +3.

Phrasing is to take a shire event into hand from your discard pile. I could agree with the others about the locked ability but hobbits need shire events so i can see both sides of the arguement. Bum.

That could lead to frod rb being awesomely good. Change last ability to something else then its ok if still a little powerful overall.

Good to have such a succinct reply!

Well, I promised our friend Bullroarer, so here he is:

2 • Bandobras Took, Bullroarer Shire
Companion • Hobbit
Str: 3
Vit: 4
Res: 8
To play, spot 2 Hobbits.
At the start of each skirmish involving Bandobras Took, you may exert him to Unlock all cards borne by him.
Locked: Bandobras Took is strength +1 for each Locked card you can spot.
He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram... and knocked their King Golfimbul’s head clean off with a wooden club.
H3 U 128

1 • Bungo Baggins, Estimable Hobbit Shire
Companion • Hobbit
Str: 3
Vit: 4
Res: 8
Each time Bungo Baggins is assigned to a skirmish, Lock him until the regroup phase or add a burden.
At the start of each skirmish involving Bungo Baggins, you may play a Shire condition from your discard pile (and reinforce a Shire token if played on a Hobbit).
... the Tooks were not as respectable as the Bagginses, though they were undoubtedly richer.
H3 C 132

Just to clarify these guys a little, you may remember that there were quite a few Shire conditions in the last 2 sets that played on Hobbits and had Locked abilities, which is what those last cards are specifically referring to. As an example, here’s one from this set:

1 A Dash of the Took Shire
Condition
To play, spot 2 Hobbits (or Bilbo).
Bearer must be a Hobbit.
Limit 1 per bearer.
Locked: Bearer is strength +2.
It was often said (in other families) that long ago one of the Took ancestors must have taken a fairy wife.
H3 C 127

Maybe have some cost associated with unlocking all his cards. Other than that, extremely strong... but that does fit this character!

Cool. Mind linking me to a basic Shire unlocking card? (since I haven’t been checking here much, sorry!) This card is definately a main reason I’d like some cost for Bullroarer’s first text.

so you have to lock him, then unlock him, and his first ability is nearly worthless. it shuold be you may lock or unlock all card borne by him

Id limit the locked cards to a certain culture or 2 that would work best. Apart from that cool.

I was in two minds about that because on the one hand you get to use his Locked conditions with ease, but on the other hand it makes him lose out on strength. My main thought was that it was for use when you didn’t have the facility to Unlock his strength pump at the time.

If you take the link in my sig, you’ll find my master links list (hidden in a secret location Cool ) and then you just go to Shire for H1 and H2 and you’ll find them.

Fair enough. I’ll probably change it for that and the others.

Okay, let’s have another condition then some events.

1 Sick At Heart Shire
Condition
Bearer must be a Hobbit.
Limit 1 per bearer.
Locked: At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may stack a Shire card from hand on a Shire condition.
H3 C 138

Which references the copious amounts of stacking from the Battle of the Five Armies (easily accessible through the link in my sig).

2 Fiercer and Bolder Shire
Event • Skirmish
Make a Hobbit strength +2 and damage +1. Then, you may exert him or her to make him or her strength +1 for each Shire condition he or she bears.
’... help oft shall come from the hands of the weak when the Wise falter.’
H3 U 133

2 Great Courage Shire
Event • Skirmish
Make a Hobbit strength +3. Then, you may exert him or her to make him or her strength +1 for each Locked Free Peoples card you can spot.
’If this hobbit goes with you, you will succeed. If not, you will fail.’
H3 U 136
