My
Trust Me Aragorn/Weather Trackers vs his Gondor with Denethor setup/Southron initiative wounding
We both bid 0. I win the coin flip and make him go first. He starts a Boromir RB,
Denethor LoMT, and
Derufin. I start Gandalf and Frodo, and then draw an Aragorn and a
Trust me, doubling to 3 with no opposition from his shadow.
Imrahil didn't double so I'm ahead on the site path. He singles to site 3 unscathed, although I get Fell Voice on the Air and a
Weary out. At site 3 he takes a few cards from his draw deck, then heals with
Hard Choice and takes two more. Elendil with Narsil comes out and it's clear he hopes to triple to site six. At site 4 I play Ugluk, Mauhur, three other trackers, and
Wizard Storm, killing two of his seven companions, as well as forcing him to use all of his
Noble Leaders tokens. He discards them all with
Guarded (where'd that card come from?) and moves to site 5 through
Wizard Storm.
Saruman, SoS comes out with
Uruk Hunter who picks off Gandalf. I'm clogged with freeps cards by now so when he makes the triple move to site 6 I have only one more tracker to add. Still, Elendil is exhausted as well as most of the rest of his fellowship. For my next few free peoples turns
Imrahil just plays all the minions he has instead of trying to set up a decent swarm. Still, my 3 person fellowship is often outnumbered, but I have lots of stuff to help like 4x
Valiant Man of the West,
Coat of Mail on Aragorn,
Bounder, and
Trust Me.
I single to 5 and then double to 7 to give me the chance of doubling to 9 if I can't kill his fellowship. Meanwhile, my shadow kills off another companion, leaving him with Elendil, Aragorn (both with
Weary) and Boromir, who has two wounds and 5 burdens. I only manage to draw one Ugluk with a
Broad-Bladed sword, and I also play
Saruman's Snows. Because Elendil is one exertion from exhaustion and has
weary and Aragorn is exhausted, I think I'll manage to kill both of them. However,
Imrahil plays
Banner of the White Tree (
) on Elendil, beating Ugluk twice 12-11 and killing him.
Imrahil moves on and I draw into two copies of Saruman but no trackers.
Imrahil wins
