Don't recall at the moment.

The fellowship is designed to chock and the shadow is Moria swarm.
I have used this deck for a number of years now and feel very comfortable using it.  I has always performed well. I'm interested if anyone has any feedback to add.

Thanks

How often do you double move with this fellowship?

[Knight-Who-Says-Nee]

It is very easy to double move at the start to site 3.  Usually it gives out about 5 maybe 6 pool for the first turn.  The double for the win (site 8 to 9) usually works out ok.  Cards like Depart Silently, Wielder of the Flame, and Bounder can keep minions off Frodo and keep him alive for the last site win. 

[Cw0rk]

Ok. Maybe you could add 1 PATHS agains't Moria.

[Knight-Who-Says-Nee]

If I get a PATHS, I will try it.  It definitely is a good card.

[Cw0rk]

Maybe add Relics of Moria for your shadow... You could drop 1 Host of thousands.

i recommend Deft in Their Movements for double moves as you can spot allies as well as companions for it

[Knight-Who-Says-Nee]

Thanks for the suggestions; I will experiment with these cards.

I have a bone to pick. Choke decks, by definition, play a very small amount of cards per turn, and I don't really see a lot of cycling, with a single They Are Coming tossed into a huge deck. I think you should invest in swarming, thus losing the Cave-Trolls, otherwise you might find your hand clogged in some games.

The vampire has a point.  Many times I have been mocked for using They are Coming, but it has shown its quality more times than I can count.  Clever idea for a Gandalf choke.  I never would have considered a Gandalf Defender.

I don't like the loose Cave Troll.

I'm confused, why are there 3 copies of they are coming.  It's good, but not that good.

[ephen]

They are Coming is great, cycling is always useful and sometimes you need to pull a Goblin Scavengers to draw a card and get things going.

[Ringbearer]

They Are Coming is usually at least x2 in my moria decks. Since the scimitas give you hand extension, you usually can pitch some free peoples cards to gain that last minion needed for the kill.
