Just wanted to say after reading other posts, that my questions and thoughts may not be in the appropiate location here on the forum. I am sorry as I am new here. If admin needs to move any of my posts please do so.
I was reading an old post on alternante ringbearers and saw what they were saying as far as Smeagol goes sometimes as a stand alone or with
Faramir Son of Denethor. I have used Smeagol as the ringbearer with a full compliment of Ring bound rangers but never alone or just with Faramir. SO for those that know and have tried this what is the secret to it all? Obviously you would want to do this as a twlight chock deck and I love Faramir game text but what are the other cards you need to make this really happen?
You give him a Sword for 9 then maybe a range weapons for 10 and a good handful of cards can give him more vitality. What about Amor? The one that says unless his strength is triple or only takes one wound per skirmish What are other good cards on him? Do you use a boat load of Gondor pumps for Strength?
As far as Smeagol goes yes if things do get sticky with more minons I guess you can play two burdens and remove all minions but outside of his resistence of 7 and the ring that gives two more for 9 What other cards can be played on him to give even more resistence and or what cards can be used to remove burdens fairly quickly and easily. Bear in mind I do not have hardly any Smeagol cards at all, events, possessions etc. I know with his ability he would really not have to fight so that is good for his little strength. You do not want to put Sam in to remove burdens because that would start to take away your twlight chock deck by adding more people.
So anyway anybody that can help me with this as I would love to try it, please try and give me percise directions and cards needed to make this work. Thank you.
