I’ve actually found that using incited to set up your fellowship while single moving every turn can set up your smeagol deck pretty well. Works wonders if you play it right ^_^
Habits of Home only removes what you’ve spent already (not what you’ll add for moving) ... so we still get the 6+2+site for moving (at sites 7-9) and even with pony and no stranger it’s still 6+...
