Anyway, whoever can trash AP and make HIM report the game will get a

Try OneFathom. I haven’t beaten him yet.

Game Result
DáinIronfoot’s Elven

Tokens + Archery w/ Dunland

Men
vs.
my Dwarven

Discard w/ Sauron

Discard

My fellowship got off to a slow start and his archery completely nailed my minions up until site 5, but I managed to play several of my Sauron

conditions. We both landed at site 6 with a few wounds each. He singled to 7 and I played 4 minions; he stopped. I singled to 7 after him with 7 companions, but at that point SdA disconnected. We both believed that we would have been able to beat the other, so we called it a draw. Good game! Very Happy

Game Result
macheteman’s Dwarven

Tokens w/

Besiegers
vs.
my Elven

Hunters w/ Multicultural Beatdown

His Thrarin was killed at site 3, and I pulled into site 3 with a few wounds. He doubled to 5 and took a severe beating, but his companions survived. I doubled after him and used my archery to nail his minions at both sites. He moved to 6 with Gimli 3 burdens shy of corruption, and every companion (Gimli, Durin, and Gloin) exhausted. The site that I played? Doorway to Doom. Twisted Evil

He discarded 2 Dwarven Bracers for the site, but I played Lurtz, Minion of the White Wizard and Morgul Creeper, meaning that he had to take 3 archery. At this point, he had to leave, but in theory:

He would have discarded Gimli’s Bracers for one of the wounds, and then either:

A. added 2 burdens to Gimli
B. added a burden and killed Gloin or Durin
C. killed Gloin and Durin

If he added the 2 burdens, then everyone still would be alive, but Lurtz would be a 22-strength with his text, killing either Durin or Gloin unless he had several skirmish events in hand. This would have triggered the 2 threats, forcing him to kill Gloin and add the fatal wound or burden or Gimli.

If he chose option B, then Gimli would have to skirmish a minion and his start-of-skirmish text would corrupt him.

And if he chose option C, he would add 2 burdens for the skirmish (putting him at 10 resistance / 9 burdens). Lurtz would be a 16-strength due to Gimli being exhausted, and the Creeper would have made it 24 versus 7 (possibly 8, I can’t remember the other cards that he was bearing). Either way, Gimli would have lost the skirmish, taking the final wound or burden.

Edit: C would also have triggered those 2 threats, making it so that Gimli’s start-of-skirmish would have corrupted him.

So mm would have lost no matter which option he chose. Good game! Very Happy

Game Result
DáinIronfoot’s Gondor

Knights + Gandalf w/ Sauron

Besiegers
vs.
my Elven

Hunters w/ Multicultural “Stomp-the-Blood-Out-of-Your-Veins” Beatdown

I won the bid 1-0 and chose for him to go first. He played a couple of fortifications and possessions and moved into Doorway to Doom. I played Nelya to replace the site, and then played another minion. He took a couple of wounds and stopped. Fortunately for me, he had played Trollshaw Forest as site 1. I played 2 Elven Bows and drew 2 Sword of the Fallens with the site. I also got to play Legolas and a Guardian. I moved to 2, took care of his minions with archery, and stopped. He moved to 3 and I played a few minions, which he managed to survive. He stopped at site 3 with 10 wounds. I moved behind him and he played a couple of big besiegers, and I stopped at 3 with about half a dozen wounds.

We both moved through region 2 taking a beating from the other. His besiegers, when not killed by my arrows, were winning most of their skirmishes, and my minions were stacking the wounds on him. I killed Knight of Dol Amroth at site 4, but he kept the rest alive until…

He singled to site 7. I played the Orc

Gothmog, another minion, and SAURON! Twisted Evil

Even though he used Grimbeorn to discard the same Sauron for a +24 pump, I soaked up Gothmog’s archery with Sauron, making it a 30-30 tie. Grimbeorn took 3 more wounds, and then was killed in the fierce skirmish. He stopped at site 7. I singled to 7 and took a few wounds from Gothmog, but I killed his minions in the archery and skirmish phases. I decided to risk the double to 8, and he played Mithlond, which healed all but 1 wound on my companions. He could only play 1 minion, and I stopped at 8 with only 2 wounds on my companions.

He moved to 8 and I played 3 minions. He could only kill one of them, and he was forced to double to 9 in his final shot at beating me. I played the Orc

Gothmog again and Archer of Harad. He took the wounds without a companion dying, but Isildur’s start-of-skirmish text killed him. By the way, Dáin refuses to play me if I use this deck again. I challenge anyone who wants to take a shot against it… Twisted Evil

I wouldn’t mind trying my hand at it. It sounds quite formidable, but sounds like it would make for an interesting game. Maybe we can get in a game sometime tomorrow. I’ll hit you up then and see if you’re interested.

I believe it is standard if I’m not mistaken. I played my Gandalf Men paired with [orc] Wargs against it and that deck is standard. He must have modified it since then cause when he played it (maybe it was a test run) he had Frenzy of arrows in it which he couldn’t even use. He killed me off at 8 I believe which was a great achievement for Gandy RB with his men Very Happy

. It was a great game btw AP and I wouldn’t mind another shot at it now that it is complete without useless cards Laughing

. Maybe we can squeeze a game in this weekend.

Yeah, I killed you at site 6 with it.

And NK also played against it and lost at site 8, but I’ve tweaked it a bit since then.

OneFathom, I can start a game around 2 o’clock EST. Thumbs Up

YEAH!!!!! i beat AP!!!

AP’s pipeweedish hobbits/forestguls w/shapes

vs.

mm’s Dwarven

cyclingish & Gandalf site manipulationish/ Troll swarm

I went second, and his shadow got nailed by all my traveled leaders, and i kept replaying ruins for 4 twilight per site. and couldn’t get my goblin swarms out. but nonetheless i managed to beat him up on almost every site. and finally killed pippin to trigger the 5 threats he had added with gorn’s bow. and the next site i dumped keyword 2 random trolls and cave troll to kill him.

and then, we played again and it was really pitiful on my part. i’m sure he’ll give you the full story, complete with gory details:
