Nice try. |

Guilty!
Looks like it’s going to be one of those last minute things for me (which I really shouldn’t do because I hate them for my Virtual Contest, but hey, what are you going to do?)

Yeah, sorry for the delay. I just got back from Colorado, and I haven’t really had time to do anything with it yet. I’ll try to get everything sorted out by Wednesday, or so.
Heck, I don’t even know who’s sent me the cards, and who hasn’t.... |

Alrighty, that took waaay too long. Sorry ’bout that.
So here we go! To refresh your memories:
I wrote: Alright, this round, we’ll have the following challenge.
Requirements:
Create a Support Area condition or Possession which:
Can either draw cards OR act as hand extension of some sort without being broken.
May be unique or non-unique.
Costs or less.
Again, lore is preferable, but not required. I’ll edit a paragraph or two into this topic when I have a chance for you to draw lore from if you don’t have the book, and don’t want to make up your own.
Good luck!
I apologize, but I didn’t ever get that lore edited in.
Here’s the running total at the moment:
el: 6
Dain: 4
Thran: 4
Lem0n: 2
Me and CBB: 0 (we forgot to even enter last time)
Voting: Each contestant should vote. Other voters are always welcome! Vote for your two favorites.
Not necessarily in any order, we have:
A
• Skillful Feats of Craftsmanship SH
Condition - Support Area
To play, exert a minion.
At the start of each of your Shadow phases, you may draw a card (or 2 cards if you can spot a Dwarf minion and a token).
Regroup: Discard this condition to heal each minion.
“‘From their beginnings they throve, the miner’s chisel and smith’s forge bringing them riches, power, and great influence over the affairs of the Elder Days.’”
B
• The Petty-Dwarves’ Greed SH
Condition - Support Area
To play, exert a minion.
Each time a burden is added, you may draw a card. If you draw more than one card this way during this turn, discard this condition.
"...the petty-dwarves loved none but themselves."
C
Old and Forgotten SH
Condition - Support Area
Shadow: If you cannot spot 3 cards stacked here, spot a minion to stack a card from hand here.
Shadow: Remove a burden, a token, or discard 2 cards from hand to take into hand a card stacked here.
"Being masterless and few in number, they found it hard to come by the ore of metals, and their smith-craft and store of weapons dwindled..."
D
• Dwarf Greed SH
Condition - Support area.
Each time your minion wins a skirmish, you may draw a card. The Free Peoples player may also draw a card.
Regroup: Remove this condition from the game and exert your dwarf to discard your hand and draw 8 cards.
"The affect the rings of power did not corrupt the dwarves, but caused them to become increasingly greedy and selfish."
Note: I know the lore isn’t Children of Hurin, but if it goes into the set, that can be changed easily enough. I might just nab the lore off card B for this one.
E
• House of the Petty-Dwarves SH
Condition - Support Area
To play exert a Dwarf.
At the start of each of your shadow phases you may exert a with muster to take a card into hand from here.
At the start of each regroup phase you may stack a card from hand here.
Mim’s refuge at Amon Rûdh was called Bar-en-Nibin-Noeg until the location was revealed to the outlaws then it became Bar-en-Danwedh; The House of Ransom.
F
• Dwarf-Sack SH
Possession - Support Area
To play, spot a Dwarf minion.
Shadow: If you cannot spot two cards here, you may stack a card from hand here to draw a card.
Maneuver: Exert your Dwarf and remove to take a card stacked here into hand.
Mim carried a heavy-laden sack, filled with the Earth-bread of the wild....
Alright, start voting!
...and if I forgot anything else important, tell me!
EDIT: Prospective deadline is SUNDAY MARCH 8. But I’m getting my wisdom teeth out just before then, so I may still be too drugged up to actually post anything, so expect delays... again. Sorry. |

I’m a little afraid of broken-ness on some of these. It’s hard to know how much card drawing/extention you can give a corruption deck without it being overpowered, although it’s something that every corruption shadow ever wishes it had. You know?
Anyways, my favorites were, in order:
A. (For being just plain awesome).
and
D. (For being just plain fun, though I’d change the title to "Dwarven Greed" or something). |

Ok a bit simple.

I like it but would have preferred it only when the shadow adds it.

Good but abusive as its not unique. Tokens are too easy to come by so this is amazing deck cycling.
D

Regroup: Remove this condition from the game and exert your dwarf to discard your hand and draw 8 cards.

Good but makes the game very oddly balanced.

I like it.

Simple yet effective.
