Return of the King
I’d just like to point out that these are getting really hard to do. By now Decipher had a pretty good design team and not a lot of stuff got left out.

0 The End of It Dwarven
Event • Maneuver
Add a threat to heal a Dwarf.

(Now that card is simply there to enhance Gimli’s Battle Axe, Trusted Weapon.)
Yeah, pretty good. Nice idea.
5 Force of Easterlings Raider
Minion • Man
Strength-10
Vitality-3
Roaming-4
Easterling. Damage +1. To play, spot an Easterling.
Skirmish: Exert this minion to make an Easterling who is damage +X strength +X.

(Easterlings in RotK were good at getting a damage bonus, but seemed too weak to win a skirmish. This isn’t much, but it would have helped.)
Very nice. Reminds me of Honed for minions.
2 Brazen-throated Trumpets Raider
Event • Response
If the Free Peoples player chooses to move again, exert a Raider minion to make the Free Peoples player discard 2 cards from hand.
Ouch! Nice one here.
(I wanted a card to go with Rout and other Raider initiative-based cards.)

To be frank, Rohan sucked in this set (and it continued to suck until Eowyn in Mount Doom). There just isn’t a lot I can do in a few cards to help them.

0 Won the Field Rohan
Event • Response
If a mounted Rohan Man wins a skirmish, heal him or her (or heal him or her twice if at a plains site).
Very good, I like this idea of healing after won skirmishes.
(Rohan in RotK was all over the place, with lots of little mini-ideas that never really worked. This incorporates them into just winning and then the plains theme.)

1 Unrivaled Charge Rohan
Condition
Bearer must be a Rohan companion.
Skirmish: If bearer is mounted, add a threat to play a Rohan possession on him or her from your discard pile. Any Shadow player may remove 3 to prevent this.
Yah, not bad. And I like the threats.
(Yeah. A pretty nice recursion card.)

Siege of Gondor
1 Gandalf Is Come! Gandalf
Condition
To play, spot Gandalf. Bearer must be an unbound companion.
Bearer gains the Gandalf signet.
Wow, it would completely make those cards much more worth it! Possibly even too much...
(This card would make Let Us Not Tarry so much better. Not to mention Trust Me As You Once Did.)

1 Fight For Us Gondor
Condition • Support Area
To play, exert a Gondor Man (or spot Aragorn).
Regroup: Spot 3 exhausted Gondor Wraiths and discard X Free Peoples cards from hand to remove X threats. Discard this condition.
I don’t think they needed threat control, but not a bad card.
(Threat control for Wraiths who, I think, need it.)

Now for this next one, I wanted to make Gothmog, Morgul Commander worth his cost. It’s a little specific, but oh well.

1 •A Worthy Captain Wraith
Condition • Support Area
Shadow: Spot a Wraith minion and discard this condition to play a unique Wraith Orc from your discard pile; that Orc is twilight cost -2 and fierce until the regroup phase.
Ouch-this is very good.
1 King’s Man Rohan
Condition
Bearer must be an unbound companion.
Bearer gains the Theoden signet, and while you can spot Theoden, bearer is strength +1.
Hmm...yeah, No Living Man would be incredibly powerful with this one. But good.
(More signet stuff, because I guess Decipher tried bringing them back a bit in SoG.)

Gosh, SoG was such a good set I’m running low on things to boost...

0 You Shall Not Touch Him Shire
Event • Assignment
Exert Sam to prevent a Gollum minion from being assigned to a skirmish until the regroup phase. The first Shadow player may make you wound a minion twice to prevent this.
Yah, this is a good card-I like that drawback with Shelob.
(Not really here to improve anything more than Sam-Frodo relations. I always thought something like this should have been made, and SoG felt like the right place to put it.)
"ok, change of plans. the Cobracards christmas party is coming to my house, and we’re gunna teach FM how to hunt." (mm)
