This guy really is a master of weapons -- while bearing a possession he’ll be at least strength +2, very likely strength +4, and possibly even a lot more, not even counting the bonus from the possession itself!
The only trouble is that "spot 2  Men" requirement. Even a dedicated Evil Men deck may sometimes find itself in a position where Sunland Weaponmaster can’t be used to his full potential, because you don’t have the right cards in hand (2 minions and a possession, plus this minion), or because there’s not enough Shadow-phase twilight available to put the combo together.
Still, it’s a strong card that goes well with some other new cards we’ve seen for the culture. Imagine this guy as fierce, damage +1 and around 20 strength with a Beast of War.  |

| Holy cow, a great card! In the right deck, of course. I’m thinking a swarm with this guy, so that he can tank up and take out a companion, Sauron-style. |

This guy could be pretty good in a Support Area possession deck. Stack him on a possession like Cerimonial Armor and then play him with Pandemonium when you have enough minions out.
I wonder if there’ll be a way to stack minions from hand?
And once this guy’s in play with a possession, he kicks butt  |

Death to the three hunters!
A good three hunters deck has at least four cultures
Isildur, Bearer of Heirlooms / Aragorn, Thorongil
Legolas, of the Woodlan Realm
Gimli, Eager Hunter
Gandalf, Leader of the Company and/or Radagast, the Brown
THAT’S STRENGTH + 8!
With a Frodo RB, +10, but a good three hunters deck should use Isildur RB...
+ worn battleaxe and a bunch of lurkers... |

| hes’ pretty cool, and with all the possession a big tank, What exactly does Sunland mean? Anyway, if skirmishing a low resistance companion, with mumak, and war trident, lets see here, 25 strength if I am correct. Ow. |

Not to my kind of 3 Hunters deck.
Ringbarer Frodo or Isildur.
Starters Legolas and Gimli hunters.
Aragorn Thorongil, Eowyn, Eomer and Gamling from Hunters.
This is 4 or 5 cultures, but I also play 3-4 Seclusion, and 3-4 For the Mark. |
