Well...I haven’t been as busy as originally thought, so I think I will (tentatively) begin making more cards.
Time for the  cards! I though that the shire should contribute to  ’s new strategy, so here are the hire cards.

Alright, each of these are missing something.
Green Dragon Bartender, Merry, Pippin and Rock each need a phase for their ability.
I’m guessing that Green Dragon Bartender’s is a fellowship, Merry and Pippin have skirmish abilities, and that Rock is an archery ability.
Rock and Hunting Bow each need to have who they can be played on (I’m guessing ’Bearer must be a Hobbit’, ’Bearer must be a Hobbit companion’ or ’Bearer must be a companion’). |

00C91
Unnoticed

Stealth

Assignment: Exert bearer to exert a minion.
00C92
Stout Heart
Condition
Bearer must be a hobbit. Limit one per bearer.
Each minion skirmishing bearer is strength –1 for each wound on that minion.

•The Green Dragon
Condition • Support Area
Each time the fellowship moves from a dwelling site, heal a hobbit.

I know it’s expensive, but seeing as how there’s no limit right now, you can remove double-digit burdens in one pop if you work at it. I’d put a cap on this...somewhere around 5.

No thanks. The idea isn’t bad, but Hobbits have much easier ways of cancelling skirmishes. Not sure, offhand, what to suggest to fix it. Sorry. 
NBarden wrote: Unnoticed

Now THIS I’d use. Might be cool if you slapped stealth onto this. Unusual, but cool.  MAYBE up the cost to .

Maybe prevent it from being used on the RB and remove the uniqueness.
NBarden wrote: Sterner Stuff

Bearer must be Frodo.
While bearer is the ring-bearer, he is resistance +2
Fellowship: If bearer is the ring-bearer, add two burdens to discard a shadow condition borne by him.
00R95
"While Frodo is the Ring-bearer...", "If Frodo is the Ring-bearer...". I think you could make one of the abilities work whether he’s the Ring-bearer or not...probably the resistance, so you can just take that out of the text and have a Resistance +2 "icon" before all the text.
NBarden wrote: Frivolity
Event • Fellowship
Exert two hobbits to remove a burden.
00C96
With cards like Sorry About Everything and Nine-fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom, this would probably never see use except in desperation.

A pipe without actually being a pipe. Nifty. I’d make sure you can’t use it on the RB, though, or it might get X-listed. Or at least errata’d.
I feel like I ripped into ya kinda hard, so here’s a  to help make up for it.  |

Thanks for the review!
I didn’t make the suggested changes to A Pint and The Green Dragon, because I think that if you go through the effort to get tons of tokens on A Pint with Hobbits (which is difficult), why shouldn’t you be able to peel off all those burdens?
And with The Green Dragon, sorry, The Green Dragon is unique. And what’s wrong with the RB healing? |

Eh, it just always makes me leary when it’s relatively easy to heal the RB. Takes one aspect out of it and forces the Shadow player to focus on Corruption, which isn’t always easy. But that’s just me. This IS coming from someone who has yet to play a game of LOTR TCG, so take it for what it’s worth.
As for the rest, no problemo, my man. They’re your cards, after all. Just my  |
