I just wanted to show y’all a couple of cool new minions I got in my RoS packs:
This guy is the best splash for site control decks. Not only does he have decent stats... you also get to exert a companion for each site you control! The best part about it is that you choose who gets exerted. Combine 4 copies of him with Gothmog, Lieutenant of Morgul and you end up with a dead fellowship.
This guy fits perfectly into my  site control deck, since all my cards in that deck work on any Uruk-hai, not just Uruk-hai.
Once you get past the picture, you’ve got one heck of a minion. 
Next up:
Awesome stats and awesome picture. If the Free Peoples player wants to beat him with strength, they need at least 19 to best this minion.
Sure, he has a drawback, but in my Shelob, Eater of Light deck it doesn’t matter since I can just stack him on Web. Problem solved!
Not quite as cool of a minion as the Invader, but still a beast for only 4 twilight.
A very cool splash minion for a swarm deck. At region 2, he will only use up 1 twilight token, and in region 3 he is basically free.
---
Anybody else find any cool cards (that don’t have links on the RoS cardlist) in their packs?

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

| Yeah, I like the WH invader, goes well into any site control strategy. |

This isn’t a minion, but I find it to be a cool card:
Granted, the picture is dumb (how is a Rohirrim who can’t see gonna beat any minions???)
But the first ability is sweet against hunter decks, and the second ability is like an exertion for a +1 strength bonus. I wouldn’t mind having a nice ability like that to rely on if I needed to win a crucial skirmish.
And this other  condition is sweet too:
The first ability is a great way to get a +4 boost, and it works with any mounted companions! So that means that a Rohan deck with Aragorn + Brego or Gandalf + Shadowfax is a good idea, and you can even make some crazy Knights build without any in it.
The second ability is a nice way to counter Corsairs, Grond, and other nasty possessions (Evil Men Support Area Stacking comes to mind!).

| White Hand Invader lets you pick who gets exerted... makes him almost better than Gothmog... |
