Thanks for the reviews! Here’s a Saruman who combos with that Palantir.

•Saruman, The Wise
Minion • Wizard
Strength: 8
Vitality: 4
Site Number: 4
When you play Saruman, you may play an artifact from your discard pile or draw deck.
Regroup: Exert Saruman to discard the top card of each player’s draw deck.

Should probably either be a limit there, or a bigger cost, even though you have to discard your own cards too. Seems a little powerful to be able to take out 3 cards from the deck every time this guy shows up with his ring.

And a Ring to help him out:

•Saruman’s Ring
Artifact • Ring
Vitality +1
Bearer must be Saruman.
When you play this artifact, you may look at the top card of a player’s draw deck.
Assignment: Prevent Saruman from being assigned to a skirmish.

I like the whole Saruman/Palantir anti-telepathy thing

Rohirrim Betrayer

Strength: 7

When you play this minion, you may exert a companion bearing an condition.

Awesome. Simple and useful.

Informer of Orthanc
Minion • Man
Strength: 5
Vitality: 1

While you can spot a unique Man, this minion is strength +1 for each wound on each character he is skirmishing.

Hmm make it +2 or he’s not very good and will still lose.

Harsh Tidings
Event • Response
If a companion is killed, spot an Man to wound an unbound companion.

Good but sitting with this in your hand is a waste make it wound twice and cost or make it a condition.

Dark News
Event • Shadow
Exert Grima twice to return an exhausted unbound companion (and all cards he or she bears) to his owner’s hand.

Niiiiice.

•Grima, Cunning Advisor
Minion • Man
Strength: 4
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 3
Each time a companion is exerted, that companion is strength -2 until the end of the turn.

Wow thats good. Possibly one of the coolest grimas ever. Maybe a bit too hard actually AC, with the many ways that can happen maybe -1 is ok.

GP to the first review.


Yay money!
