Aragorn, King in Exile wrote: hmm, the maneuver text doesn’t really seem to fit with the twilight Nazgul theme. Maybe something like: Discard 2  cards to exert the Ring-bearer, if the Ring-bearer is then exhuasted, he or she wears the One Ring until the regroup phase. What do you think?
Well, the lurker did fit in with the feel of being ’in twilight’, but I understand your point. How is it now?

They’re urgently trying to get away from the weather! 
Aragorn, King in Exile wrote: I would use it.  You might want to up the cost a little as any minion culture can use it. Maybe to 1, IDK, what do you think? Also, I think you might want to word it like this: spot your minion to choose one: remove a threat; remove a burden; remove your culture token; or remove  . You may then choose one: add a threat; add a burden; reinforce your culture token; or add .
I’ll certainly change the wording, yours is clearer, but the cost is a little bit trickier. Certainly I’d have to change the adding to  if the cost was  . What if it requires an exertion? Maybe non-enduring? Or discarding a Shadow card from hand?
Thanks AkiE, I was beginning to think that lem0n was the only one reading this thread! Have a  because I’m feeling generous, and obviously for your great ideas!

Thats loads better now Thran fits in much better, however its too hard now, make it exert the nazgul as well or discard 2 cards. With a few cards in hand you could exhuast the rb with no way of stopping it. Play dark powers strengthen etc.. and its nasty.

I’m reluctant to make it exert (because of the many enduring Nazgul that could abuse this horribly) so I’ve made that the card you discard has to be a Nazgul. Is this better, or should it be 2 cards or even something else?

I think you could perhaps make it something like "Discard a Nazgul or artifact from hand to exert the Ring-bearer", or perhaps just a possession or two.

While you can spot Saruman, the twilight cost of each weather card is -1.
Each time you play a weather card, you may exert a companion or ally.
Yes! That would be awesome.

To play, spot your minion and choose one: remove a threat; remove a burden; remove your culture token; or remove .
Choose one: add a threat; add a burden; reinforce your culture token; or add .
Make the culture token match the culture of the minion you spot. Good otherwise. Nice little conversion thing.  |

Thanks all!
Some of you may remember that I began this thread making a card named after each block of the LOTR TCG, and then I started filling in the gaps in sets as well. I’d done Siege of Gondor then managed to run out of ideas.
Well, you may or may not be pleased to know that the inspiration came back to me, and now I will commence that theme with Shadows (given that Mount Doom is already a card).
Shadows
Condition • Support Area
Skirmish: Spot a Nazgul and remove a threat to play a Nazgul from hand. That Nazgul’s twilight cost is -4. You may then exert that Nazgul to play a possession or artifact on them from your hand. Discard this condition.

Wow awesome power. Very nice. Id make the nazgul fierce else it would be pointless if it wasnt a fierce nazgul.

Well, I’m back for a couple of days before I’m off again, and I was planning to spoil a card with the title ’Bloodlines’, and although I have made such a card, I don’t like it. So here’s Galadriel instead (you may note the similarity to Age’s End, the Three and the connection with Arwen, all earlier in this thread):
• Galadriel, Exile of Valinor 
Companion • Elf
Str: 3
Vit: 3
Res: 7
While the fellowship is in region 1, Galadriel cannot be overwhelmed unless her strength is tripled.
While the fellowship is in region 2, each Elf is strength +2.

Sweet but lower her resistance, she isnt a 9 resistance to the ring. |
