From the Depths
Event • Maneuver
Reveal X Orcs from hand to add (X).
“Nothing more was heard for several minutes; but then there came out of the depths faint knocks: tom-tap, tap-tom. They stopped, and when the echoes had died away, they were repeated: tap-tom, tom-tap, tap-tap, tom.”

Spoiled and Ransacked
Event • Shadow
Place a possession from the Free Peoples player’s discard pile beneath their draw deck to take a possession of the same class into hand from your draw deck.
“There were many recesses cut in the rock of the walls, and in them were large iron-bound chests of wood. All had been broken and plundered....”

If I did, that’s purely coincidental.

Cool but of limited use seeing as youll have played your minions in the shadow. Nice idea though.

Interesting, unique idea, not bad, again limited use unless you can guarantee a possession in their discard pile. Do you have any cards that discard free peoples stuff?

Goblin Shield

Bearer must be a Orc.
Skirmish: Exert bearer and discard this possession to wound a companion bearer is skirmishing.
Response: If bearer is about to take a wound, discard this possession to prevent that wound.
The shields were made of metal and were relatively large...their ridged surface curved around the arm and ended in spikes that could be used for stabbing.

While you can spot The Balrog, bearer is vitality +1.
If The Balrog is discarded or killed, discard this possession.
The jagged Orc armor resembled the Balrog’s flaming body.

Good second bit of text but the first is unusual for a shield. Its defensive not offensive unless youre legolas at the hornburg. Id change it so it just said if bearer is about to take any number of wounds in a skirmish discard this to prevent that. And give it strength plus 1.

The jagged Orc armor resembled the flaming form of Durin’s Bane.

Hmmm ok interesting..

Hmm ok Dain, its no big deal. Fair enough. Where did you get the bit about the armor looking like the balrog?

I think I got it from The Lord of the Rings: Weapons and Warfare, but it’s true if you look at ’em.
