Here, have some reviews!
NBarden wrote: •Ufthak, Forgotten One
Minion • Orc
Strength: 8
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 8
When you play Ufthak, you may exert him and spot Shelob to play a possession from your draw deck.
Regroup: Stack Ufthak on a possession to make the Free Peoples player wound a companion for each possession you spot (limit: 3).
"’She’d forgotten him, maybe, but we didn’t touch him’"
00R122
Neato. I would just increase the strength to 9 or 10 since he will cost 6 most of the time.
NBarden wrote: Cirith Ungol Orc
Strength: 2
Vitality: 2
Site Number: 8
While skirmishing a wounded character, this minion is strength +4.
Regroup:Stack this minion on a possession to exert a companion.
00U123
With such a high site number, I can’t help but feel that he should have 4 strength.
NBarden wrote: •Shelob, Guardian of Cirith Ungol
Minion • Spider

Fierce. Damage +1
Shelob is strength +2 for each possession you spot. (limit: +8 )
Shadow: Discard Shelob and discard an Orc stacked on a possession to make the Free Peoples player exert a companion for each possession you spot (limit: 3).
00U124
Cool! That Shadow ability would be neat if you could also use it during regroup.

You need to add ’from hand’. I just can’t see this Gollum being used in a deck though, so you should either make the regroup ability work in maneuver or add some other sweet ability.
NBarden wrote: •Gollum, Servant of Shelob

Sneak. (This minion is played facedown and is revealed at the beginning of its skirmish)

I would add ’you may’, and change ’him’ to ’Gollum’ (hey, some people might not know that Shelob is a girl! ).

Title is very similar to Gollum, Her Sneak. Pretty cool though, I would just make it exert the companion that bearer is skirmishing (hey, if people thought Saruman, Servant of Sauron was broken...)

00R133
That first ability is enough to make the card worthwhile. I’d change it to add a threat for each companion over 2. Oh, and "fellowship" shouldn’t be capitalized. And you spelled ’an’ as ’on’ in the regroup ability.

Cool. If the wound kills the companion, does the minion still get discarded? I mean, it might be hard to be skirmishing someone who is dead.

I don’t really like using ’you may’ because NG is so powerful anyway that they should have to face the consequences of enduring, etc.
And the extra apostrophe is intentional, if I remove it I get a cool dude with sunglasses, . If I disable smileys, I don’t get the culture symbols, twilight cost, etc. |

Next culture, ! There will only be the old cultures, , , , , , for bad guys, I concluded that after much deliberation.
See if you can figure out ’s new strategy.
•Saruman, Seeker of the Ring
Minion • Wizard
Strength: 8
Vitality: 4
Site Number: 4
Captain 1.
Saruman may not take archery wounds and may not be assigned to skirmishes.
Each Uruk-Hai is twilight cost -1 for each burden you spot. (Limit: 2)
Regroup: Exert Saruman and discard an unwounded Uruk-Hai to add a burden.
00R144
•Saruman’s Ring
Artifact • Ring
Vitality: +1
Bearer must be Saruman.
Each time a burden is added, you may exert Saruman to add a threat.
00R+145
•Saruman’s Staff, Weapon of Power
Artifact • Staff
When you play this artifact, you may discard Gandalf’s Staff.
Saruman may be assigned to skirmishes, regardless of his text.
Skirmish: Discard Saruman to add a burden or two threats.
00R146
And Saruman is now a critical part of any new decktype.
Anyone figure out the new strategy? |

The first ability is WAY too good. I think I’d reduce them all by -1 if you can spot 2 burdens, and MAYBE then do -2 when you can spot 6 burdens or something.

Interesting how it works in the skirmish phase. Balanced, though. Almost bland, actually. You might want to add in allowing him to be assigned to skirmishes.
Also, shouldn’t it have the standard strength +2 boost? |

Not sure about this one. If he gets a broad-bladed sword, he can beat up some hobbits, maybe. Not to mention that if Rosie Cotton is in the fellowship, more burdens. Play him right, he can throw on 4 burdens. But then, he has to win, so you would probably need some pumps. Thinking about dropping twilight to 1, any thoughts? |

Don’t forget the periods. Burden-adding is certainly interesting. I’d exert him twice for his maneuver ability, or limit it to once per turn.

I think it’s costed alright considering the ability. I’d put some spotting requirement on the assignment ability, like spotting a certain number of burdens or threats or something. I know he’s weak, but I think he should be unique, too. Can you imagine four of these at once? Maybe up his strength a little if you go the unique route. |
