Archery: Discard this possession to make the fellowship archery total +1.

I dunno... the hunter bonus and the archery ability don’t really feel very "Shirish" to me.

Nice.

Muster.
Skirmish: Exert Bilbo twice to cancel a skirmish involving a Hobbit companion. U103
The skirmish ability is probably balanced, since Bilbo, Aged Ring-bearer is so darned good. But the muster part just doesn’t fit in.

Hunter 1.
Maneuver: Exert Sam to make Frodo strength +1 for each burden over 4 you can spot.
If Frodo dies, make Sam the Ring-bearer (resistance 6).
R104
A lot of problems with this card:
1. The title is very similar to Sam, Samwise the Brave.
2. Sam’s resistance could probably be higher, looking at Sam, Steadfast Friend and Sam, Innocent Traveler.
3. The hunter bonus is okay, but it really doesn’t seem like the right keyword for Hobbits.
4. The maneuver ability is kinda worthless since you don’t do skirmishes in maneuver. You need to change it to a skirmish ability (and even then it might be a bit too good, I dunno - maybe add a limit of +4).
5. The Frodo dying part needs to say "Response:", and you should follow the format of Sam, Innocent Traveler by dropping the "(resistance 6)" part and adding at the beginning of the game text "While Sam bears the One Ring, he is resistance –4."

I tweaked Farmer Maggot’s text, dropped Bilbo’s muster, and majorly revised Sam. Thanks for the reviews, EL and AC!  |

Much better. I would just drop Sam’s resistance to 9.

I think the strength boost should trigger off something other than minions, personally. But it’s okay as is.

Yes! I can’t believe a card like this doesn’t exist already. |
