Wow, powerful! I’m thinkin’ that you might want to up the cost to 3, or maybe 4 with a toil 2.

The maneuver ability can just be worded "Discard this condition to play a weather event from your draw deck."

for a great bunch of cards (and BTW, my GP for reviewing the thread hasn’t come in yet... not to be picky, but I’d like to get up to 300 )

Brooding
Condition
Resistance -2
To play, exert 2 minions (or Smaug).
Bearer must be an unbound companion. Limit 1 per bearer. If bearer is a Dwarf with any damage bonuses, bearer is damage -1.
Discard this condition if you can spot 2 other companions of bearer’s race.
“...the armies were dispersed and the alliances broken and the axes of his people were few; and a great anger without hope burned him, as he smote the red iron on the anvil.”

Dragon-spell
Event • Response
Toil 1.
If the Ring-bearer puts on The One Ring, spot a Dragon to add a burden for each threat you can spot (limit 3).
“Whenever Smaug’s roving eye, seeking for him in the shadows, flashed across him, he trembled, and an unaccountable desire seized hold of him to rush out and reveal himself and tell all the truth to Smaug.”

Wouldn’t weather events that require spotting a weather condition not be able to spot this, then? That was the reason I used the unconventional wording: the order is very important.

Came From The North
Event • Shadow
Spot a Dwarf or Man and remove a threat to play an or minion from your draw deck.
“‘The first we heard of it was a noise like a hurricane coming from the North, and the pine-trees on the Mountain creaking and cracking in the wind.’”
make it cost 2 IMO

The Gathering of the Clouds
Event • Maneuver
Weather.
Exert a Dragon or Orc to make the Free Peoples player choose to either add 2 burdens or 2 threats.
“Still more suddenly a darkness came on with dreadful swiftness! A black cloud hurried over the sky. Winter thunder on a wild wind rolled roaring up and rumbled in the Mountain, and lightning lit its peak.”
oo, thats good, but with the 3 cost, balanced I guess

•Threat Of Oncoming Winter
Condition • Support Area
Weather. Toil 1. To play, spot an minion.
Each time the fellowship moves from a sanctuary, dwelling, or underground site, you may remove X threats to exert X companions.
Maneuver: Play a weather event from your draw deck. Discard this condition.
“A bitter easterly breeze blew....It swirled over and round the arms of the Mountain into the valley, and sighed among the rocks. After their long time in the stewing depths of the dragon-haunted caverns, they shivered in the sun.”

Dáin’s DC Duos #94

Should i review 92 or are you fine review wise?

IMO cut the toil.

Pretty cool. My only suggestion would be to just say "Bearer is damage -1 (to a minimum of 0)", instead of the current wording, because it would be kinda off if the companion had damage +1 and so triggered the damage -1 but then since he doesn’t have a damage bonus, the damage would come back would would trigger the damage -1... and on and on and on.

Neato. Are there going to be any ways for Smaug to force the RB to put on the Ring?

The one problem I can see is that it’s pretty bad in comparison to The Twilight World and Wraith-world, so you might want to drop the cost to 1 or maybe make it toil 2.
