For a card that’s so specific, I don’t think it’s good enough. I’d make it remove for each forest site you can spot, and leave it at that.

I think I’ll drop the cost of Deep In The Woods to  to make it a little more useful. Let me know if you think that’s a bad idea.
I came into the Wood-elves with a full head of steam, thinking that cranking out new cards would easy, but I’ve hit a bit of a rut. So let’s switch to the other FP race for a little bit.  Enjoy!
 •Grimbeorn, Son of Beorn
Companion • Man
Strength: 4
Vitality: 5
Resistance: 6
Hunter 2.
Grimbeorn may be spotted as a  Man.
At the start of each turn, you may heal Grimbeorn.
Maneuver: Exert Grimbeorn to make a Man strength +2 until the regroup phase. Limit once per companion (unless that companion is Beorn or Grimbeorn).

I would raise his strength to 5 and drop his hunter bonus to 2. Neat card!  |

Hmmm...still trying to decide exactly how to tweak Grimbeorn, or even IF he needs it. The reviews were pretty varied. 
Well, while I think on that, here’s a couple more Woodmen. Enjoy!
Beorning Woodman
Companion • Man
Strength: 6
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 6
Hunter 1.
While you can spot another Man, this companion is also Man.
If a Shadow player is about to replace a forest or river site, exert this companion and discard a card from hand to prevent that.
“‘If it were not for the Beornings, the passage from Dale to Rivendell would long ago have become impossible.’”
Beorning Skin-changer
Companion • Man
Strength: 4
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 5
Hunter 1.
While you can spot another Man, this companion is also Man.
This companion is strength +1 for each other and Man companion you can spot (limit +4).
“‘Still, they are trusty, and that is much in these days.’” |

He simply needs more for me. Make his second ability +2 and take down his hunter bonus, or reduce his cost to or he’s not really worth it compared to the current version of him. Also I think the first bit should be rephrased as: ’Grimbeorn has the culture.’

Certainly there should be an ’a’ in between ’also’ and ’’, but I’d suggest my rephrasing above as well. Take out one of the costs on his ability, and he’d still be cool.

You don’t need ’companion’, unless your planning on evil or Men. Nice.

maybe and discard the card that would have replaced it? or however you would word that.

should be for each other first. So if you had 1 gandalf man and one beorning he would be 7 strength right? cause you could spot the beorning as a gandalf man and a G man? |

Okay, I made a couple tweaks to the last cards, and also went back and made a few changes to Beorn based on Thranduil’s comments. Thanks, boys!
Here’s a couple fun cards that can support the Woodmen, and one of them can benefit lots of OTHER companions as well. Enjoy!
Many Sturdy Men
Condition • Support Area
While the fellowship is at a forest, river, or mountain site, each Man is strength +1.
“...to their land between the Mountains and Mirkwood neither orc nor wolf dared to go.”
Common Enemy
Condition • Support Area
Skirmish: Exert a companion of one race to make a or companion of a different race gain hunter 1.
“...for there were certain Woodmen who got news to Thranduil by runners, and also themselves gathered themselves a force to ambush the Orcs....” |

Ok you need to do one of 2 things or both, make it unique and bump the strenght to +2 or change it to 2 of the 3 possible locations. Its good card though kinda like mountain homestead and g for grand mixed. I dont think it needs cultural enforcement to play either so it could work with a splash man.

Not sure i understand the wording Dain. The race has to be different than the companion you exert? Whatever it is i get the idea and it seems cool enough.
