I chose the assignment phase for this as i didnt want him to be able to do it in skirmish as it would be too hard, as thats when youre kost likely to get Ardor. This way you have to die in the arhcery to get Ardor.
Sloppy Sloppy Sloppy. Look at all those typos!  . Otherwise, I’d put after archery fire has been exchanged or something. Assignment sounds weird.

Yeah, I found it a bit of a shock when I realized the culture had no archers and no way of getting them. You may as well reprint Frenzy of Arrows, though, because it would see tons of use with your cards.
This guy’s fine, though don’t miss the period after Archer and, again, the comma after "Ardor". "Each" is probably better than "every", too.

Ah, you got the comma for this one!  Missed the period after Archer again, though. Two steps forward, one step back.

I didnt make these in mind with Frenzy of Arrows as i hate that card so much erratered or not i choose to ignore its existance.
They are kinda bland but every card cant be fascinating! Besides theyre on formula like the morgul arrow guys.

I think I’d probably ignore all existing cards (by the way, for the Orc culture the ’O’ needs to be capitalised or it won’t turn into the symbol, eg. [orc]) or reprint refined versions of them, if you feel so inclined.
Fine cards though, especially the first one, though I’m not sure if ardour always needs a capital (initiative doesn’t) but it’s your choice.

Grrrr weird USA keep forgetting for some reason you think thats a bad word. Ah well.
Thanks Thran youre right i wont keep capitalising ardor.
Ill also do what NB cleverely suggested. I am X-ing Lackey and Frenzy of Arrows for my set.
Moving on i will show a few more minions before i show some other stuff as i have lots.
 Battlefield Pikemen
Minion • Orc
Strength: 9
vitality: 3
Site: 4
Resourceful. (The twilight cost of each card played on this minion is -1.)
While you can spot 2 Orcs, each free peoples mount loses its gametext.
While bearing an hand weapon this minion is damage +1.
Cavalry charges cannot break a solid line of spears.

Battlefield Swarm
Minion • Orc
Strength: 12
vitality: 3
Site: 4
When you play this minion if the fellowship is unbalanced, you may remove  to play another Battlefield Swarm from your draw deck or discard pile, that minion is fierce.

• Warrior Brute
Minion • Orc
Strength: 10
vitality: 3
Site: 4
Invader. Assaulter 1. (Each time you play an skirmish event in a skirmish involving this minion it is strength +1)
To play spot an minion.
Assignment: Exert this minion twice and remove to assign it to a companion (except the ring-bearer). The Free Peoples player may prevent this by discarding all free peoples card borne by that companion.
Fear forced many defenders to abandon their weapons in the face of the relentless onslaught.

Great idea, but unfortunately almost as broken as Destroyers and Usurpers - no enforcement and no conditions, just a blanket prohibition. It NEEDS a condition. Good card otherwise.

I think the fierce bit is perhaps unnecessary. Nice and clever ability though.

’Free Peoples’ should always have capital letters. Perhaps all cards is too much, maybe just 1 card would be enough, but I like him.
Also, what’s the problem with ’damn’ or ’damned’?

Yeah you would discard none, as that is all the cards you bear. Ill wait for another review Thran before i change it from all to 1.
I think the fierce thing is necessary becasue if the fellowship is unbalanced you need a way of chopping it down so fierce is useful. A 5 cost 12 strength guy none fierce without damage doesnt help much.
Good call on the none enforcement mount thing Thran. And by the way i got told off by a mod for using d*mn. Apparently, unlike the UK, the USA class it as a bad word. Dunno why but there you go! |
