What’s the big deal of reducing someone’s site number by so little in the maneuver phase? Make it  and replace ’two’ with ’2’, or make it site number -2.

It would be helpful if you reminded us of your keywords. What’s reinforcements?

I’d probably make it  to prevent 3 or 4 of them being played at once and killing everyone.

I don’t think the ’non-enduring’ bit is that important.

Nice subtitle. Firstly, I’d make him site number 4 like all other Sarumans. Secondly, I’d put the second ability before the first ability, because I think it looks better. Otherwise, nice one.

Thanks for the reviews! I’ll edit the Maneuver event to last until the regroup phase (  ), and drop the twilight cost...it should be enough. I’ll up the cost of Caught Off-Guard, too.
And here’s a spoiler to tide you over...
•Frodo, Bound by Orcs 
Companion • Hobbit
Strength: 3
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 7
Ring-bound.
Frodo may not bear possessions. While Frodo has Resistance 5 or more, he is strength +2, gains hunter 1, and cannot take more than one wound in each phase.
Each time Frodo loses a skirmish, you may add a threat to make a companion strength +2 and damage +1 until the regroup phase.

Too bad he can’t bear Sting, but he CAN still bear his mithril-coat and most versions of Galadriel’s Phial, which is good. I’d certainly consider using him, though it’s hard to bump up his resistance. I’d probably give him Phial of Galadriel, The Light of Earendil, especially if I used him with a lot of Hobbits. He’d work pretty well in a / deck with a couple artifacts and Scroll of Isildur.
So in other words, he works, and he does just what good DCs should do: make you immediately see what potential he has.  for a neat card! |

Interesting card, but his response ability currently doesn’t do anything, as the bonus only lasts until the end of the skirmish phase. It should make it until the regroup phase, and should be an ’each time’ ability otherwise you lose 1 fight and add 9 threats to make someone strength +18 and damage +9!

The second ability still needs a ’until the regroup phase’, methinks.

Wow...I’m bad. Anyway, here’s the other cards...and the  culture as well!
•Frodo, Bound by Orcs
Companion • Hobbit
Strength: 3
Vitality: 4
Resistance: 7
Ring-bound.
Frodo may not bear possessions. While Frodo has Resistance 5 or more, he is strength +2, gains hunter 1, and cannot take more than one wound in each phase.
Each time Frodo loses a skirmish, you may add a threat to make a companion strength +2 and damage +1 until the regroup phase.
"He was naked, lying as if in a swoon..."
R
Hobbit War-Cry
Condition
Vitality: +1
Bearer must be a ring-bound hobbit.
Regroup: Discard this condition to make the first Shadow player wound a minion.
" ’That one’s for my old Gaffer!’ "
R
•Sam, Bearer of Dedication
Companion • Hobbit
Strength: 3
Vitality: 4
Resistance: (5)
Ring-bound.
While Sam bears Sting or an artifact, he is resistance +1 for each ring-bound companion you can spot (limit +4). While Sam bears The One Ring, Frodo may not be overwhelmed unless his strength is tripled.
Each time Sam wins a skirmish, you may exert him to remove a threat.
Even when he thought Frodo was dead, Sam kept hope alive, taking the Ring upon himself.
R
 •Athal, Elven Raftsman
Follower
Resistance: +2
Aid-
Each time bearer wins a skirmish, you may reinforce an token.
Regroup: Transfer Athal to your support area to make the first Shadow player heal a companion.
" ’No time now!’ cried the raftsman. ’Shove off!’ "
R
•Built by Elves
Condition • Support Area
When you play this condition, spot an follower to add an token here.
Regroup: Remove 2 tokens from here to exhaust a minion. Add a threat or discard this condition.
"They were making up a raft of barrels, and the Raft-elves would soon be steering it off down the stream to Lake-town."
U
Friends to the Lakemen
Event • Response
If a  Man or an companion wins a skirmish, you may spot an follower to reinforce an token twice.
"Except for occasional squabbles about river-tolls they were friends with the Wood-Elves."
