Sorry, SoP, I’m not sure what you meant on Wings Under Wing.
Also, I’d just like to check something with you lot:
When I spoiled Looking Ahead before, you wanted me to change the cost from  to  , looking like this:
Looking Ahead 
Event • Maneuver
Discard a Wizard or Eagle.
’Where did you go, if I may ask?’
H1 C 113
Then when I put up this card:
Beating Wings
Event • Maneuver
Discard an Eagle to wound a non-flyer minion.
Back swept the great birds that were with him and... smote them to the floor.
H1 U 88
no one complained.
What do people think about this comparison? Is it good as is?

I think a cost is ok, since it’s in the maneuver phase. If it were during the SKIRMISH phase, then yes it should cost .

Yes, this one needed to cost . |

Okay, I’ll compromise and take Looking Ahead down to and Pressing Business (which discards them if not assigned in the skirmish phase) I’ll keep at , because then they get to fight as well.
Onto Beorn now bearing this keyword in mind:
Terror X (Each time this character is assigned to skirmish an opponent’s character, they may make that opponent exert X of their characters.)
The number of cards for Beorn is very limited in the first set, but the basic strategy is choke, so you run no more than 3 companions (that’s Bilbo as Ring-bearer, Beorn, then maybe Gandalf, Balin, or even Grimbeorn if you’re dealing out of block) and then he absolutely canes everyone while Bilbo hides behind him and watches in awe! I have a feeling your opponent will be doing that to! 
 • Beorn, Agreeable Host
Companion • Man
Str: 7
Vit: 4
Res: 8
Damage +1.
Fellowship: If you cannot spot 4 companions, exert Beorn to remove .
Fellowship: If you cannot spot 4 companions, exert Beorn twice to remove  .
’... and you must be careful not to annoy him, or heaven knows what will happen.’
H1 C 89
• Beorn, Skin-Changer
Companion • Man
Str: 7
Vit: 4
Res: 8
Skirmish: If you cannot spot 4 companions, exert Beorn make him strength +5 (limit +10) and damage +1. Until the end of the regroup phase, he is not a Man.
’... sometimes he is a huge black bear, sometimes he is a great strong black haired man with huge arms and a great beard.’
H1 R 90
 • Beorn’s Axe
Possession • Hand Weapon
Str: +3
Bearer must be Beorn.
Beorn is terror 1 for each wound on him.
He was clothed in a tunic of wool down to his knees, and was leaning on a large axe.

I would make Skin-changer’s text exert him twice. Sweet cards!  |

instead of making it remove a gandalf card, it should be a gandalf companion IMHO
you could drop looking ahead cost to 0 but why not raise beating wings to 2
also BW is a U LA a C

Thanks SoP, both Beorns are now companions and his axe is suddenly a possession!  for pointing out the obvious!
I understood the first bit, but what is ’U LA a C’?

U+uncommon
LA= one of the cards in doubt leaving ahead of something C=Common
oh and when I made DC"s I made that mistake all the time |

very good, except the fellowship ability is a little un-beorn-ish. and underpowered. i’d make it add a threat to remove if i didn’t abolish that special ability altogether. and make it different. but altogether, not bad.
