“‘I have got my ring and will creep down this very noon-then if ever Smaug ought to be napping-and see what he is up to.’”

I made Quite a Merry Gathering! unique to balance it out a little better. Otherwise you could throw four out and just spot Bilbo for each, which could get a little out of hand. I think people were seeing that and a little worried. :whistled:

Dáin’s DC Duos #58

You all kept up your end of the deal with three reviews of Duo #57. So on we go!

This time, we start to get into the stealthy, burglar side of Bilbo even he didn’t know he had until he needed it. Both of these cards simply remove twilight, the amount of which depends on the vitality of a minion. Since Lasting Alliances alone has 20+ minions with at least 4 vitality, and 12 with at least 5 vitality, thanks to Spiders), they can really do some damage, too. Enjoy!

[b]Hm...putting on the One Ring is quite risky...

It would really be neat if you and your opponent set up a Riddle duel.

More stealth today, this time focusing on some more traditional Hobbit tricks. I’ll let the cards speak for themselves, because I’m kinda busy today. Enjoy!

Just put "exert a hobbit (or spot Bilbo) to take a card into hand from your draw deck."

My question: should I put a stealth keyword on this one?

I don’t think so....
