As you can probably tell by the two Nazgûl already posted, there are two groups of Nazzies in The Road Ahead: black riders, and twilight minions. Here’re the rest of the riders. With these (and all the set’s Nazgûl), I tried to go back to their roots a bit, with abilities similiar to their pre-Shadows versions (when Decipher seemed to forget the themes they had going for many of the inidividual Nazgûl).
Anyway...enjoy!
 • Úlairë Lemenya, Rider in Black
Minion • Nazgûl
Strength: 9
Vitality: 2
Site: 3
Hunter 1.
Each companion skirmishing a mounted Nazgûl is strength -2 (or -3 if at a forest site).
“As Frodo watched he saw something dark pass across the lighter space between two trees, and then halt. It looked like the black shade of a horse led by a smaller black shadow.”
Brings back memories of the old Lemenya. I like it.
 • Úlairë Nertëa, Rider in Black
Minion • Nazgûl
Strength: 9
Vitality: 2
Site: 3
Hunter 1.
The twilight cost of each  mount is -1.
When you play Úlairë Nertëa, you may add a threat for each mounted Nazgûl you can spot.
“‘It’s from Hobbiton that this here black rider comes, unless there’s more than one. And I know where he’s going to.’”
Nice!
 • Úlairë Toldëa, Rider in Black
Minion • Nazgûl
Strength: 12
Vitality: 3
Site: 3
Fierce. Hunter 1.
Assignment: Exert Úlairë Toldëa twice (or once if at a forest site) to assign a companion (except the Ring-bearer) to skirmish a mounted Nazgûl. Limit once per phase.
“...on it sat a large man, who seemed to crouch in the saddle, wrapped in a great black cloak and hood, so that only his boots in the high stirrups showed below; his face was shadowed and invisible.”

Like them a lot. Better with ’non-hunter’.

Yet ANOTHER delay before we move on to the twilight Nazzies. Aren’t I evil? No, seriously, I think these form a nice bridge between the Riders and the twilight Nazgûl. You’ll see what I mean...enjoy!
•Sword of Minas Morgul, Dark Rider’s Blade
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +2
Bearer must be Úlairë Lemenya or a hunter Nazgûl.
If bearer is Úlairë Lemenya, he is damage +1.
Skirmish: Each time bearer wins a skirmish, you may exert him to discard a card borne by a companion in that skirmish.
Anyone have a good lore suggestion for this one? I’m stuck. Look at the original to get an idea of the scene where we really see this blade. for any lore suggestion I go with!
Blade of Steel
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +1
Bearer must be a Nazgûl.
While skirmishing a character bearing a condition or possession, bearer is strength +1 (and fierce until the regroup phase).
“Swords were naked in their pale hands....”
Morgul Blade, Weapon of Black Sorcery
Possession • Hand Weapon
Resistance -1
Plays on a Nazgûl.
If bearer is a Nazgûl, bearer is strength +1 (or +2 if a twilight Nazgûl).
This weapon may be borne in addition to 1 other hand weapon.
Response: If bearer is a Nazgûl and he wins a skirmish, exert bearer to transfer this possession to a companion in that skirmish.
“‘...both the knife and the hand that held it glowed with a pale light.’” |

Ouch! I would drop damage +1. For the lore, I’d go with "...in their haggard hands were swords of steel."

I would make it until end of turn, rather than until the end of the game. for the sweet cards!  |

Really? I thought it was pretty comparable to the original, personally.
What if I reversed it so that only Lemenya gets the damage bonus, but ANY bearer can use the ability? |
