Dáin’s DC Duos #111
Okay, so now we have all these Wargs running around. What do we do with them?
This is where the Wargy fun begins.  Enjoy!
 •Great Grey Wolf, Warg Chieftain
Minion • Warg
Strength: 10
Vitality: 3
Site: 4
Tracker. Fierce.
To play, spot a Warg. Great Grey Wolf may not bear possessions.
Each Warg and tracker gains hunter 1 (or hunter 2 if in a fierce skirmish).
Skirmish: Exert Great Grey Wolf and another Warg (or exert Great Grey Wolf twice) to move a card in the Free Peoples player’s support area to its owner’s discard pile.
“He spoke to them in the dreadful language of the Wargs. Gandalf understood it. Bilbo did not, but it sounded terrible to him, and as if all their talk was about cruel and wicked things, as it was.”
Why the strange wording of his skirmish ability, you ask? Think about it a second. Obviously it can (and often will) be used to discard a Free Peoples condition or support area possession. But how else could this be used? What new concept in my sets might tie into this?  to the first person that hits it on the head. 
 Maddened and Angry
Condition • Support Area
To play, exert a Warg.
Each time a Warg is exerted or wounded by a Free Peoples event, condition, or special ability, you may remove to make that Warg enduring until the end of the turn.
Regroup: Discard this condition to heal each Warg (or heal a Warg three times).
“...they were leaping and howling round the trunks, and cursing the dwarves in their horrible language, with their tongues hanging out, and their eyes shining as red and fierce as the flames.” |

Correct! It gets the minions back in a round-about way. Now you have to work on getting them back from your discard pile, but at least they’re back on your side of the table again.
As promised, a shiny new for SoP!

Really? Hmmm. Any suggestions? I did "chief" because he’s also called "grey chief" and "chief wolf" in The Hobbit. The "of the Pack" just seemed to fit, though apparently that may have just been me.  |

I ended up going with something very close to that. Thanks!
Dáin’s DC Duos #112
Remember how Hunting Warg had the ability "when you play this minion, you may exert it to take a search card into hand from your draw deck"? There’s a very good reason for that. Obviously, it works well with existing search cards (bet you forgot those even existed!) like Hide and Seek, Relentless, and especially Goblin Domain. But unlike Decipher, I’m not finished with the search keyword just yet.... Enjoy!
 Howling At The Moon
Event • Skirmish
Search.
Make a Warg or mounted Orc strength +1 for each Warg minion you can spot (limit +6).
“All of a sudden they heard a howl away down hill, a long shuddering howl. It was answered by another away to the right and a good deal nearer to them; then by another not far away to the left.”
Keen Smell
Condition • Support Area
Search. Toil 1. To play, spot a minion.
Response: If the Ring-bearer puts on The One Ring, exert a Warg to choose one: wound the Ring-bearer; or make the Ring-bearer take off The One Ring until the regroup phase.
Response: If a stealth card is played, spot a Warg and discard this condition to cancel all effects of that card and discard it.
“Even magic rings are not much use against wolves - especially against the evil packs that lived under the shadow of the goblin-infested mountains, over the Edge of the Wild on the borders of the unknown.” |
