For the record i dislike the idea intensely but that shouldnt come as as a surprise to you Thran as you know youre always doing new crazy things Decipher wouldnt have done in a million years, and im sorry but im a Decipher format fan! They knew what worked and was good which is why theyd never attempt this sort of thing.

Lesser Ring /
Artifact • Ring
Str: +1
Res: -1
Bearer must be a unique character.

Dain’s right better for shadow useless for elves.

Ring of Power /
Artifact • Ring
Str: +1
Res: -2
To play, spot a or card.
Bearer must be a unique character.
Each time bearer is about to take a wound in a skirmish, his or her owner may discard the top 3 cards of their draw deck to prevent that wound.

Ditto comment above but ability is fine if a little punishing, i wouldnt opt for this ring in a deck.

• The Master Ring
Artifact • Ring
Legendary.
To play, spot 2 cards.
Plays to your support area.
Assignment: Assign a character (except the Ring-bearer) bearing a ring to another character (except the Ring-bearer). The Free Peoples player may add a burden to prevent this and assign those characters.
Response: If the Ring-bearer puts on The One Ring, discard this artifact to add a burden.

Crazy! And if you cant discard artifacts youre knackered! Shouod at least exert the shadow character to assign it.

Another controversial batch. Would you rather me criticise endlessly or not review them Thran? I dont mind which!

See, this is why I don’t go too nuts with new strategies and such in my sets.

And thats why i dont moan at your cards like do do Thran’s!

"K.I.S.S." is often the best strategy.

And thats why i dont moan at your cards like do do Thran’s!

The K.I.S.S. principle? Look it up on Google, lem0n.

Thran, you’re going to make poor lem0n’s head explode. Juicy bits everywhere....

While we appear to be on this little detour into Shadow, here’s a probably less weird card, though it does support the rings above:

• Sauron, The Deceiver
Minion • Maia
Str: 8
Vit: 4
Sit: 2
Enduring 1.
When you play Sauron, you may play a ring from your draw deck.
While in region 1 and 2, Sauron cannot be assigned to a skirmish.
Each companion bearing a ring is strength -2 and cannot be assigned to Sauron.

Thranduil

Erm if this wasnt sauron he’s a cool minion but 8 strength for sauron? How weak was he before he forged the one ring? Lesser than an morgul skirmisher? Seriously?

Whats with the region thing?
