Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you. Razz

To play spot 3 elves(or 2 elves if one of those elves is Haldir). While at any site 5 this companion is strength plus 2. Remove an token from your condition to exert a minion Haldir’s Army is skirmishing.

Needs to be unique. I think you should drop either the strength bonus, or the exerting ability (which needs a phase, anyways).

Also, you could probably just say ’To play, spot 3 Elves (or Haldir)."

Each elf gains archer. Discard this condition at the beginning of the regroup phase.

Yikes, no. Also, the Helms Deep Elves in the TCG don’t usually add to the archery total.

The playing requirement isn’t a requirement... change it to ’When you play this condition, you may spot an Elf to add up to 3 Elven

tokens here.’

Also, it needs to have a twilight cost of 2, 3, or 4. That’s a powerful ability.

Nice.

Quote:

Elven Water Elven

vitality plus 1
Condition
To play spot 2 elves. Bearer must be a companion. Limit one per bearer

I think I reviewed this somewhere else... anyways, I don’t like the idea of water adding vitality.

Quote:

Swift Reload Elven

Event Archery
Spot an Elf to play a ranged weapon from your discard pile. (Or if you can spot Legolas make the fellowship archery total plus 1).

I would drop the cost to 0, and drop the second ability.

Quote:

Knife work Elven

Make an elf bearing a hand weapon strength+2 (or strength+3 an damage +1 if that companion is Legolas).

Cool card. Maybe increase the cost to 1.

Quote:

Counsel of War Elven

Event Fellowship
Spot Galadriel to play an elf companion from your draw deck.

Nice, although a cost of 2 would balance it out nicely.

Quote:

Aragorn, Commander of Elves• Gondor

Companion•man
strength 8
vitality 4
resistance 6
damage +1
To play spot an elf or exert a companion. Aragorn is strength plus one for each of the following you can spot: Legolas, Arwen, Haldir. At the start of each skirmish involving Aragorn you may exert a minion an Elf is skirmishing

A few quibbles...

1: The uniqueness dot goes before the name, not afterwards.
2: Why the low resistance? I’d increase it to 8.
3: The spotting requirement is odd, since you’d only really want to use him in an Elven

deck.
4: With that strength bonus ability, you could drop his strength to 7 (and you should probably also drop the damage bonus)
5: The exerting ability wouldn’t work, since a minion technically isn’t skirmishing a companion except during that companion’s skirmish. You could change it to ’At the start of each skirmish involving Aragorn, you may exert a minion assigned to skirmish an Elf.’

Hope this helps!

Good point. You could keep it at 1 twilight then.

Nice. Needs a class though - otherwise, you can have 4 of these on a companion, which would be way too good on a Ring-bearer.

I see you didn’t take much of my advice here - his resistance is still low, he has an un-needed spotting requirement, and his exerting ability doesn’t work. Oh well.
