Thanks for the reviews!
Stroke of Doom
Event • Skirmish
If you have initiative, choose one: make a minion strength +3; make a minion intimidating; make a minion fierce until the regroup phase.
Umbar Sailor
Minion • Man
Strength: 6
Vitality: 2
Site Number: 4
Hunter 1.
While this minion is in a fierce skirmish, he is strength +4 and damage +1.
•Corsair Dromund
Possession • Support Area
Toil 1. To play, spot a minion.
When you play this possession, you may add a token here for each river site on the adventure path.
Regroup: If you have initiative, remove 4 tokens from here or discard this possession to make the move limit -1.
A Dromond is apparently a fast-sailing ship, according to dictionary.com. Tolkien spells it as ’dromund’ though.

This would be a great splash minion for a swarm deck. Good job!

I would raise the cost to , drop the minion exertions, and make it toil 1. |

I think you can safely drop "of the following". Also, I’m tempted to recommend increasing the cost to , though that may not be needed. It’s one of those borderline things. It’s probably okay at .
Other than that, very nice! This would be a staple of decks.

Yowch! Maybe lower his initial strength to 5.

Personally, I’d go wth Tolkien’s spelling. There’s a few things he does that with, and I tend to use his spelling. That’s just a personal preference thing, though.
As for the card, very good. The culture could use some old-school ships. Looks well-balanced to me. |

I would have kept his initial strength at 6, to be honest.

Just a minor thing, but I’d lower his strength to 7. Otherwise he’s got great text AND is a beast with fierce and a potential 9 strength.

I love how you’re using initiative here. I’d love to see a battle between these corsairs and your rangers. |

I’ll do the next best thing and raise his hunter bonus instead. That way he’s not quite as strong as you want him to be, but not quite as weak as Dain suggested.

Awesome. I love the compromise between his strength and his hunter bonus.
