Sam, Bearer of Great Need bearing The Answer to All Riddles
Frodo, Frenzied Fighter
Bilbo, Aged Ring-bearer
34 cards
Companions: (2)
Pippin, Hobbit of Some Intelligence (2)
Allies (2)
Tom Bombadil, The Master (2)
Conditions (7)
Birthday Present (2)
Home and Hearth (4)
Little Golden Flower
Events (16) (remeber all these events I can play and insane amount of times once one gets in my discard pile. I’ve played 12 No Visitors in one game. If you have Birthday Present and Daddy Twofoot you can get get a Make Haste, 2 No Visitors and a Sworn Companion for no cost if you play Pippin next with 4 Home and Hearth.
No Visitors (4)
Make Haste (3)
Narrow Escape (3)
Unharmed
Community Living (2)
Slunk Out of Sight
Sworn Companion (2)
Possessions/Artifacts: (4)
•Mithril-coat, Dwarf-mail
Hobbit Sword (2)
Salt from the Shire
Followers: (3)
•Daddy Twofoot, Next-door Neighbor
•The Gaffer, Master Gardener
•Frodo Gamgee, Son of Samwise
This deck functions through cancelling ALL our hobbits skrimishes and then discarding all the minions in the regroup phase. We cancel our skrimishes in 2 ways
1. No Visitors
2. Tom Bombadil, The Master
Both of these cards have a lot of a sacrifice. Each costs some twilight, and No Visitors requires a follower. First we’ll look at No Visitors. For our 3 followers we have the most importnat, Daddy Twofoot, Next-door Neighbor, who is key in grabbing No Visitors itself. The other followers don’t do that much other then add burdens and get transfered for No Visitors.
Then once that happens we have to discard all their minions. We do this with Sam, Make Haste, and Narrow Escape
ABUSE Birthday Present. You should add around 5 burdens every turn with your followers, Birthday present and Daddy Twofoot. You remove these through the amazing Pippin Engine (5 burdens each time) and Bilbo can remove three burdens each turn as well. Unharmed is in their for wounding decks.
Overwhelming Sam is rather difficult. He has 5 strength with a hobbit sword and then 7 with his Ring. By playing COmmunity Living and adding two burdens for Frodo Gamgee (who really shouldnt be used too much), will give him 10, and Daddy Twofoot can get you Sworn Companion.
If you do run into Anduin Confluence simply play Tom Bombadil again.
You probably will deck out, but its fine you can play this deck from the discard pile. |

At the end you mean Unharmed, not Helpless.
I like this idea, except for the new rule about cancelling skirmishes with the ringbearer. What was it exactly?
Do you think the Farmer and the Brewer might be too much, burden-wise? Especially if you’re not fighting with them too much. I might swap them for somthing like Slunk Out of Sight, which works well with Mithril-coat Dwarf-mail, as it prevents minions from gaining the fierce back. |

you are going to need 4 make haste... otherwise looks fine. Oh wait sam cannot have his skirmish canceled, so maybe add a pump or 2 for him. Sworn companion maybe? |

thanks everyone a lot. Ya i’ll have to see what i can do about Sam’s skrimish. Can his skrimish be replaced by Frodo or no? Because that isnt cancelling its just replacing? |
