good topic. and good overview of cards, but isn’t site manipulation any sort of messing with sites? like laying the next one, replacing the current one, traveled leader changing any in current region.

i don’t know if a decklist really fits into this article. not every article needs a decklist.

the biggest problem i have with this article is that you say "As you can see, Sites do put a whole new dimension on the LOTR cards. Just remember, whatever build your are working with, site manipulation can be an option if your cards really rely around them."

this is an excellent conclusion, but in the beginning, you don’t convince the reader of how important they are before you start looking at the cards. i think site manipulation is incredibly powerful in a subtle way, it can really mess up decks that rely on certain sites, but your goal is not to appeal to people who already think site manipulation is important, but rather, your goal is to convince every reader that it is important, and show them ways to use it. you did a good job showing, by reviewing each card, but it really isn’t convincing.

overall, good article, and a 4 from macheteman.

EDIT: Okay, I read through it. Anduril is an artifact, not a possession. Also, it plays sites 3 and 6, the sanctuaries. Also, a Shadow section mentioning Nelya and some other cards like that would be nice.


What do you mean by playing sites 3 and 6? It says to play the Fellowship’s site 2 and 5. Please tell me what you mean.

Switching is called replacing a site. I am discussing site Manipulation.

Actually, Site Manipulation includes all forms of playing sites and replacing sites on the adventure path, so card like Nelya ought to be included in this article.

Right now the article looks like a 3, but with proper editing (Nelya MUST be included!) it could jump up to a 4 or 5.

P.S. Oh, and Anduril, Flame of the West plays sites 3 & 6. It says that if you are at any site 2 or 5, play the next site (which would be site 3 if you are at site 2, and site 6 if you are at site 5).
