Wow!!!
This card is rather like Aragorn’s Bow, but instead of exerting you have to discard 2 cards from hand. That’s not so bad of a cost, and this could be put in an Elvents deck so that you have some defense against minions that need their vitality in the skirmish phase.
Oh, and this card combos perfectly with Arwen’s Dagger. Decipher made a cool, balanced combo for once!

Cool card! AC is right; this works well in an Elvents deck. The pic is neat, too, although I know Arwen doesn’t have gray hair.
A 4 from me.
Edit: Wow. This means that there are only 3, maybe even just 2, cards in T&D. |

Seems decent enough. Good for elvents.
Is it just me, or does it seem like every card in this set is rare? |

I ran the numbers, and as of this posting we’ve seen 53 rares. Now, we were told that this set has 60 rares. So Decipher is just showing off the all-star cards of this set; I expect there to be plenty of mundane-ish commons and uncommons to even things up. |

3 cos its costs 2 is a ranged weapon so cant have an elven bow and it doesnt make you an archer. Nice game text and useful +1 str but nout to write home about. |

So Dwarves get Run Until Found and Gimli, and that’s it? Drat.
Anyway, this card is very solid, despite being totally ridiculous. (Arwen’s BOW?! Come on, Decipher. THINK, people!) I give it a 4. |

Actually, I think Arwen’s Bow was designed by Weta for the battle of Helm’s Deep. It makes sense that they would have, anyway.
Cool card, you can always use Dinendal, Mirkwood Archer to make Arwen an archer. |
