I’ve started on the culture.
A new keyword, Bloodlust X: While skirmishing a wounded character, this character is Strength +X.
Swarthy Uruk
Minion • Uruk-hai
Strength: 6

Site Number: 5
Bloodlust 2.
Skirmish: Exert this minion to exert a companion it is skirmishing.
LG C 23

Vitality: 2
Site Number: 5
Bloodlust 2. Damage +1.
LG U 24
•Saruman’s Wrath
Condition • Support Area
While in region 1, each minion’s twilight cost is -1.
While in region 2, each minion gains bloodlust 1.
While in region 3, each minion is strength +1.

Muster.
Maneuver: Exert Saruman and remove a threat to reveal the top card of an opponents draw deck, add [X] where X equals the twilight cost of the card revealed. The Free Peoples player may exert 2 companions to prevent this.

A couple of thoughts on the keyword:
1] I like the idea, but not the name - infuriated just sounds like they being annoyed. How about Berserk? Bloodlust? Bloodthirst?
2] It is always worth making keywords that a) scale, and b) can be used with FP and Shadow cards. What I therefore suggest is something more like:
Bloodlust X: While skirmishing a wounded character, this character is Strength +X.
3] Or you could even give different bonuses (though this is something that LotR doesn’t usually do), make more like a callout keyword from Star Trek or Magic:
Bloodlust - Strength +X: While skirmishing a wounded character, this character is Strength +X.
Bloodlust - Damage +1
Bloodlust - Cannot take wounds
etc.
Hope that helps,
Anvar |

Anvar has some good ideas. I like your idea, and the cards look pretty good, but I’ll wait and see if you make any changes before reviewing. |

Anvar’s got the right idea, but I’d be tempted to use this keyword like the old beserker mechanic, something like ’for each wound in this skirmish, this character is strength +X’ or ’for each wound on each character they are skirmsihing’ if you don’t want to count wounds on themselves. Nevertheless, it has a nice Uruk feel to it.
Swarthy Uruk
Minion • Uruk-hai
Strength: 6
Vitality: 2
Site Number: 5
Bloodlust 2.
Skirmish: Exert this minion to exert a companion it is skirmishing.
LG C 23
Nice and simple. Would be even funnier with my beserker suggestion above.
Champion Uruk
Minion • Uruk-hai
Strength: 9
Vitality: 2
Site Number: 5
Bloodlust 2. Damage +1.
LG U 24
Simple and solid, but I’d be tempted to reduce his strength to 8.
•Saruman’s Wrath
Condition • Support Area
While in region 1, each minion’s twilight cost is -1.
While in region 2, each minion is strength +1.
While in region 3, each minion is damage +1.
LG U 25
In region 3 this card is unbelievable! Fine the rest of the time, but needs toning down (maybe it should add bloodlust instead?).
War Chant
Event • Skirmish
Make an minion strength +2 (or +3 if it has bloodlust).
LG C 26
I’d be tempted to make this basically an alternate reprint of violent hurl.
•Lurtz, Uruk Leader
Minion • Uruk-hai
Strength: 13
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 5
Bloodlust 3. Damage +1.
At the start of the maneuver phase, you may spot an minion to make that minion gain bloodlust 1 until the regroup phase.
LG R 27
Maybe you should say ’another minion’, otherwise he may as well have bloodlust 4.
•Saruman, Cast from the Council
Minion • Wizard
Strength: 8
Vitality: 4
Site Number: 4
Muster.
Maneuver: Exert Saruman to reveal the top card of an opponents draw deck, add X where X equals the twilight cost of the card revealed. The Free Peoples player may exert 2 companions to prevent this.
LG R 28
When you say X, do you mean twilight? If so, I need a good reason to be adding twilight in the maneuver phase to use this guy.
Uruk Blade
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +2
Bearer must be an Uruk-hai.
Bearer gains muster.
LG C 29
Very uruk-hai.
Uruk Armor
Possession • Armor
Regroup: Discard this possession to draw a card and reinforce an token.
LG U 30
This one needs a bearer. Good, but for the shadow player to draw a card in the regroup phase is pretty useless given that they reconcile every site.
Nice stuff.

Yep, that works.

I like how his ability helps his bloodlust. Good stuff.

Okay, though you could work bloodlust in there instead of what you currently have for either region 2 or region 3.

I think it might be cooler if you did that ability when he wins a skirmish. Then you have some nice incentive to try and make him fierce, too. Okay as is, though.

I like the subtitle! The first X needs to be in ()s or []s, but otherwise this is a great card.

Hmmm. Perhaps make it cost , since mass muster like that could get out of hand.

I think it should have a stat boost or ability of some kind so you aren’t so tempted to discard it.
Actually, scratch that. It’s in regroup, so I guess it works as is. Nice.
Good batch! |

It can help if you have some high costing skirmish events to use. Or you can stick it in a deck that has high costing skirmish events such as Red Wrath or Whirling Strike. |

I accept that, but I was wondering if you had any DCs that use it. Though now you’ve pointed out that he isn’t cultural specific, it makes him a lot better!
