As a reminder, this is part of the second of 3 sets:
H1 - The Hobbit (300 cards, 110C 100U 90R)
H2 - The Battle of the Five Armies (200 cards, 70C 70U 60R)
H3 - The White Council (200 cards, 70C 70U 60R)

And it’s more or less complete, I just need the approval of the talented DCers of the cobracards forum!

Here is a (very brief) summary of the block mechanics featured in the first set:

Terror X (Each time this character is assigned to skirmish an opponent’s character, they may make that opponent exert X of their characters.)

Winged (This character can only take 1 wound per phase, regardless of its source.)

Locked - (A card that is Locked has blank game text, unless it is Unlocked. An ability or keyword that is Locked is nonexistent unless it is Unlocked.)

Unlocked - (A card can only be Unlocked if a card allows it to be. A card with no Locked text cannot be Unlocked.)

A seriously detailed description of the last two can be found at this link: http://lotrtcgdb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=4434 (below the Dwarven cards)

There are also a couple more that feature in this set that weren’t in the last, but I’ll get onto them later.

Here’s the culture break down, and clicking on finished cultures will take you to their card lists.

I agree with SoP: make it just one Gandalf possession. I would keep his cost at 3, but would recommend making him spot an Elf to play and get the reduction if you can spot a Gandalf Man.

I’d raise his cost to 5 or lower his vitality to 4. But a good card otherwise.

Sorry, he was meant to have 4 vitality in the first place - it was just me being careless.

Quality Thumbs Up Though i am amused at the thought of the implications of the gameplay. Instead of making them an archer and shooting arrows, you discard the bow to exert a minion. I have a vision of elves running upto a load of orcs and throwing their longbows in their faces Ha! Take that!/b]

Again, good with your other stuff. The ability to play artifacts back would see a decent amount of play with current rings and Aiglos.

To make it a whole ton better and more usable, maybe make it fellowship or regroup?
