--- description ---
A deck designed to take advantage of all three of Faramir’s abilities.
--- end description ---
Starting Stuff:
Frodo, Hope of Free Peoples w/ The One Ring, The Ring of Doom
Faramir, Wizard’s Pupil
Pippin, Sworn to Service
Other Companions:
Theoden, Ednew
Eomer, Eored Captain x3
Haleth, Son of Hama
Gandalf, The White Wizard x4
Possessions/Artifacts:
Hobbit Sword x2
Ithilien Blade
Ranger’s Cloak
Shadowfax, Greatest of the Mearas
Gandalf’s Staff, Focus of Power
Coif
Herugrim, Sword of the Mark
Eomer’s Spear
Rider’s Mount x3
Rider’s Spear
Conditions:
Help in Doubt and Need
G for Grand x4
Hearken to Me
Followers:
Gwaihir, The Windlord
Faramir’s Company
Pallando, Far-Travelling One
Radagast, Tender of Beasts
Events:
Simbelmyne x4
38 cards, but could work. Okay. Two followers add threats for pippin, if you get more than 3, just use Frodo to remove some. The three  companions are there for Theoden to spot. If you pull Eomer, you can spot him for Simbelmyne, plays your other companions. Use the possessions to beef up your companions. G for Grand is great with theoden, and pumps everyone else. Manage burdens with Shadowfax, plus, it’s a mount for Haleth. HiDaN is obvious. You have three companions to pump Faramir, and he can pump them. Then, use Faramir’s ability and take up more of the guys’ vitality to get Faramir back to work. Faramir’s company heals anyone who needs it (esp. with HiDaN around). Pallando and Alatar are for strength, but they also add  for Gandalf and His staff. The stable master makes theoden’s job easier. So, with full pumps, here’s your companions’ strengths:
Frodo: 9, plus the Ring of Doom if need be.
Faramir: 13
Pippin: 12
Theoden: 15
Eomer: 15
Haleth: 13
Gandalf: 17, counting on Pallando and twilight.
Plus Alatar, Gwaihir, and the Stable Master, wherever. |

| I would replace alatar for radagast since you run 4 g for grand, so you would be insured to have the resistance you need on your key companions. Also, Shadowfax, greatest of the mearas is a mount (haleth), could be great to replace glamdring with it. Plus, you can add threats to increase pippin’s strenght. |

Taking out a copy of Simbelmyne for The Red Arrow might not be a terrible idea.
And yes, you simply HAVE to find a way to get Hearken To Me in there. Cut a copy of Eomer to squeeze it in if you have to.
I’ve always wondered what a  / deck would be like....  |

Check out Lasting Alliances, The Road Ahead, and Ages of Middle-earth, three of my five dream card sets that make up Wars of the Ring. Oh, and I have a trade list now!
Also, if you're into DCs or RPGs (or even if you're not!), check out Realms of Middle-earth, the sequel to CG's "DC Adventure", Realms of the North! |

| Hearken To Me is basically a must. +4 strength, +2 vitality when that and Herugrim are on Theoden. Couple that with 4x G for Grand...and that’s 15 strength, and 5 vitality!! |

Well.. the Red Arrow only plays companions from hand, so I’ll take a pass. And I’d rather not drop Eeomer, he’s the only way to play Simbelmyne. |
