I figured it didn’t matter hugely. In future we won’t because all the votes will be dealt with before moving onto the next round.
Oh and received half, so looking good!

No I’m waiting for only 2, LK and (surprise surprise ) DI!
A huge thank you to those who have already submitted. I’ll wait not too much longer for those 2 potential entries.

Like last time we’ll be voting for our favourite 3 (in order), obviously not voting for yourself.
ALL of those twelve above must vote, and I will be pestering those who don’t.
A tentative deadline will be Thursday 14th. I say tentative because it might be too short, but I’m hoping it won’t be. |

Nice, but it would have to be in exactly the right deck, one running Sense of Obligation, Blade Tip and Black Breath, and the chance of comboing all of those on are pretty slim b/c the guy will either die from Blade Tip or the conditions will get trashed, meaning that I see this thing getting TOPS 2 burdens.

Heh. Weak for the cost.

Pretty wordy. I think its also fairly complex. And twilight Nazzies gaining fierce isn’t something they usually do, but IDK if its balanced or not.
#4
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event - Regroup
Toil 2.
Spot a Nazgul and discard a condition to add two burdens. The Free Peoples player may wound the Ringbearer twice to prevent this.
’Neath sea the land sinketh, / the sun dimmeth, / from the heavens fall / the fair bright stars....
1 V 202
Toil’s not really a FotR keyword. As is, not enough bang for the buck.
Thran’s Note: The lore of this one is apparently from the Old Norse poem Voluspa and referring to Ragnarok. Just thought you might like to know!
That would probably be AD, then, because he’s obsessed with anything Norse.
#5
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event
Toil 1.
Maneuver: Exert a Nazgul to reveal a card at random from the Free Peoples player’s hand. You may discard a card of the same type from play (and add a burden if you revealed a Shadow card).
"’...the Three will fail, and many beautiful things will fade and be forgotten.
1 V 202
An uber-crummy catapult that only works once. I don’t like it.
#6
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event
To play, exert a Nazgul.
Skirmish: The Free Peoples player may discard any number of Free Peoples conditions or Free Peoples possessions. Then make each companion (except the Ring-bearer) strength -1 for each card they bear until the regroup phase.
"’...the Three will fail, and many fair things will fade and be forgotten.’"
1 V 205
I love it. That’s awesome. I woulda worded it differently, though.
Thran’s Note: The principle of this card I’m told is to specifically target companions bearing artifacts (to fit in with the lore) and Shadow cards (to fit into strategies).
#7
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event
Maneuver: Exert a minion to make the Ring-bearer wear The One Ring until the regroup phase. The free peoples player may add 2 burden to prevent this.
"...The Three will fail, and many fair things will fade away and be forgotten."
1 V 202
Useless. Completely useless.
#8
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event
Toil 2.
Maneuver: Spot a Nazgul to discard a Free Peoples card (except a companion) with twilight cost X or less, where X is the number of burdens you can spot. Then, if no minions were exerted to play this event, you may add a burden.
"’...the Three will fail, and many fair things will fade and be forgotten.’"
1 V 202
Like it, but still, toil is not a FotR keyword.
#9
Beauty is Fading (V)
Event
Maneuver: Spot a Nazgul and an exhausted unbound companion to make that companion resistance 0 until the regroup phase.
"’...the Three will fail, and many fair things will fade and be forgotten.’"
1 V 202
ARGH! FotR didn’t have unbound comps resistance.
#10
Beauty Is Fading (V)
Event
Toil 2.
To play, spot a Nazgul.
Maneuver: Spot a condition to discard that condition. Spot an condition to add a burden. Spot a condition to exert a companion.
"... the Three with fail, and many fair things will fade and be forgotten."
1 V 202
So, basically shotgun at anything that runs more that one of the cultures. I like it, but a little weak. Toil 2 I guess helps, but its not FotR...
#11
Beauty Is Fading
Event
Maneuver: Exert a Nazgûl (or spot a mounted or twilight Nazgûl) to discard a companion or ally. The Free Peoples player may discard 2 Free Peoples cards from play to prevent this.

Awesome. I love it.

Hasn’t this been done before already?

By the way, NB, I specifically said in the rules for this round that these cards could work for any Nazgul strategy - so Toil and resistance are entirely fair game.
for being so prompt!

1] #1 - I like how this encourages a whole deck to be built around it and it fits the flavour well.
2] #12 - A very powerful effect as a 5 cost event should have. I think it should probably require the Nazgul to exert as a cost but again, a whole deck could be built around this.
3] #8 - I liked the engine that the card has in itself, it can give you the burdens to fuel a more powerful event later in the game. It was just a little too complicated for me and might not be effective enough in play to justify the twilight cost.
Overall, I thought the cards submitted were really good and some interesting takes on the theme. Good work!
