Oh and discard the nasty constantly threatening of course, haha. At the tourny I played my own Preparations deck and with an exhausted Gimli he played that most un used event in lotr: Beauty is Fading....twice, hahaha.

You talking about Henk! Well we tested the wednessday before the tournament and then he had just copied some decks and was not satisfied by it. I was also suprised that he did put that one in. But hey why not. It's quite good actually :)

False. Beauty Is Fading is terrible. I would rather have one or two minions.

Well, it is not in most cases. Most Nazguls decks use the pool for minions, not for events. Could be cool though to play a deck that discards both possessions and conditions just to launch that event and to discard companions, haha.

Btw, good to see you around JW, I hope you will recover fully in not a too long amount of time!

What do you think in combo with Enduring Nazgul?


Thx Heije, well I feel good. I'm only on fluent food, which is horrible and I can't eat much with such gastronomic band.

I have played against Kralik's deck once. With Ents and Radagast I moved from site 1 - 4 with little resistance. He then declared game with no hope of catching me because constantly threatening was not in play and no shadow cards were left in his deck.
I think that is the easiest way to beat this deck, not worry about his freeps and try to win by getting to site 9 first.
Maybe not using beneath the mountains until constantly threatening is in hand would prevent any potential 1-4 moves.

...And I take a crushing defeat vs. Ents + Radagast at site 1... :p

Called the game after my opponent's first turn: end at site 4 and me without any Shadow conditions or cards left.

:mrgreen:

If you got defeated by ents, let me suggest you to add The Number must be few.

You cant discard your deck with BtM unless you a dwarf weapon in your discard pile to play.  There has to be a valid target when the cost of the action is payed.

You are wrong. You can discard your entire deck with BTM even if you have no dwarven weapons in your deck at all.

MuadDib is right, and this has been debated many times before. You can perform an action as far as you can. You have to meet the requirements, and by discarding 3 cards you do.

I wonder if you could make a deck that combos Beauty is Fading with Saruman's Power and Isengard Smith/Ulaire Cantea, FTW, and maybe some copies of Stampeded with a [Raider] condition for possessions played in the Fellowship phase. Basically, use Isengard Smith in Regroup, then use Stampeded/Cantea if possessions are played in the Fellowship phase, then Saruman's Power in Shadow and multiple copies of Beauty is Fading in Maneuver to take out their key companions (especially since many decks have only one copy of key companions and no way to get them back). Maybe throw in some Hollowing of Isengard/ Winged and Ominous to save up for more Beauty is Fading. Maybe also use News of Mordor because you can.
