Cw0rk: Hope you are doing well; it's been a long time.
I have been playing the Hobbit/Gimli Free Peoples a few times with this shadow and enjoy it quite a bit. I have run into a few problems along the way (lack of condition discard is the deck's biggest weakness) but getting Aragorn and Gimli pumped up enough to beat most of what you run into is very satisfying.
I have maxed out at six sites taken with the shadow, which means a free
Uruk-Hai Horde, but naturally that isn't to be expected in all games.
Sorry all for reviving long-dead topics (over eight years!) but I have been using this deck recently and wanted to encourage a few new ideas that aren't the normal Mono-Rohan or Mono-Ring-Bound Rangers for Towers Block.
