The fellowship is regular Wraiths... feel free to give me tips.
Even if it's not super efficient, the shadow is really fun to play with. From site 1 to 3, your goal is to try to surprise your opponent with your strong minions and try to kill some companions or even win the game (it happened once). You also want to have Saruman and as many Whispers in the dark ready as possible before site 3. From site 4 to 6, you want to do as many wounds and exertions as possible using Voice of the Desert with minions and your whispers in the dark. From site 7 to 9, you play some minions and then exert them to play Sauron who is gonna coast -3 for each exertions.

For the shadow, add a pavise or two, that plus mouth plus wisper=win.

Maybe it is just me, but I prefer starting two copies of Dead Man of Dunharrow and packing three or four Aragorn, Driven By Need. Why no Shadow Host?
Elessar's Edict is a lifesaver if your Swept Away gets discarded. And why not Anduril, Sword that was Broken and Aragorn's Bow, Ranger's Longbow?

I never liked the high requirements to play Shadow Host. Elessar's Edict looks good but I'll try to play without it for now.
+1 *Anduril, Sword that was Broken
+1 Aragorn's Bow, Ranger's Longbow
-1 *Anduril, Flame of the West
-1 Sapling of the white tree
