As the physical cards are getting harder to find these days, I gathered a large physical collection of common and nostalgic decks to play with family and friends as a pre-built game. I'm posting these decks as a reference and for feedback/discussion to improve on them. The decks are split into free peoples and shadow sides, all interchangeable at 35 cards each. There are some obvious drawbacks in doing it this way, but it is 100% worth it to allow mixing/matching and keeping each game unique and interesting. The idea is to make thematic and fun strategies while maintaining a balance. These are built with physical cards, so any in the $100+ range are not always going to make it in for their high costs and to maintain balance among the decks. I include cards from the Expanded format and rules, but some decks might also fit into other formats. This is one of those decks:
[Gondor] Gondor Knights - Free Peoples (Expanded)
Typical Knight wounding deck fitted for 35 cards.
Starting:
The One Ring, The Ring of Rings
Isildur, Bearer of Heirlooms
Alcarin, Warrior of Lamedon
Turgon, Man of Belfalas
Companions:
Faramir, Defender of Osgiliath x2
Aragorn, Captain of Gondor
Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth
Ingold
Boromir, Hero of Osgiliath
Garrison of Gondor
Possessions:
Banner of Westernesse x4
Gondor Bow x3
Knight's Mount x2
Events:
Men of Numenor x2
Conditions:
Citadel of the Stars x2
Stone Tower x2
Fourth Level x4
Fifth Level x2
Sixth Level x4
Garrison of Osgiliath
One card I don't have that may help is Elendil, High-King of Gondor, but it isn't essential.
I would love to hear any feedback/suggestions.
