Respnse: If the Ring-Bearer is about to take a wound, He or She wears The One Ring untill the Regroup Phase. While wearing The One Ring, each time bearer is about to take a wound, add a burden instead.
"Sauron is coming for the Ring..."
Seems like a slightly improved version of Isildur's Bane. :x
(0) •Frodo, Bearing a Burden [Shire]
Companion • Hobbit
S: 4
V: 4
R: 10
Frodo is Resistance -1 for each wound on him.
"He's been through enough!" Sam shouted at Faramir.
Interesting... Maybe make him strength 5. :gp: for the idea.
[Dwarven]
[5] •Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Enduring Damage +2
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
Gimli is Resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
Definitely needs to be damage +1. The enduring seems cool. :)
[2] •Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate
Possession • Hand Wepon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is strength +2 and Damage +1
Gimli's Hate for Goblin's fuled his Fury.
Maybe strength +2 and defender +1? :-k
Nice start. :up: Let's see some more. :P
-
Okay. :gp:
-
Yeah, this is my first DC set. :up:
Awesome! I love seeing new DCing going on. Welcome to the madness! :mrgreen:
We'll start with the Ring. Please don't complain about the lore. I STINK at lore!
I imagine the other reviewers and I might be able to help out with that. ;)
•The One Ring, Pusued By All [Ring]
V: +1
R:+1
Respnse: If the Ring-Bearer is about to take a wound, He or She wears The One Ring untill the Regroup Phase. While wearing The One Ring, each time bearer is about to take a wound, add a burden instead.
"Sauron is coming for the Ring..."
Don't forget a rather important "r" in the title, and an "o" in "response".
This seems okay. Sort of like a revamped Isildur's Bane. I might prefer strength +1 intead of vitality +1, though.
(0) •Frodo, Bearing a Burden [Shire]
Companion • Hobbit
S: 4
V: 4
R: 10
Frodo is Resistance -1 for each wound on him.
"He's been through enough!" Sam shouted at Faramir.
That's pretty interesting, actually. Perhaps give him above-average resistance, like 11 or 12, and/or MAYBE 5 strength. Then I like him quite a bit.
[5] •Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Enduring Damage +2
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
Gimli is Resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
Um...not too sure about ths one. I'd prefer one of the following:
[2]•Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 7
Enduring. Damage +1.
Gimli is resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
...OR...
[2]•Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Damage +1.
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
Either way, I think damage +2 is just too much.
[2] •Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate
Possession • Hand Wepon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is strength +2 and Damage +1
Gimli's Hate for Goblin's fuled his Fury.
Fun, but unlikely to see much use since it's so specific. Perhaps something like this instead?
[2]•Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate [Dwarven]
Possession • Hand Weapon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli.
While you can spot an Orc, Gimli is strength +2.
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is damage +1.
Gimli's hate for goblins fueled his fury.
Even that is awfully specific, so perhaps give some other incentive for using it, like allowing any Dwarf to bear it or making it target more than one race/culture.
-
Yeah, this is my first DC set. :up:
Good. You have joined the DARK SIDE. You are now a SITH APPRENTICE. Collect $200.
•The One Ring, Pusued By All [Ring]
V: +1
R:+1
Respnse: If the Ring-Bearer is about to take a wound, He or She wears The One Ring untill the Regroup Phase. While wearing The One Ring, each time bearer is about to take a wound, add a burden instead.
"Sauron is coming for the Ring..."
"Pursued" is misspelled. So is "Response." And "Until." This is... basically Ring of Rings with different stat modifiers. Which I think could be a bit OP, personally. I'd prefer a set phase to wear the Ring - perhaps putting it on during the Fellowship phase (for no initial cost - or maybe twilight!) would add some flavor. But I know that Rings are some of the most difficult cards to design in a set.
(0) •Frodo, Bearing a Burden [Shire]
Companion • Hobbit
S: 4
V: 4
R: 10
Frodo is Resistance -1 for each wound on him.
"He's been through enough!" Sam shouted at Faramir.
The downside is too much for simply one more strength. Especially with Frodo, WFtJ out there.
[5] •Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Enduring Damage +2
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
Gimli is Resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
I'm not entirely sure what to say. A card like this hasn't exactly been made before - so I wouldn't know how to balance it.
Although a regular Gimli with conditional enduring wouldn't be OP. If you wanted to go for that.
[2] •Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate
Possession • Hand Wepon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is strength +2 and Damage +1
Gimli's Hate for Goblin's fuled his Fury.
Needs culture. And a period after Gimli. Unless you're making more [Moria] minions, it isn't that good. Maybe make it any orc.
Anyways, It's good to hear that you're starting a DC set. Practice makes perfect.
EDIT: Noticed Dain's response. He's got good suggestions. And if you're worried about lore, Dain did send me some Word files for the LotR trilogy - it's obviously a good place to pull lore from. Perhaps you could coerce him to get you some, eh?
-
Thanks guys :gp:, I also added new cards. :up:
-
[1] •Lone Dwarf
Condition
S: +1
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot 3 orcs, Gimli is Defender +1.
"...One Dwarf in Moria..."
I like this one. :up:
[1] Fury of Battle
Event • Manuver
Exert a Dwarf twice to make him Defender +2.
"ARGHH," Gimli cried.
Cool. This and the previous card makes a Frodo-Gimli strategy very viable. :P
(0) Fury Unmatched
Event • Skirmish
Make a Dwarf Damage +1 for each wound on him.
"No one could match a dwarf's fury"
Now that is a new idea. I don't see many of those... Neato. :up: :up:
-
It'd be helpful if you posted new cards in a separate post. Maybe update your first one as you go, but reviewing is easier if we just have the new stuff in it's own place. Anywho...
[1] •Lone Dwarf [Dwarven]
Condition
S: +1
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot 3 orcs, Gimli is Defender +1.
"...One Dwarf in Moria..."
Orcs needs to be capitalized. Period after Gimli. Defender doesn't need a cap.
Nifty card.
[1] Fury of Battle [Dwarven]
Event • Manuver
Exert a Dwarf twice to make him Defender +2.
"ARGHH," Gimli cried.
Defender, again, needs no cap. I might be more comfortable with just D+1, and perhaps a damage or strength bonus as well.
(0) Fury Unmatched [Dwarven]
Event • Skirmish
Make a Dwarf Damage +1 for each wound on him.
"No one could match a dwarf's fury"
Awesome.
-
with battle fury maybe exert twice to prevent all but one wound, make him defend +1, damage +1 and strength +3. kinda like down from the hills ro something
really? defender doesn't need a cap? coolio.

•The One Ring, Prusued By All [Ring]
V: +1
R:+1
Response: If the Ring-Bearer is about to take a wound, He or She wears The One Ring untill the Regroup Phase. While wearing The One Ring, each time bearer is about to take a wound, add a burden instead.
"Sauron is coming for the Ring..."
There's an ugly typo in the Ring's name. I also think it might be overpowered like #$&*@!, boosting resistance, vitality AND allowing to wear it at ANY time for the cost of a burden per wound (not even for wearing it)
(0) •Frodo, Bearing a Burden [Shire]
Companion • Hobbit
S: 5
V: 4
R: 10
Frodo is Resistance -1 for each wound on him.
"He's been through enough!" Sam shouted at Faramir.
Unless he has Ring-bearer on his game text or a ringed resistance, he can't bear The One Ring. Is this the real intention?
[5] •Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Enduring Damage +1
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
Gimli is Resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
I wouldn't say he's overpowered, really. It's fairly dangerous keeping him powerful, so I say he's actually a bit twilight-intensive right now. You could simply lose the strength bonus from minions and easily let him at [2], I mean, look at the drawback on Strider, it's not CLOSE to being as serious as the one on Gimli!
[2] •Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate [Dwarven]
Possession • Hand Wepon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is strength +2 and Defender +1
Gimli's Hate for Goblin's fuled his Fury.
Nice enough, IMO. I would definitely sideboard it (hint hint) in my decks!
[1] •Lone Dwarf [Dwarven]
Condition
S: +1
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot 3 orcs, Gimli is Defender +1.
"...One Dwarf in Moria..."
Kinda sucky, IMO, perhaps a vitality bonus to go with that enduring would be nice.
[1] Fury of Battle [Dwarven]
Event • Manuver
Exert a Dwarf twice to make him Defender +2.
"ARGHH," Gimli cried.
Dude, what's with the defender bonuses?!? I think this may be too powerful at its cost, specially since dwarves can fight 3-4 Minions AND win a fair share of times.
(0) Fury Unmatched [Dwarven]
Event • Skirmish
Make a Dwarf Damage +1 for each wound on him.
"No one could match a dwarf's fury"
I'd have you exhaust the companion for flavor, for making it even cooler and for balancing it at cost (0). Otherwise, it's way too cheap.
-
First Culture is done. :up:
-
[1] Competition [Dwarven]
Event • Skirmish
Exert a Dwarf to make him strength +1 for each Elf you can spot.
" ...But I myself am sitting pretty on fourty-three."
Now this card here, this is nice. I liked it.
[2] •Grimir, Wise Elder [Dwarven]
Follower
S: +1
R: +1
Aid- Add a Threat
Exert the companion this follower is attached on to take a [Dwarven] event into hand from your discard pile.
"The Dwarfs respected his wisdom."
Needs a timing on the ability.
[2] •Well-Prepared [Dwarven]
Condition • Support Area
Fellowship: Exert a Dwarf to play a [Dwarven] possesion on him from your draw deck. (Limit once per turn)
"We Dwarf's can never be taken by suprise," Gimli boasted.
Another nice card, loved it.
[1] •Natural Fortifications [Dwarven]
Condition • Support Area
While The Fellowship is at a Mountain Site, Each minion is strength -1.
"An orc is weakend after trying to reach a Dwarf on a Mountain."
Seems... weird. Might be nice enough, though, who knows.
-
Thanks FM :gp:. I also started Elvish culture.
-
[2] •Old Alliance [Elven]
Condition • Support Area
Exert an [Elven] companion and a [Rohan] companion to wound a minion.
"...An Alliance once existed between Elves and Men..."
Again, lacking a timing for it's usage. It might be too powerful, I think I'd either make it into a cheaper event or cap it at 1-2 uses per turn/phase.
[2] Naith Armor [Elven]
Possesion • Armor
V: +1
Bearer must be an Elf
Response: If a [Rohan] Man is about to take a wound, exert bearer to prevent that.
"They wore Strange elvish armor, shiny and curvy..."
I think it lacks flavor. Armor that protects others? I think a condition would fit it better. A unique condition, while we're at that.
[1] Honoring the Allegaince [Elven]
Event • Skirmish
Exert an [Elven] companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +4
"...We come to honor that Alligance."
Cool.
-
Yeah, this is my first DC set. :up:
That's fantastically awesome, but please slow down! ;) Trust me posting too many cards is not the way to go: it discourages reviews and means you go through your set faster! :P )
•The One Ring, Pursued By All [Ring]
V: +1
R:+1
Response: If the Ring-Bearer is about to take a wound, He or She wears The One Ring untill the Regroup Phase. While wearing The One Ring, each time bearer is about to take a wound, add a burden instead.
"Sauron is coming for the Ring..."
This ring is I think too powerful, though Rings are obviously very difficult to design. It's slightly better than Ring of Rings and straight better than Isildur's Bane. It needs some kind of drawback to the ability to wear the Ring any time and take only 1 burden. I quite like EL's idea of wearing the ring only in a specific phase and I would recommend Maneuver so that you're losing some versatility in that respect to get some in others.
(0) •Frodo, Bearing a Burden [Shire]
Companion • Hobbit
S: 5
V: 4
R: 10
Ring-Bearer
Frodo is Resistance -1 for each wound on him.
"He's been through enough!" Sam shouted at Faramir.
I think this guy is awesome! :gp:
[5] •Gimli, Enraged Axeman [Dwarven]
Companion • Dwarf
S: 6
V: 3
R: 6
Enduring Damage +1
Gimli is strength +1 for each minion he is skirmishing.
Gimli is Resistance -1 for each card he bears.
"Let them come, there is one Dwarf yet in Moria who still draws breath!"
[2] to [5] is a massive jump. With all that text, I would leave him at [4] which makes him much harder to start than at [2] but I think that would be an appropriate cost. On the other hand, I'd be tempted to lose some text and power to make him cost his usual [2], but if you're making a theme out of companions with different stats, that's cool as well.
[2] •Gimli's Battle Axe, Goblinfate [Dwarven]
Possession • Hand Wepon
S: +2
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot a [Moria] minion, Gimli is strength +2 and Defender +1
Gimli's Hate for Goblin's fuled his Fury.
Interesting, but of limited use. I think it could give a straight damage bonus no problem.
[1] •Lone Dwarf [Dwarven]
Condition
S: +1
Bearer must be Gimli
While you can spot 3 orcs, Gimli is Defender +1.
"...One Dwarf in Moria..."
That's cool. I might want "While you can spot 3 Orcs and no other Dwarves, Gimli is defender +1." That's a fun tie-in to the title.
[1] Fury of Battle [Dwarven]
Event • Manuver
Exert a Dwarf twice to make him Defender +2.
"ARGHH," Gimli cried.
Dwarves I don't think should be this good at defender bonuses. I would make this title a skirmish pump.
(0) Fury Unmatched [Dwarven]
Event • Skirmish
Make a Dwarf Damage +1 for each wound on him.
"No one could match a dwarf's fury"
Compare to Battle to the Last - this one is much worse. I would throw in a straight strength pump as well: "Make a Dwarf strength +2 and damage +1 for each wound on him."
[1] Competition [Dwarven]
Event • Skirmish
Exert a Dwarf to make him strength +1 for each Elf you can spot.
" ...But I myself am sitting pretty on fourty-three."
Awesome! You don't need to exert, but this is a great card. I think, however, that it needs a different title because Competition suggests only Legolas, not a whole bunch of Elves that you would be using with this card.
[2] •Grimir, Wise Elder [Dwarven]
Follower
S: +1
R: +1
Aid- Add a Threat
Exert the companion this follower is attached on to take a [Dwarven] event into hand from your discard pile.
"The Dwarfs respected his wisdom."
You need a phase action, presumably "Skirmish:" Otherwise, great card. :up:
[2] •Well-Prepared [Dwarven]
Condition • Support Area
Fellowship: Exert a Dwarf to play a [Dwarven] possesion on him from your draw deck. (Limit once per turn)
"We Dwarf's can never be taken by suprise," Gimli boasted.
Hmmmm, I like.
[1] •Natural Fortifications [Dwarven]
Condition • Support Area
While The Fellowship is at a Mountain Site, Each minion is strength -1.
"An orc is weakend after trying to reach a Dwarf on a Mountain."
You need some spotting requirement, like a whole bunch of Dwarves. Then I'd add the keyword "Fortification" just for fun!
[2] •Old Alliance [Elven]
Condition • Support Area
Exert an [Elven] companion and a [Rohan] companion to wound a minion.
"...An Alliance once existed between Elves and Men..."
Again needs a phase. Presumably maneuver? I reckon as a condition this could be too good. I would make it cost [1] or (0) and make it a maneuver event.
[2] Naith Armor [Elven]
Possesion • Armor
V: +1
Bearer must be an Elf
Response: If a [Rohan] Man is about to take a wound, exert bearer to prevent that.
"They wore Strange elvish armor, shiny and curvy..."
Oooh, very nice!
[1] Honoring the Allegaince [Elven]
Event • Skirmish
Exert an [Elven] companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +4
"...We come to honor that Alligance."
Cool stuff.
I'm looking forward to more cards, but a bit slower! :up:

Yes please slow down so those of us who are at work and can't have tlhh open for very long in one go, can get chance to review them all before their boss comes in!
Less is more!

[2] •Old Alliance [Elven]
Condition • Support Area
Exert an [Elven] companion and a [Rohan] companion to wound a minion.
"...An Alliance once existed between Elves and Men..."
If you keep it as is, it needs a phase. However, I think I'd prefer it as an event that just requires spotting.
[2] Naith Armor [Elven]
Possesion • Armor
V: +1
Bearer must be an Elf
Response: If a [Rohan] Man is about to take a wound, exert bearer to prevent that.
"They wore Strange elvish armor, shiny and curvy..."
Eh. Non-unique vitality bonuses are generally things I try to avoid. But I don't think this card is too good. Maybe... add some twilight along with exerting bearer.
Oh, and you need a period after "Bearer must be an Elf," and "Response" should be in bold.
Yes, yes, I'm the format police. :roll: It helps me review things, it really does.
[1] Honoring the Allegaince [Elven]
Event • Skirmish
Exert an [Elven] companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +4
"...We come to honor that Alligance."
Nifty.
-
"Resposne" should be in bold.
Yes, yes, I'm the format police. :roll: It helps me review things, it really does.
But not the spelling police, apparently. ;)

Re-quoted this one to mention it has an ugly typo on the tile. Seriously, you have to check these cards more thoroughly for spelling, GoG, it diminishes your work. ;)
[1] Naith Cloak

Elven Cloak pwns this any day. Either reprint it, or try something different.

They kept the boreders of Lothlorien safe.
Fair enough.
[5] Tellia!
Event • Regroup
Discards 2 [Elven] Companions to discards 2 minions.
"Tellia,"Aragorn Shouted.
Ouch! Way harsh. Of course, I'd gladly toss a pair of Lorien Elf to get rid of Balrog and Cave Troll, for instance, but what are the odds of pulling this off on a regular basis? I think it could actually cost a lot less twilight.

This is cool and simple. Unfortunately, with the huge number of great [Elven] [2] cost non-unique companions out there, I think this needs to be more useful. I don't think +2 strength for that ability would be too much.
[5] Tellia!
Event • Regroup
Discards 2 [Elven] Companions to discards 2 minions.
"Tellia,"Aragorn Shouted.
I reckon for that cost it could discard each minion. I might suggest that; you lose 2 companions, but there are no minions when you move.
Added more.
Make a new post for new DC's mate so its the latest post people can see :up:
And yes, if instead of posting a reply which said "Added more" you posted cards in a new reply each time, it does make it easier to review.

Agree with Thran on all fronts. :up: I'd go with resistance +1 for the cloak. Then it stands a bit more apart.

I vhad actually put a Resistance +1 on the cloak when I wrote it on my paper. Forgot to put it on though. #-o
About Posting it new each time, I want to have all my DC list on the same post.
Added more. ;)

Actually, no it doesn't. I hate it when people space 'em apart so that you have to dig to find anything... ](*,)

I finished the [Elven] culture.

[1] Naith Blade [Elven]
Possesion • Hand Wepon

Bearer must be an Elf
Bearer is strength +1 for each wounded minion
"...Long curved elven steel..."
wounded minion you can spot methinks.
[1] Elven Shield [Elven]
Possesion • Shield
Bearer must be an Elf
Bearer can take no more than 1 wound in each skirmish.
"Broad and Golden..."
misspelled possession
[3] Naith Warrior [Elven]
Companion • Elf
S: 7

Skirmish: Exert this Companion twice to wound a minion.
"The stood tall and proud."
I'd say archery ability, exert this companion and another elf perhaps?
[2] Archery Support [Elven]
Event • Archery
Exert 2 [Elven] Companions to wound [2] minions.
Sword-work is made easier with archery support.
now this is really good...maybe make it exert one to wound one and we are good.
To be Continued...

"Strength +1 for each wounded minion you can spot is more correct. I would also do one of 2 things, because it seems a bit too good: make it cost [2], or lose the original strength bonus.
[1] Elven Shield [Elven]
Possesion • Shield
Bearer must be an Elf
Bearer can take no more than 1 wound in each skirmish.
"Broad and Golden..."
Sure. Not an ability that shields have historically had, but it's fair enough.

I think "wound a minion skirmishing an unbound companion" would be better, just so that you can't save your Ring-bearer, or skirmishing an Elf (which I didn't suggest because I thought you would want this guy to work in [Rohan] as well. Also, unfortunately [3] cost [Elven] companions are very frustrating because there's nothing good to have with them in your starting fellowship. I would perhaps suggest a -1 twilight reduction if you can spot an Elf (or possibly a [Rohan] Man).
[2] Archery Support [Elven]
Event • Archery
Exert 2 [Elven] Companions to wound [2] minions.
Sword-work is made easier with archery support.
Obviously you don't need to bracket the 2. I actually think this is fine; 2 exertions and [2] for 2 wounds seems fair enough to me. Maybe it could cost [3].

[4] •Gandalf, Instilled of Courage [Gandalf]
Companion • Wizard
S: 7
V: 4
R: 7
Each knight is strength +1 and Resistance +2
"No matter what comes through that gate you will stand your ground!"
Not a big fan of the subtitle, but he's fun. Perhaps make him a knight as well, just for kicks?
[2] •Brand, Friend to the Dwarfs [Gandalf]
Companion • Man
S: 5
V: 3
R: 7
Archer
Each [Gandalf] Man is strength +1 for each [Dwarven] Companion you can spot
"... He had the aid of the Dwarves of Erebor..."
As in the lore, the subtitle should be "Dwarves" rather than "Dwarfs". I should know! :lol: I love the synergy, but I think it needs a cap. Perhaps limit +3? Or only count Dwarves with resistance 5 or more or something? I dunno. Archer is probably a bit much as well, much as I like the idea. Now if it were Bard instead.... ;)
[1] Blade of Dale [Gandalf]
Possession • Hand Weapon
S: +1
R: +1
Bearer must be a [Gandalf] Man.
Bearer is damage +1.
"Most Dalesman used broad-swords."
Certainly gives a nice alternative to Beorning Axe. I'm tempted to make it either cost [2] or drop the resistance bonus, but it MIGHT be okay as is simply because [Gandalf] Men are such a small group.

I agree with Dáin, he should so be a knight! You might have to specify "Each other knight" in that case, but maybe not...

Yeah, this is crazy, and for a culture which has ridiculous blanket bonuses already. I think it would be cool if Brand was an archer and "Brand is strength +1 for each [Dwarven] companion you can spot." I think that would be more balanced and still very cool.

I think I'd rather that the damage bonus was a bit conditional on something, like resistance, number of Dwarves, anything...
