Title: Ents and Followers

Frodo, weary from the journey
SaWtC

Merry, in the bloom of health
Pippin, in the bloom of health
Quickbeam, Bregalad
Skinbark, Fladrif

Ent Horde
Host of Fangorn
Leaflock, Finglas
Treebeard, Keeper of the Watchwood

4 ent moot
4 enraged
4 strange meeting

4 momentous gathering
4 for a while less dark
2 boomed and trumpeted

alatar
meneldor
pallando
Radagast, tender of beasts

I know I could go with Farmer Maggot, Ent Horde, and Host of Fangorn in the starting fellowship, but I like using Momentous Gathering to get condtions, as well as Ents.  Followers to gain the boost from strange meeting.  For a while less dark and boomed and trumpeted for pumps.  Treebeard and Pallando can get rid of conditions.  Ent moot gives the hobbits something to do besides become pincushions.  I suppose it could use some healing?  Maybe a Tale of the Great Ring?  At the expense of boomed and trumpeted.

OR:

I don't like Ent Moot or Host of Fangorn, Enraged and Ent Horde are just straight better. A better card would be The Terror of His Coming to recur your Enraged.

I would also be tempted to run Gandalf with this deck for things like Traveled Leader, Saved from the Fire and G for Grand (maybe I would start LoM instead of Fladrif).

Also, it seems like a Sting or Hobbit Sword would not go amiss.

I would go for Radagast, The Brown, just to make sure to run. Running is so cool. That way you could use Traveled Leader.

you have to undergo the lack of healing with ents, just play four shire countryside, or a light in his mind and 2 watch and wait, more events would be good and two copies of palando, he is too good with ents ;)

yeah healing is always a problem with ents maybe add a couple ent draught for the extra health you'd also need burden removel... a light in his mind? or maybe Nine fingered frodo and the ring of doom
