Post by: Gil-Estel on January 27, 2009, 10:53:56 AM: 2x Wolves of Isengard(5R69)
4x Wolf-voices(5C68)
3x *Foul Horde(5R50)
2x *Saruman, Master of Foul Folk(5R56)
2x *Sharku, Warg-captain(5R58)
2x Isengard Rider(5C53)
4x Isengard Scout Troop(5U55)
3x Warg-master(5C66)
2x *Sharku's Warg(5R59)
4x Isengard Scimitar(5U54)
3x Warg(5C65)
4x War-warg(5U64)

Something I tried, probably it can be better, but it was my first built. I like it though.

That rocks.
I'd like to forcely fit in 2 x Saruman's staff in there no matter what. Maybe 1 instead of 1 War-warg and the other instead of 1 Isengard Scimitar... but that's just a suggestion.
I know he cannot bring his staff from discard but anyway kicks in if the old chump brings all the scimitars and wargs and then goes for a piece of the action!

Post by: FM on January 27, 2009, 12:05:06 PM: A pair of Staffs for a pair of Saruman would be too much, I'd be inclined to play, at most, 1 Staff only, however, since even Saruman might clog up your hand for quite sometime, I think the staff becomes a liability more than an asset.

Post by: daisukeman on January 27, 2009, 12:20:05 PM: Yes it can clog up, but the pair of cards really aren't that hard to play.
mainly because and this set there are usually enough twilight and at site 5 and 9 of TT you bring Saruman, hence just needing the staff at hand.

Post by: Kralik on January 27, 2009, 03:14:31 PM: IMO a must is Banner of Isengard. I balance it like: 3x Banner of Isengard and 2x Isengard Scimitar.

Still I believe the scimitar to have a slight advantage compared to the Banner, namely paying for the much costing Wargs.

Post by: Kralik on January 28, 2009, 05:47:55 AM: It's true that it is handy. But I'd look at it this way: If I control 2 sites, I'd much rather than 4 exertions than add [2]. But I have both in there so either can be used depending on what is needed.

Post by: Gil-Estel on January 28, 2009, 06:23:47 AM: But most of the times you need Wargs to win skirmishes. But I totally agree that the lack of at least 2 copies of the Banner in my deck isn't a good thing, haha

Post by: sickofpalantirs on February 10, 2009, 03:32:52 PM: I only have one schimitar, than I'm running 2 banners I believe. I'm still trading for another foul horde, as I think those are really the bread and butter of the warg strategy in my area.
