 :o  [Gandalf] Hobbits? ....I like their abilities. Seems to be balanced and well-working. Maybe the hobbits should stick with the shire culture...

Great cards anyway. Go on!  =D>

I would suggest some reformatting. For example, you can get the twilight symbols by using square brackets (so [3], [5], [X]) except (0) which needs round brackets. You can also get the cultures by putting the culture name in square brackets (so [Gandalf]).

I would then suggest that you post your card a bit like this so that it's easiest for everyone to review:

[1] •Merry, Friend of the Ents [Gandalf]
Companion • Hobbit
STR:3
VIT:4
Res.8
Add 1 to the number of Ents you spot.
Skirmish: Exert Merry and add a threat to make a Ent strength +2.
"Trees ! Climb the trees "

That said, I think these cards are awesome! I always thought that there was more room for companions in different cultures, and making these guys [Gandalf] adds a whole host of possibilities. I might suggesting to not add a threat and instead have Merry "Exert Merry to make an Ent strength +1" and Pippin "Exert Pippin to make an Ent damage +1." I think that would be fine.

Awesome ideas all round! :gp:
