Sorry Chief...can't vote twice. And anyways, in Fellowship of the Ring, the game isn't about having mono-cultural decks for free peoples. Most of the Free Peoples decks are either choke based (Gondor/Elves), Discarding based (Dwarves/Elves), or Archery based (Elves/Gondor). Of course, there are also straight power-companion decks (Gandalf/Gondor/Dwarven) and Hobbit Stealth decks (Shire).

But there are few decks that are based solely on one culture (besides having Frodo and a few support [Shire] cards) in FoTR.

As for Shadows, [Moria] is probably the most popular with [Ringwraith] being second most popular. [Sauron] discarding is evil (I love it) and Uruk-Hai are tough but can be run over if you don't have Saruman and Savagery To Match Their Numbers.

I'm just asking the favourite culture. Example, I play a deck with gandalf and gondor, and I prefer gondor... ;P

And yes, you can vote twice. Just click in the same poll both choices... Or tell me here your two choices and I'll edit it.

Thanks for voting :D

For me, it has got to be Gondor and Isengard. I simply love the Gondorian soldiers. Plus, the Isengard Uruks always seemed more professional and organised than their Moria/Orc counterparts. :D

FotR block only has Aragorn and Boromir for Gondor... no soldiers. :P

Shire and Mordor, the 2 regions lying the farthest from eachother, and because they are -I think- 2 of the least used cultures. The less a culture is used, the more interesting they get. :-)

Since I first started playing the game in fellowship, I had a [Dwarven] / [Moria] deck and it has always been my favourite. Therefore that's where I'm voting!

My vote goes to [Gondor] and [Sauron].

[Dwarven]/ [Sauron] forever. My favourite way if playing.... cycling and drawing and KILLING! *Gets crazed look on face*

But really, no matter how often I change up, play different decks, whatever... I must always go back to that.

[Shire] / [Wraith] here.

Chose [Shire] for Hobbit Hospital. Just the imagery of the name makes me grin. Try not to let anyone get overwhelmed, and the ally crew will do the rest! (And so will Anduin Confluence*, from a different point of view.)

Chose [Wraith] because I like their feel in Fellowship block, especially at Ford of Bruinen. Though this is coming from not having the rares for a good deck... still have a soft spot for Ulaire Lemenya, Lieutenant of Morgul + Sword of Minas Morgul + Black Breath.

I love The Witch-King, Lord of Angmar, that's why I voted Wraith, and I can't remember what I voted for FP, but it was probably Gondor, as always xD

Dwarf/Moria. Always.

dwarf and sauron. it was my first deck and to date, i consider it my favorite deck.

dwarf just straight up kill everyone. don't bother with nazgul's going fierce, with Lord of Moria and Flurry of Blows. they're good as dead. (thank god there was no grima in fotr)

sauron culture just has too much options. discarding, wounding, swarming (with tol brandir), burdening

I agree but I didn't get many great Sauron cards so that's why I said Isengard.
