ve tried this deck out a few times and it seems to do pretty well.
1x Frodo, Resolute Hobbit - TGR
1x Eomer, Horsemaster
1x Eowyn, Daughter of Eomund
1x Gamling, Warrior of Rohan
1x Theoden, Ednew
3x Rohan Stable Master
1x Rohan Worker
1x Rohirrim Doorwarden
1x Eomer's Bow
1x Erkenbrand's Horn
1x Erkanbrand's Shield
1x Eomer's Spear, Trusty Weapon
1x Gamling's Horn
3x Swift Steed
3x Riders Spear
4x Riddermark Javelin
3x Surrendered Weapons
3x Sword Rack
3x Last Days of My House
Basically wait til you draw Gamling or a LDoMH (and pull Gamling) and a surrendered weapons. Then during the skirmish phase start pumping Gamling then when he has all possessions he can, start throwing them around with surrendered weapons, then play more spears until you win the skirmish. My shadow is a man archery which probably should change as this deck is a bit prone to cluttering up. Suggestions?

Precise Attack and/or Unyielding could be fun.

I don't want to disappoint you, but this freeps wouldn't live too long in expanded, you can't play "fair" decks in this format. You have only 5 companions, so basically you die to direct wounding shadows, can't remove burdens, don't have any ways to heal your dudes aside from the sanctuaries and you can't discard conditions and support are possessions. Basically, everything you can do is pumping, and that is far from enough in expanded.

I feel like surprising you, it hasn't lost yet that I remember, and that's out of like 7 games. The companions can have really high strength at any given time, and the a decked out Gamling can one-shot any dangerous minions like Sauron if it's played right. While it does have trouble cycling due to the full set of possessions in hand at any given time, it still has the capability to throw them out at almost any given time, clearing my hand for my shadow phase.

WHat kind of shadow have you combined it with? And how do you survive decks that do not skirmish/dont care about the skirmish? Rapid reload decks will do much damage, and I doubt you can outrun an IB deck.

I run a [Men] archery deck. Probably would get completely slaughtered by those 2 deck types, and probably a few more, but it's still a very fun deck to play.
