Title: Nelya, Fell Rider Wounding (Shadow only)
Post by: TheJord on October 08, 2008, 02:48:41 PM

1x *Ring of Asperity(9R42) 
2x *Ring of Rancor(9R44) 
1x *Ring of Savagery(17R142) 
3x Lingering Shadow(12U166) 
3x Lost in the Woods(11U212) 
2x Unending Life(12C181) 
2x Echo of Hooves(12C164) 
4x *Ulaire Enquea, Thrall of the One(10R68) 
3x *Ulaire Lemenya, Black Enemy(12U176) 
4x *Ulaire Nelya, Fell Rider(15R186) 
2x *Ulaire Toldea, Thrall of the One(10R71) 
3x Black Rider(12U161) 
3x Shadowy Mount(12R171) 

So the focus here is to kill with Nelya, Fell Rider. Slap the conditions on the companions, then when you are ready, drop Nelya with Ring of Rancor and Shadowy Mount. Combo'd with Unending Life thats upto 3 wounds on one companion.

I have considered a Put Forth His Strength deck, any suggestion of how to do this?

Just a thought, but maybe this could be shifted to a threat build (Cantea FTW, Lemenya ET, even Held Ground). Threats interfere with Thorongil (and Ranger's Longbow) as well as Rumil/Orophin SE. They Feel the Precious can prevent wounds in a pinch. Cantea brings possession removal to the table, and Morgul King and/or Ring of Terror can get some more recursion going.

Or to get more use out of burdens, Cantea BA can force assignments against 0-resistance companions. Against large fellowships, Fell Rider ensures your Nazgul make it to the skirmish (unless they trip over IB), and then BA chooses who dies. :twisted: Dark Horseman can be a threat/burden machine against ARBs.

Put Forth His Strength could be splashed into Morcs. NappyKorn had an Expanded deck that was using Enquea/Ring of Rancor to kill companions, and of course initiative/burdens/threats come with the territory. In Standard... just beat up guys the hard way?
