Hm...

Methinks the deck is more effective with the sporatic healing removed and a refuge package run. I mean, you've already got 7 extra companions. I think that Namarie would perhaps work better, than company of archers, since its a 2 for 1.

My multicultural wounding deck, which I've been doing pretty well with, ran an initiative and a refuge style package.
Title: Re: Multi cultural wounding with ninja gollum
Post by: alehaak on December 10, 2008, 02:00:30 PM
initiative with that gondor condition ? how do you lose initiative?
do you think 7 companions are enought to put a refuge on this deck?
I'm thinking to remove 4x nocked and 2 elrond to put 2 refuge....
Title: Re: Multi cultural wounding with ninja gollum
Post by: SomeRandomDude on December 10, 2008, 02:05:02 PM
I think that a refuge package needs more companions.

Refuge is a dedicated strategy, either go for it hard (10+ SPARE copies of companions) or ignore it.

I use Rohirrim Guard, Gloin, Son of Groin, Robin Smallburrow, Shirrif #$&*@!-Robin, Daddy Twofoot + playing whatever event he nabs, Gandalf, Powerful Guide. Of course, I also pack Glimpse of Fate, A Light In His Mind and Brooding on Tomorrow. But I run about a dozen companions + Shadowplay/Unheeded, Dinendal, Rumil, Legolas, Aragorn's Bow (regular) with Aragorn, Thorongil, Pippin, Wearer of Black and Silver with Faramir, Bearer of Quality. So it wounds pretty effectively and gives a variety of tools to use.

how do you use this deck? You have to spot 2 elves to play glimpse, 2 hobbits to play shadowplay and you are using farabir RB !
can you send me your decklist by PM ?
=)

Post by: SomeRandomDude on December 11, 2008, 08:50:16 AM
If I can find it...

My starting Fellowship is Faramir, Pippin, Merry and Legolas. I then run Gandalf, Rumil, Aragorn, Thornogil, Gloin and Rohirrim Guard. I play the shadowplay, then bounce Merry Swordthain to discard and circumvent the rule of 9. Shadowplay is in play, a Light in his Mind stops working, but by the time I get my 10th companion there's not usually a corruption threat.

Its essentially a toolbox.

your initiative deck is so hard ! oO
i had one, but it was simpler... with smeagol and the guard...
Title: Re: Multi cultural wounding with ninja gollum
Post by: SomeRandomDude on December 11, 2008, 07:58:04 PM
Well...it ran Refuge to, so pretty much the Hobbits killed most everything + Rohirrim Guard. The rest of the stuff was just gravy, it came as it did and helped the game some. Like I said, it was more of a toolbox.

A few comments on the NG side:

- Personally I like to stick with Threatening Guide primarily (wanting as many threats as possible), and Stinker as backup (corrupting the Ring-bearer if the threats were swallowed as burdens). So I'd run We Must Have It to increase the chance of pulling/replaying one of them, and possibly drop Mad Thing and Hopeless in the process.

- Huge fan of Not Easily Avoided, so I suggest it every chance I get. :lol: Helps set up faster, cycle, and can even boost Shelob (Gollum, too) as well. And of course if Shelob can win her skirmish, that's another exertion from Promise Keeping.

- You're a Liar and a Thief is a great card in Expanded. In combination with Promise Keeping and Incited, one copy can kill a 3-vitality companion that wasn't even assigned to a skirmish (plus exert another). I'd definitely try to fit more in.

Where is the multicultural shadow?

Multicultural wounding is the fellowship
Ninja Gollum is the Shadow

Sorry for didn't making this clear.

yes um why no thorongil? you could use him instead of driven by need then dump rumil for glorfindel to remove threats...

Glorfindel, Eldarin Lord remove 1 threat, when aragorn remove 3. which gives me 2 more shots per turn. And the main idea is don't fight.

1x Rúmil, Silvan Elf
4x Aragorn, Driven by Need
4x Éowyn, Lady of Ithilien
2x Gimli's Battle Axe, Trusted Weapon
1x Hand Axe
2x Elven Bow
3x Aragorn's Bow, Ranger's Longbow
1x Brego
1x Spear of the Mark
1x Ring of Guile

Looks very solid. Perhaps adding hunter Orophin would boost Rumil and Namarie a bit, but it looks really strong. Will have to find a tech for it  ;D
