Gonder men lead by Gandalf

[Gil-Estel]

Here is for Ket, I saw your message from 2017 and I knew I had to act. Tomorrow a friend of mine is dropping by and we decided to play a game of LotR, something we do once every year. We made a pact so to say. So as soon as I was finished with the deck, I came to this place to share it with you guys. Madg0blin, if you are reading, stop now, you will face it tomorrow

The aim of the fellowship is simple, build the core army and power through. Elendil, Aragorn, hard to get rid of artifacts, some healing etc. I love to be low on conditions, and if I have some, I like to be able to get them back. That is why On Your Doorstep is there. Just a way of getting something back I really need. That Still Sharp, that Noble Leaders, that Stone Tower etc. Barliman is there to get either On Your Doorstep back or perhaps Servant of the Secret Fire, or, if all goes wrong that needed Saved from the Fire. I think the rest is pretty clear.

The shadow is based on the idea of not knowing what to expect. Hardly anyone -and take this with a huge pile of salt, since I don't know any meta these days- plays events with Nazgul. And they can be so good. Do a little bit of everything and try to time the events the best way possible: hit with a blow!

That's it, thoughts are welcome and I will let you know how things ended!

Hey there my favorite geography teacher! Back into these boards after a long winter

Was looking at your deck list as I've built myself a similar one couple months ago.

I take it you never burn Gandalf, right? The idea is to burn vorondil and set up at site 3 with denethor also?

In mine I have the option of burning gandalf to get Sent Back, leader of the company and palando / watch and wait depending on the shadow I'm playing against.

Oh, I just realized it's movie!

Heije! Thanks for sharing!

How did the game go? Don't forget the rules...if you don't show back up here and let us know how it went, that makes you a big liar.

Was working on the reply, then forgot and now I am here. Hey you guys! So great to are you!! Thanks as well for the comments regarding the deck; they were very helpful :-p.

The deck worked great. He was playing archery elfs with Isengard Trackers. There were some conditions but then I put Caradhras to sleep. I love On Your Doorstep. It gives options.
My shadow didn't do much. He never had burdens so the events didn't hurt him one bit.

So I just outran him.....no sweat.
