SoP's Signets (Shadows, remaking already made cards)

While you can spot Gimli, Legolas gains the Gimli signet and is Damage +1 while at a mountain site.
While you can spot Aragorn, Legolas gains the Aragorn signet and gains [ranger].

whatcha think?

Pretty simple and clean. Nice. Also, fix the ranger thing.

I think this is actually a bit too messy to just tag on other abilities as you've done. I wanted a third ability like:

"Archery: Exert a companion with the Legolas signet and a companion with either the Gimli or Aragorn signet to wound a minion."

For example. And each one would have their own special ability that triggers off the other signets in the triplet.

Or something.

Why not a static ability, like adding to the archery total if you can spot different characters with those signets?

great now I'm confused...can you guys re-review aragorn's bow too? I'm gonna give aragorn and legolas another try...

Companion • Man

Signet • Aragorn
Ranger
While you can spot Gimli, Aragorn gains the Gimli signet
While you can spot Legolas, Aragorn gains the Legolas signet.  Regroup :Exert Aragorn and a companion with the Legolas or Gimli signet to make the move limit +1 (limit +1). The shadow player may draw 2 cards.

again this might be too complicated...but its something, him pushing them on to run harder.



•Aragorn's Bow, Rangers Longbow
Possession • Ranged Weapon
Bearer must be Aragorn. If Aragorn has the gimli and legolas signets, at the start of the archery phase you may exert him and A companion with the Aragorn Signet to begin a skirmish phase between him and a minion and wound that minion.  When that Skirmish phase is ended, resume the current phase.

too complicated? should it give him archer or some other boost?

now that almost seems like too much text...this be harder than I thought

If you're going to be having lots of this sort of gaining signets on cards, then you could make a keyword for it. "Companionship - Gimli" meaning, while you can spot Gimli, this companion gains the Gimli signet. Or maybe "Companionship - Gimli" just means "gain the Gimli signet" so you might write "While you can spot Gimli, Aragorn gains companionship - Gimli." There are probably better words and phrasings for this, but you get my thought process. Yeah, I like this Aragorn now but you have so say "each Shadow player may draw 2 cards".

I like this guy. The ability seems strangely familiar...

This does seem too complicated, and doesn't make a huge amount of sense! I might do something to key off the number of signets Aragorn has like "Add the start of the archery phase you may exert Aragorn to exert a minion X times, where X is the number of signets Aragorn has." Summit like that. I dunno.

I like Thran's idea there. It'd save you a LOT of unnecessary text.

He'd do better with hunter 1 instead of archer. But that's just my opinion. Thran's idea would, again, save you tons of space.

Thran's suggestion has some real merit. Other than that, just move the regroup ability to its own line and I think we're cooking!

Something like Thran suggested WOULD be better....
