Raider Beasterlings - Shadow (Expanded)

[wrigh516]

As the physical cards are getting harder to find these days, I gathered a large physical collection of common and nostalgic decks to play with family and friends as a pre-built game.  I'm posting these decks as a reference and for feedback.
The decks are split into free peoples and shadow sides, all interchangeable at 35 (36 as I added more cycling and discard decks) cards each.  There are some obvious drawbacks to doing it this way, but it is 100% worth it to allow mixing/matching.  It allows enough combinations to keep each game unique and interesting.  The idea is to have thematic and fun strategies while maintaining a balance.  These are built with physical cards, so any in the $150+ range are not always going to make it in due to the costs and to maintain balance among the decks.  I follow the Expanded format and rules before errata, but some decks might also fit into other formats.  This is one of those decks:

Raider Beasterlings - Shadow (Expanded)
A very stereotypical Beasterling deck.

Minions:
Easterling Army x4
Easterling Captain x4
Easterling Regiment x2
Easterling Footman x4
Easterling Axeman x4

Possessions:
Easterling Polearm x4
Raider Bow x4
Ships of Great Draught

Events:
Red Wrath x3
Discovered x2

Conditions:
Small Hope x4


Strategy:
Get to 2 burdens as soon as you can using Small Hope and Easterling Footman.  This kicks off Easterling Captain, Easterling Army, and Easterling Polearm.
Raider Bow and Easterling Regiment give you more twilight to use Red Wrath or Easterling Captain ability.
Ships of Great Draught helps cycle and retrieve what you need.
