Ages End - Expanded

I like your Legolas.

I also love your Elrond. However, I would recommend that you return him to his usual 8/4/7 stats, rather than 7/5/7. I would also not remove a threat in the regroup phase (which is too powerful and not in tune with his subtitle) and instead replace it with some other kind of healing, like "At the start of the regroup phase, you may add to heal Elrond." Or alternatively I'd write him like this:

•Elrond, Master of Healing
Companion • Elf
Str: 8
Vit: 4
Res: 7
At the start of the fellowship phase, you may heal the Ring-bearer.
At the start of the maneuver phase, you may add to heal another companion.
At the start of the regroup phase, you may add a threat to heal another Elf.

The reason I wrote it like that is because regroup healing is much better than maneuver or fellowship healing.

I look forward to more stuff!

and for the record, IS big D gonna be trolling around trying to find sites that show graphical DC's?

LMAO I really can't imagine a Decipher employee searching for graphical DC's to sue broke former players!

At the start of each of your turns,
you may heal the ringbearer.
At the start of the maneuver phase,
you may add a threat to heal an elf companion.
At the start of the regroup phase,
you may remove a threat.

Way broken. He's not unique, and he heals up to two wounds every turn!
Even the threat that gets added gets removed later! I'd try to follow some
of Thran's suggestions; remember, healing gets really broken, really fast.

OTOH, who knows, maybe with enough lawsuits and at least ONE employee dedicating himself to LotR in at least ONE way, we might get some new cards eventually...

I'll discuss graphical DCs with Kralik, but it's a topic that we've discussed in the past and decided is too fuzzy to risk messing with. We'll talk again soon, though.

As for Master of Healing, Thran's got some good suggestions. Nice ideas overall, though.

At the start of your maneuver phase
you may exert Arwen to exert a minion
(or exert a minion twice if the fellowship
is at a river site).

[Thranduil]

Certainly interesting, and I can't decide whether it's overpowered or not...

[DáinIronfoot]

Perhaps this instead, to balance it a little better:

At the start of your maneuver phase, if Arwen bears an possession, you may exert her to exert a minion (or exert a minion twice if the fellowship is at a river site).

NOW it's awesome, flavorful, and balanced. After all, this ties in nicely with Arwen having either her sword or Asfaloth, both of which tie into her best-known river scene.

I like this one a lot, by the way.

[FM]

Or Elven Brooch...

[DáinIronfoot]

That...uh...makes LOTS of sense...too. Yeah.

Stop shooting holes in my swiss cheese logic!

I really like it man. It's really balanced specially taking in consideration Legolas, WE that needs not to exert. This Arwen is amazing

Dude, you're not making her balanced, you're making her an empty companion until you stick something to her, totally spoiling her potential. You could have her being useless for about one or two turns unless u'd fill your deck with elven possessions just to use her, and her ability is balanced enough already. Legolas, WE doesn't need anything to trigger and it's an average rare and doesn't even exert to do his exertion. Getting scenes from the movie and transalting them exactly to the game doesn't work 

BTW any possession discarding would turn her back to a worse version of elite rider LOL

I can't imagine a D employee at all there all gone.

I have to say that I'm not a fan of that subtitle - it's rather derogatory and has sinister connotations and seems completely out of place on Galadriel. You also need some stats with this card. I've reformatted it below in a way that's easier to read:

•Galadriel, Her Ladyship
Companion • Elf
Strength: 3
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 7
To play, spot 3 elves.
When you play Galadriel, you may reveal an opponents hand.
Each minion skirmishing an Elf at a river or forest site is strength -1.

I would  also lose one of those abilities, but I'm not sure which one. Each ability is cool, interesting and fitting of Galadriel, but I'm not sure she should have all 3.

[sickofpalantirs]

her ladyships is derogatory, and a subtitle of shelob.  Otherwise, thats a VERY interesting galadriel.
