I'm looking forward to more cards, but a bit slower! :up:

Thranduil

Yes please slow down so those of us who are at work and can't have tlhh open for very long in one go, can get chance to review them all before their boss comes in!

Less is more!

Quote
[2] •Old Alliance [Elven]
 Condition • Support Area
 Exert an [Elven] companion and a [Rohan] companion to wound a minion.
 "...An Alliance once existed between Elves and Men..."

If you keep it as is, it needs a phase. However, I think I'd prefer it as an event that just requires spotting.

 
Quote
[2] Naith Armor [Elven]
 Possesion • Armor
 V: +1
 Bearer must be an Elf
 Response: If a [Rohan] Man is about to take a wound, exert bearer to prevent that.
 "They wore Strange elvish armor, shiny and curvy..."

Eh. Non-unique vitality bonuses are generally things I try to avoid. But I don't think this card is too good. Maybe... add some twilight along with exerting bearer.

Oh, and you need a period after "Bearer must be an Elf," and "Response" should be in bold.

Yes, yes, I'm the format police.  :roll: It helps me review things, it really does.

[1] Honoring the Allegaince [Elven]
 Event • Skirmish
 Exert an [Elven] companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +4
 "...We come to honor that Alligance."

Nifty.

"Resposne" should be in bold.

But not the spelling police, apparently. ;)

Thran and EL are all over this already. Nice to see some [Elven] / [Rohan] love going on!

Sweet! maybe  I should make a Dc set...
Time
What know we of this despondent thing
No sign no sound no tranquil ring
We try to tell its quantity
yet fail to see the point
Only one can know of it
to this eternal joint
We have not power in Use
To hold this creature bay
But only wait for it to change
Inside the soul of it we lay

[1] Honoring the Allegaince [Elven]
 Event • Skirmish
 Exert an [Elven] companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +4
 "...We come to honor that Alligance."

Re-quoted this one to mention it has an ugly typo on the tile. Seriously, you have to check these cards more thoroughly for spelling, GoG, it diminishes your work. ;)

 [1] Naith Cloak
 Possesion • Cloak
 Beare must be an Elf
 The Minion archery total is -1
 "...Long and Flowing..."

Elven Cloak pwns this any day. Either reprint it, or try something different.

 [2] Naith Protector
 Companion • Elf
 S: 6
 V: 3
 R: 6
 Skirmish: Exert this companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +1.
 They kept the boreders of Lothlorien safe.

Fair enough.

 [5] Tellia!
 Event • Regroup
 Discards 2 [Elven] Companions to discards 2 minions.
 "Tellia,"Aragorn Shouted.
 
Ouch! Way harsh. Of course, I'd gladly toss a pair of Lorien Elf to get rid of Balrog and Cave Troll, for instance, but what are the odds of pulling this off on a regular basis? I think it could actually cost a lot less twilight.

Yep, FM is right that Elven Cloak is much better, and also not played. Maybe another ability or a resistance +1.

[2] Naith Protector
 Companion • Elf
 S: 6
 V: 3
 R: 6
 Skirmish: Exert this companion to make a [Rohan] Man strength +1.
 They kept the boreders of Lothlorien safe.
This is cool and simple. Unfortunately, with the huge number of great [Elven] [2] cost non-unique companions out there, I think this needs to be more useful. I don't think +2 strength for that ability would be too much.

[5] Tellia!
 Event • Regroup
 Discards 2 [Elven] Companions to discards 2 minions.
 "Tellia,"Aragorn Shouted.
I reckon for that cost it could discard each minion. I might suggest that; you lose 2 companions, but there are no minions when you move.

And yes, if instead of posting a reply which said "Added more" you posted cards in a new reply each time, it does make it easier to review.

Agree with Thran on all fronts. :up: I'd go with resistance +1 for the cloak. Then it stands a bit more apart.
Best regards,

Actually, no it doesn't. I hate it when people space 'em apart so that you have to dig to find anything...  ](*,)

[1] Naith Blade [Elven]
 Possesion • Hand Wepon
 S: +1
 Bearer must be an Elf
 Bearer is strength +1 for each wounded minion
 "...Long curved elven steel..."
wounded minion you can spot methinks.

 [1] Elven Shield [Elven]
 Possesion • Shield
 Bearer must be an Elf
 Bearer can take no more than 1 wound in each skirmish.
 "Broad and Golden..."
misspelled possession

 [3] Naith Warrior [Elven]
 Companion • Elf
 S: 7
 V: 3
 R: 6
 Skirmish: Exert this Companion twice to wound a minion.
"The stood tall and proud."
I'd say archery ability, exert this companion and another elf perhaps?

 [2] Archery Support [Elven]
 Event • Archery
 Exert 2 [Elven] Companions to wound [2] minions.
 Sword-work is made easier with archery support.
now this is really good...maybe make it exert one to wound one and we are good.
