Officially, the 8/13/07 CRD (Archives has a sticky), but Kralik also notes errata in the online database (just follow the card link). :up:

oh yeah, nazgul blade, that sucks.
i made a deck that used elven supplies as one of its main tactics. i used 4x the faithful stone (i think pre-errata) to generate tons of tokens and then in the fellowship transferred those tokens onto the elven supplies. then arwen, she elf could use those tokens to beat the crud out of anybody, plus i could use them in emergency with any of my other elves.

yeah, but in expanded, just play strength of arms.....then there would be no need for the supplies or the faithful stone  \:D/

and its unique. 4x the faithful stone lets you pick up between 4-12 tokens on an average shadow turn. and there is no winning skirmish requirement. thusly, i like it.

thanks ES.

of course it is not the main card, but in an almost mono elven deck it rocks you win with events and got the tokens on an condition, that mister OP Gil-Galad can get back easily ;)

Scintillating Bird ??

you really think, OK, with some elven cards it is really cool and it is from the holy set Ros, nothing is bad in it ;)

scintillating bird is one of many "useful" (hahaha) cards of the [Gandalf] culture like

drawn to full height
ents marching

etc.

...and elves won't be helpful with this cards as the shadowplayer has got to choose... as most times the shadow player has got to choose by [Gandalf] cards (Treebeard Enraged Sheperd, brooding on tomorrow, Gandalf's staff, ash staff, and many others) -  what a luck that saved from the fire or terrible and evil don't the shadowplayer have to choose... :lol:
- sorry guys... but this was something annoying me since a long time...

I have started to hate Army of Haradrim, AI or not that is a wank card.

Nazgul Blade from BR... waste of time, except in Nazgul possession decks... which are a waste of time
dito! that nazgul blade is as jordy said...

now, I guess you like all the cards above... ok... I also play many of them... but
stern words - clog your hand
with radagast the brown early in play you will probably lose the game due to radagast - because he works sometimes for your opponent...
radagast's herb is a possession - no artifact, so easily to discard - and in standard there are not so many useful spells as in expanded... if it's annoying you, discard it
beorning axe - a possession without ability... except on Grimbeorn... but otherwise, no ability... and [Gandalf] men definitely needs support!!! beorning axe is something that gives support, but even this is not enough to build a competitive deck!!!
grimbeorn - is good, if you can heal and cycle the minions - and if the maneuver phase is not skipped
pallando - it is one of my favorite cards - very good - nothing left to say! ;-)
strange meeting? well... sometimes not so bad, but very specific - so definitely no strong card
the board is set never works - [Gandalf] culture always gives that much pool, that the effect of this event always may be prevented
Glamdring - yes, both of them are very good! but also a poor possession... like a normal gondorian sword... it's easily discarded compared to narsil, anduril or aiglos for instance...

but now, back to topic - worst cards... common!

It is a condition, so you can use this more than once. If it would be an event, well, than it would be hard to defend the existing reasons for such a card.
You gave away your life's grace. I cannot protect you anymore.
