Draft Packs

[legolas3333]

I'm thinking of buying a fotr draft pack box but I need to know if each draft pack contains the same cards, so do they?

[FM]

No, they do not. They all contain a fixed number of cards, though, like, X companions, X minions, 1 rare, etc. Not worth it, if you ask me, unless you actually DO want to draft them. Otherwise, spend your money straight out on FotR boxes, or Reflections.

Fship draft packs are worth it if you also buy a box of Reflections or FOTR and actually draft with your buddies. Draft is a great way to have fun, get folks excited about the game again, and get some cards.

I agree!
I love draft.

My friends and I went in together a few years back and bought 2 boxes of draft packs and one box each of FotR, MoM, and Realms just for drafting. We still have a bunch of supplies sitting in my closet. We probably get together for a draft tournament once a year or so with all us who used to play in our group (probably 6-8 of us at any given time).

Draft is a great way to play with friends who used to play but either don't have cards anymore or don't want deal with the hassle of finding them and making decks.

Has anyone ever taken a stab at documenting the King Draft Packs that were available online? I'm guessing we could replicate their contents fairly easily and I could provide them for local drafts.

Trying to remember what they looked like:
Gondor wraiths
Black orcs
Besiegers
Easterlings
Rohan

Help me out if you can...

I never played enough King Draft on LotRO to be of any help - sorry bud!

If you can figure it out though, I'm sure it would be a HUGE hit with any old-school players looking for something fun at a con during some downtime.

I think I'm going to play around with it, from memory anyway. I remember it was The Score if you got the Sauron DP, and then managed to draft away the Besiegers...
