Rise of the Ring - The Hobbit

[DáinIronfoot]

Blast...late to the party again. Nothing new to add, but I do like them.

[Gate Troll]

Goblin-Wrought Tunnels
Condition • Support Area
To play, spot a Goblin.
Each time the fellowship moves from an underground site, the Free Peoples player must exert a companion.
Still goblins go faster than dwarves, and these goblins knew the way better (they had made the paths themselves), and were madly angry; so that do what they could the dwarves heard the cries and howls getting closer and closer.

I have to agree with SoP here, this could get really broken if it isn't unique.

Exhaustion
Condition • Support Area
Resistance: -1
Each time bearer is assigned to skirmish a Goblin, the Free Peoples player must exert bearer or add a burden.
Skirmish: Remove a burden to transfer this condition to a companion skirmishing an minion.
The blink of red torches could be seen behind them in the tunnel they were following; and they were getting deadly tired.

Seems okay, the only part that confuses me is that the first part references 'a Goblin' and the second part references any old minion. I think you should change the second part to
Skirmish: Remove a burden to transfer this condition to a companion skirmishing a Goblin minion. 

Seeking Goblins
Minion • Orc
Strength: 9
Vitality: 2
Site: 4
Goblin. Fierce.
For every 2 underground sites on the adventure path, this minion gains hunter 1.
They put out their torches and they slipped on soft shoes, and they chose out their very quickest runners with the sharpest ears and eyes.

Cool. 

Swiftly in the Dark
Event • Skirmish
Make a Goblin gain hunter 1 for each underground site on the adventure path.
These ran forward, as swift as weasels in the dark, and with hardly any more noise than bats.
I'd say cut cost to 1

Another nice one. 

Stalking Goblins
Minion • Orc
Strength: 9
Vitality: 3
Site: 4
Goblin.
While you can spot 3 burdens, this minion gains hunter 2 and fierce.
Nor did they see them. But they were seen by the goblins that ran silently up behind, for Gandalf was letting his wand give out a faint light to help the dwarves as they went along.

An Ambush bonus would be neat.. Aside from that, great card.

Alright. THAT part of the adventure is over now (I think), and now it's time to move on to something I'VE been looking forward to a lot - Riddles in the Dark!

For now, though, let's start with our two stars - good 'ol Bilbo and Gollum.

•Gollum, Asker of Riddles [gollum]

seems that once would be enoguh, with the bottom card you'd still lose an exertion...though on the other hand, it'd be easy to do it 5 times with ATAR, maybe exert 3 times to reinforce twice?

No need to capitalize "Fellowship", Mr. Format Police.

Other than that, looks good to me, assuming you don't have tons and tons of mountain sites. I MIGHT prefer dropping the spotting requirement and instead spotting Gollum when adding the tokens or triggering the ability...yeah, require spotting Gollum to add that burden. Keeps it from getting out of line. This kicks serious butt against Dwarves!

Yoikes! I'd specify riddles just to avoid confusion...unless you intend to do something with tokens on, say, riddles. My only worry here is that this turns Gollum and his riddles into a beast at later sites. Perhaps remove , where X is the region number, or exert Gollum to add the tokens and build in some riddle-related healing (perhaps using twilight) to make it a bit more combo-intensive to turn twilight into tokens. Does any of that make sense?
