my 1000st post aka lotr cards contest!

[Legolis]

lol I will have to keep that in mind next time! I think I am caught up now 

[ket_the_jet]

But my favorite by far is playing "Where is Desert Lord?"

Start with begginers level: Far Harad Mercenaries
Then  ... Southron Veterans Piece of cake!
How about Army of Haradrim (AI)? Still easy, Huh?
Wanna pass to intermediate? try Desert Lancers
Time to start to get serious then: Southron Invaders
Super hard: Strength in Numbers
And if you find him here i will buy you a donnut! Flanking Attack

Just had to bring that back since we are talking about the ambushers.

What, at all, did this add to the thread?

Wikkie, I'm going to go a set at a time and only go up to ten. I'm only doing this so that my insert, criticizing Yanko's insert, is not perceived as spam and does move the topic in its original intended direction. Everyone's a moderator now.

Fellowship of the Ring:
Flavor: Worry - I think the picture fits the card title and the results can be devastating. One of the underrated cards of Fellowship block.
Theme Decks: The White Arrows of Lorien - Another card built for a specific deck. Every time I see this card (as an opponent) I know to expect a long game.
Picture: The Witch-King, Lord of Angmar - I don't think the card is too great, but it's your namesake so why not?

Wanted to add something else, but I was too lazy. Just wanted to point out you were missing the point of the thread, no reason to hate.

Anyway, going in order, from FOTR

Picture: this was a hard one, since there are some great pics here, but I decided to go with The Irresistible Shadow. The pic, in combination with the title, makes for a very dramatic design, showing Frodo getting tempted.

Flavor: Another hard one, but I looked at Arwen, Daughter of Elrond, and while not the most playable, it's very flavorful, since it's the only time she actually fights, so it's good for a scene in which she's fighting Nazguls.

PITD: Think I'll go with Gandalf, Friend of the Shirefolk. As you said, it's a card that's almost useless in general decks of his culture, but it's great in multi-cultural or Pipeweed decks.

I didn't miss the point of the thread as much as temporarily ignored it.

WK, here are my Mines of Moria picks:
Theme Decks: Uruk Captain - I don't know if you like Uruks, but he makes them pretty playable.
Picture. Gandalf, the Grey Pilgrim - Probably the best Gandalf to splash in a Movie Block deck. I'm sure your actual favorite picture is one of the two Balrogs.
Flavor: Gondor Will See It Done - Can't think of a deck that uses it, but it's a sweet picture and I guess it could have some use in a deck that wants to avoid Shotgun Enquea.

I expected you were going only sets 1-10 ket, so that's fine to me. Everyone else who's in the contest or wants to join, just put the 3 cards you think might be in those categories! I won't comment those comments above until some more comments were added, so just come and join this contest!

Realms of the Elf Lords:
Theme Deck: Hate and Anger
Picture: Boromir, Defender of Minas Tirith
Flavor: The Horn of Boromir

Look forward to your PM.
