Corrupted DCs

I like all of them, Galdriel could really be nasty and great fun!

Secret Counsels
Event - Skirmish
Make a corrupted minion strength +3 (or +4 if you can spot a Free Peoples version of that character.)
"'...The hour grows late, and Gandalf the Grey rides to Isengard, seeking my counsel.'"

That looks good. I'm still not sure a strategy of corrupted minions works for me - I envisaged them each as support for a particular strategy or culture - but whatever.

•Ted Sandyman, The Miller's Son
Minion - Hobbit
Strength 5
Vitality 4
Site 8
Corrupted. Lurker. Muster.
When you play Ted Sandyman, you may exert him to replace the fellowship's current site.
Skirmish: Exert Ted Sandyman to make a corrupted minion strength +1.
Not all hobbits were kindly folk, and some willingly aided Sharkey's usurpation of the Shire.

Seems fine.

•Galadriel, Elf-Witch SH
Minion - Elf
Strength 5
Vitality 3
Site 6
Corrupted.
When you play Galadriel, you may add up to 2 threats.
Maneuver: Exert Galadriel and remove a threat to add a burden. The Free Peoples player may discard a card at random from his or her hand to prevent this.
"'In place of a Dark Lord, you would have a Queen! Not dark, but beautiful, and terrible as the dawn!'"

Seems good. But I'd like something like on your Saruman which requires her to be played only after the fellowship has been a little corrupted.

Treacherous as the Sea SH
Event - Maneuver
Exert a corrupted minion (or spot Galadriel) to add for each burden you can spot.
"'All shall love me and despair!'"

Seems fine.

Well, looks like people have already figured out *most* of my upcoming minions....
A few of those (ie, Theoden) I hadn't actually thought of. I threw together a Theoden real quick that I think is pretty good, and I'll get him up soon enough. For now, I'm just making a few minor modifications on the ones above, and posting a new batch.

There's a reason why I made the Frodo and Sam culture, mostly being that I really wanted to see more minions. Actually, that Frodo was what got me started on the the corrupted minions in the first place....

Okay, for the next four, including one minion that you might or might not have seen coming: Ted Sandyman.

Needs a slightly higher cost or less of a bonus
