I wanted [Dwarven] cards, but whatever!

[7]Lurtz, Servant of Isengard (V) [Isengard]
Minion • Uruk-hai
Str: 13
Vit: 3
Sit: 5
Damage +1.
Skirmish: Exert Lurtz to make another Uruk-hai strength +X where X is that Uruk-hai's damage bonus.
Skirmish: Exert Saruman to heal Lurtz.
'"And now... perfected. Grown beyond the height of Men - straight limbed and strong, fearing nothing."'
1 V 127

[2]Arwen, Lady Undómiel (V) [Elven]
Companion • Elf
Str: 6
Vit: 3
Res: 6
While bearing a follower, each minion skirmishing Arwen is strength -2.
Manuever: Discard an [Elven] follower from play to heal another Elf.

Apologies! How about Golden Light on the Land?

That a good one that needs redoing.

How about Lightfootedness. Gotta be one of the most useless cards ever.

Arwen's perfect, but Lurtz seems a tad OP to me. You're looking at AT LEAST a potential +5 boost there, and could easily reach +10 or more. That's a little nuts to me. I would at least limit it to [Isengard] Uruks.
Best regards,
Dáin

Drastically different than the originals, but I like 'em.

uh...shouldn't they stay at least somewhat true to the title/lore/previous card?

They are a different take on the title and lore, but I would say they still stick truly to them.

As for the rules of the previous card, the guidelines in my contest said no: you can change the text to whatever the #$&*@! you want! That's what SWCCG did, and that's what I'm doing!

Both alright but i sense some apathy in those attempts!

How about Relentless, thats such a stupid specific useless card.

I can't believe you'd accuse me of apathy! ;)

(0) Relentless (V) [Moria]
Condition
Plays to your support area.
Bearer cannot take wounds.
Shadow: Discard 2 cards from hand to transfer this condition to a [Moria] Orc.
At the start of the regroup phase, remove [1] and transfer this condition to your support area, or discard bearer.

Woah... way broken as worded.
"I'll absorb all archery on my little orc here, and prevent each of those wounds."

Make it "Bearer cannot take wounds."
Nice.
Forget it. I'm not arguing with the computer anymore to try to get the sig I want....

Nice.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I think I'd require removing a little twilight (just [1], I think) to transfer it back to the support area, too, and/or raise the initial cost to [1] or even [2].

Dáin

One of the main constraints of Virtual Cards is, unfortunately, that the twilight cost can't change. I have nevertheless changed it as suggested in other ways. Good?

And any other suggestions?
