More Virtual Cards (Cruel Caradhras, take II)

[lem0nhead]

Forests of Lothlorien

Gees that awful..... *Shudders*...

[Thranduil]

(See next page for Forests of Lothlorien (V))

You know, I don't think I'd ever even seen that card before!

Any other suggestions?

Thranduil

[sickofpalantirs]

but if you had four of those you could clean up on minion every regroup...

Forests of Lothlórien (V)

Plays to your support area.

3 V 15
Thranduil

I guess...not particularly useful, but neither is it unuseful...

[lem0nhead]

Its heck of a lot better than the original. And a rare? Sheesh.

[Thranduil]

While on the subject of followers, here are some old allies in their new form - and after all, this is the Last Homely House!

"'My heart tells me that Sauron will expect us to take the Western way, when he learns what has befallen. He soon will.'"
3 V 18

Some more next time, I think.

[lem0nhead]

First and last are good, dont see the point in the second guy. Not exactly useful.

[Thranduil]

What about Erestor now?

Thranduil

[lem0nhead]

Nah didnt need something adding i just meant the current text needs channging as it aint even that useful in telepathy decks,

[sickofpalantirs]

it should be exert bearer twice on slinde IMSO
others are fine

[Thranduil]

Well, here are some more followers then:

• Golradir, Councilor of Imladris (V)
Follower
Str: +1
Aid - exert an Elf.
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may transfer Golradir to your support area to take an event into hand from your discard pile.
3 V 20

• Saelbeth, Elven Councilor (V)
Follower
Str: +1
Aid - discard an card from hand.
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may transfer Saelbeth to your support area to heal bearer.
3 V 25

• Elrond, Lord of Rivendell (V)
Follower
Str: +2
Aid - .
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may transfer Elrond to your support area to play an follower from your discard pile.
Regroup: Exert bearer or transfer Elrond to your support area to heal another companion.
"He was the Lord of Rivendell and mighty among Elves and Men."
1 V 40

For the Rivendell allies, I tried to avoid giving them 'skirmishable' abilities and provided more of a capacity to support and heal. For the Lórien allies, it will be much the reverse.

Thranduil

[lem0nhead]

The first two can be cut to cost 1 and elrond needs the first line removing then hes fine.

[DáinIronfoot]

• Golradir, Councilor of Imladris (V)
Follower
Aid - exert an Elf
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may transfer Golradir to your support area to take an event into hand from your discard pile.
3 V 20

Don't forget: Aid statements still end with a period. I LOVE this otherwise, though. Just what my Point Blank Range deck needs....

• Saelbeth, Elven Councilor (V)
Follower
Aid - discard an card from hand
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, you may transfer Saelbeth to your support area to heal bearer.
3 V 25

Same note on the aid statement here. I like it otherwise, though.

• Elrond, Lord of Rivendell (V)
Follower
Str: +2
Aid -
Each time Elrond is transferred to a companion, you may spot an Elf to play an follower from your discard pile.
Regroup: Exert bearer or transfer Elrond to your support area to heal another companion.
"He was the Lord of Rivendell and mighty among Elves and Men."
1 V 40

That first statement is WAY too good. Imagine that with one of the Horns! I'd AT LEAST require that to exert bearer, and/or limit it to bearers. Regroup ability is good, though.

[Thranduil]

Let's please ignore the horns when dealing with these virtual followers - they are basically and completely broken! If I ever get to T & D, be sure that I will remake them! 

Thranduil

[sickofpalantirs]

Well, here are some more followers then:

Thranduil

cut cost to 3, and strength boost to 1, add a resistance boost.

[Thranduil]

I also haven't called these 'virtual cards' without reason: I CAN'T CHANGE THE TWILIGHT COST!

Just thought I'd put it in capitals so that no one will miss it!

Any suggestions therefore that don't require a change in twilight cost?
