More Virtual Cards (Cruel Caradhras, take II)

[lem0nhead]

Hmm imho its now OP and over complicated.

[Thranduil]

Well, I've had a whole string of possible ideas and settled on something that might work. What do you think?

Thranduil

[AgentDrake]

How about this?

Dwarven Armor (V)
Possession • Armor
Bearer must be a Dwarf.
Each minion skirmishing bearer loses all attribute bonuses from possessions.
Skirmish: Make a Dwarf that is damage +1 lose all damage bonuses until the regroup phase to play this possession from your discard pile on that Dwarf.
The strongest armor still being made in Middle-Earth is forged by the Dwarves. It is so heavy, that only they can bear it.
1 V 8

I dunno. I still think it could be a bit OP, but jsut barely, IMHO.

[Thranduil]

Well, I'm bored of those possessions now, so let's move onto some real Dwarves!

Wow. That's fun. Maybe a little underpowered, perhaps a D+1 bonus?

OP. Auto-recursion for a threat? Elf/Dwarf Archery w/ Gimli + Battle Axe + Hand Axe = 2 arrows from a DWARF?!?!?

Exert Glóin to take tale from your draw deck or discard pile into hand. Is the correct phrasing. He seems strong to me. And maybe remove a dwarf token?

Seems a harsh penalty for 1 event. Dark ways is much better.

[Thranduil]

I was thinking of a limiting factor on Gloin like 'If you have initiative...' or 'If you cannot spot X threats...' etc. Any thoughts on that?

Now I'm going to take a challenge or two (or three). If you have a card from Fellowship block that you'd like a virtual version of, post your request and I'll try to make the card as soon as possible.

Bring it on! 8)

I like lem0n's idea of removing tokens. Short of that, perhaps threats.

Gimli, Dwarf of the Mountain-race. He's X-ed, after all.

[Thranduil]

• Gimli, Dwarf of the Mountain-Race (V)
Companion • Dwarf
Str: 6
Vit: 3
Res: 6
Damage +1. Fellowship.
Fellowship: If the fellowship is at an underground or mountain site, exert Gimli and spot 3 fellowship companions or 2 Dwarves to play the fellowship's next site.
"'In the ruins of the Dwarves, a dwarf's head will be less easy to bewilder than than Elves or Men or Hobbits.'"
2 V 121

How's that for starters?

Thranduil

[DáinIronfoot]

• Gimli, Dwarf of the Mountain-Race (V)
Companion • Dwarf
Str: 6
Vit: 3
Res: 6
Damage +1.
Fellowship: Exert Gimli to play an underground or mountain site next on the site path.
"'In the ruins of the Dwarves, a dwarf's head will be less easy to bewilder than than Elves or Men or Hobbits.'"
2 V 121

Not bad, but the wording seems a little...off. Perhaps instead: "Exert Gimli to play the fellowship's next site if that site is an underground or mountain site". Or perhaps, to keep it simple: "If the fellowship is at an underground or mountain site, exert Gimli to play the fellowship's next site (replacing opponent's site if necessary)."

[sickofpalantirs]

dains' 2nd idea is hereby seconded

Any more requests?
