= General Strategy =

The Prancing Pony is a classic choice of site 1 in Fellowship Block. Any deck using Aragorn can benefit from this site, so if your deck centres around him, you can bid some burdens to play him straight from deck at the beginning of the game, instead of relying on drawing him. This is particularly advantageous because Aragorn's twilight cost is so high, and starting with him alone leaves you with too few companions. If you are bidding for this site, be sure to have some burden removal (e.g. Sam, Son of Hamfast), and remember that the site adds an additional burden when it is used. Be wary of bidding more than 4 burdens, as this leaves you vulnerable to Ulaire Enquea, LoM a common minion in most decks. Despite the incredible potency of this site, it can be a bit of a double edged sword - if your opponent has Aragorn in their deck, they can also use the site, so one possible strategy is to bid high and deny this site to your opponent, rather than try to play it. Also, if you use Aragorn but don't depend on him, you needn't bid too high, as many opponents will play this site for you.
