Re: Which sets are best for ARDA?

I'm not exactly sure why [ there aren't Dragon Ahunts in the GG Arda deck ] but they are pretty punishing, especially if all 9 [ Dragon cards ] were there and everyone was playing them, and they last for 4-5 "player turns". So maybe that is why. There are lots of permanent events. And wit...

I'm not exactly sure why but they are pretty punishing, especially if all 9 were there and everyone was playing them, and they last for 4-5 "player turns". So maybe that is why. There are lots of permanent events. And with everyone playing hazards they can really start to stack up because...

Re: Which sets are best for ARDA?

I was told that the hazards were fine tuned over time. You'll see that most creatures are orcs, trolls or men. And the events are geared towards those creatures. These hazards are just simpler and easier to play. And with the all event boosters, they are not worthless. Interesting stuff. Yes I see ...

Re: Which sets are best for ARDA?

Ah thanks for the links, really useful! I'll be using the GG deck as the basis of a canon deck.

Any reason why Dragons Ahunt are not used in the GG deck, only Dragons and Dragons at Home? Just caught my eye as an interesting stipulation.

Re: Which sets are best for ARDA?

For Arda, you're better off buying a bulk lot of extras from somebody than you are buying sealed product. Most of the cards you want for Arda are not all that expensive -- most will be from The Wizards with various additions from The Dragons and Dark Minions -- and generally should be easily availa...

This is the Arda forum :D

Good answer though, So each player gets their own draw deck of around 50-ish random cards? I like that solution!

Stacking the Cards of Larger Decks

So I'm curious, does anyone have any preferred or special way of stacking their cards so they don't fall over? Some kind of 3d-printed 600 card dispenser? Or do we just put out a proportion of the cards? Or set them out in several smaller stacks any one of which can be drawn from? :)

Re: Which sets are best for ARDA?

Hi there! Just only now jumping into this game and wanting to go the whole Arda, rather than play the 'regular' game, largely because I'm a boardgamer by nature and deckbuilding is a waste of life :D I was thinking of getting the 10 Challenge decks from Gwaihir as a base for the Arda decks for a few...
