Council of Elrond

Balin Dwarf-lord has been given charge of the Ered Luin. He will wipe away the filth in Cardolan and its Troll Warlord. Many folk will come under Balin's banner: Men of Forochel, Rangers of the North, Elves of Lindon, and the Petty-dwarves. Balin himself will travel in the Under-deeps seeking for th...

Thranduil has taken his new fame and decided to leverage it in his new mission. He and his kin will use their woodland skill to drive back the evil creatures of Mirkwood and rally the Free Peoples. He will play 8 factions and token once Towers Destroyed. He will take Well Aimed and be master of wood...

Folks still read this document. Yes, I am reading it now and regularly.

Thank you for the work involved and the "attitude" in the instructions, which aid in understanding
the rules.

May your beard grow long and your beer always be cold.

This is Galadriel's deck. She is one of the few players with a palantir. She will use the Palantir of Annuminas to fetch sage resources such as Secret Entrance and Marvels Told. One of her companies will harass minions west of the Anduin. Her main goal is to store Fate of the Ithel-stone. This requi...

Thank you.

This is Radagast's deck. [update: 07.2017] His hazard opponent is Bolg. His hazard deck, at the moment, is Plant/Animals with grey agents. The resource deck has changed somewhat. Wose characters are now prominent along with that race's resources. Grey Agents are in the deck too. Resource Skin-change...

Dumb question. I searched for this card's name to find an answer; no luck. I did read about the topic of Let it DQ, World Gnawed... BRIDGE - Short-event (U) Playable at the end of the movement/hazard phase on a company that moved to a Haven. That company may move to an additional site on the same tu...

Elrond is the shock troop player. With natural high body values, proximity to Angmar, and nothing else to do since this Elf enjoys life, what better strategy then to polish those elvish blades and hack away? His hazard theme is Roadblock. Goldberry will help him move with those hazards in play. He w...

Hi. I have posted Cirdan the Shipwright's deck. He will be a seafaring elf on archeological projects at Ruins. He will send elves to specifically influence minion (agent) elves in play. He will guard the Southwestern Coast of Middle-Earth. The avatar will mostly stay at Grey Havens for the first dec...

I agree with RPG, but my comment was not directed as such. Targeting hazard creatures based on movement like I mentioned before
indicates a higher level of strategy on both sides. Not everyone sees it has joy to win in four or less turns.

I have a different view. I say "No" to the use of Pledge of Conduct. I do not remember that transferring items was possible during the Council. If you cannot normally transfer an item during the council then you cannot "automatically" transfer an item either. The text assumes you are able to transfe...

This is a nice debate to read. I personally do not like the on-guard option. I feel it slows the game down, but I play for theme-style purposes. I feel that hazards should be played in order of the region and types. As if you play Ambusher on a company from Rivendell to Bag End then you cannot play ...

I say that the hobbit characters only apply to the bonus for Ents of Fangorn faction. Due to the fact that the "Hobbits" faction has "Hobbits" has a modification. WARNING: Infinite loop ahead!!! Also, some METW factions has "Men" as a modification. Is that for any "Men of ..." faction. Of course not...

Can you please tell me specifically which cards are making this void? With all the downloading of cards from you site I might get them mixed. Thanks! I know the format is not the best, but there it is. EDIT: oh, the Scroll of Isildur right playable only at Minas Tirith? Well, I see it as that Scroll...

I felt that I need to get these decks out soon. I have yet to work on the hazard deck since my return. Enjoy! [Note that I pasted the file here. The deck had some rewrite cards that should not be used. Thus the comments below may seem odd, but were well placed. That led me to upload the PDF and dele...
