Unique. Half-character. If a warrior is in his company, he may draw an extra card each time his company moves. If eliminated, all characters in his company must make a corruption check.

Interesting idea -- I like non-MP characters having cool abilities; it's a shame that such are often reserved for the higher-mind characters.

what i like especialy about frodos suggestion is...the HALF A CHARCTER keyword!

maybe a good idear for some of those low minders...
but only a good idear if we would make more of those characters in the future!!! (because it would be useless otherwise)

its not useless, if you combine them with other half characters (hobbits)

yeah of cause...but untill now that would be quiet limited, because there are only hobbits...

yes, i agree, but such strategy is a bit cheeze... we all know that hobbits are hated by most people

yeah but hobbits are mainly cheesy because there are cards that support scouts and hobbits directly!

but having a worrior that counts half is quiet fun... so you for example could use a big guy and two small ones... and still have hazardlimit of two...
sounds cool but not tooo overpowered!

no? what about a big Warrior, lets say Elrond who can flatter, mixed with many turns and doublings + warrior's stuff... Looks like very strong to me. Playtesting can prove if overpowered or not

Please, no more half-characters than hobbits and orc-scouts.

There are plenty of hl reducing cards out there. This is indeed not only a discussion of overpowered or not, but more cheeze or annoying strategies is certainly not what we aim for with these virtuals.

what's cheesy about half characters?

half characters means less hazard limit, wich means hazard limit reduction resources helps fizzling opponent's hazards, wich means cheeze :D

yes, this is nice for arda, but in constructed it might be very good

I am sometimes amazed what kind of things, you guys think are cheesy...!!! (I'm refering to fizzling hazards...)
