We recently had a 4 person Arda game. Thought I would capture my adventure and share.
So here we go!
DRAFT Phase: Everyone was very happy with their draft options this time, including me. My two big characters were Cirdan and Thorin II. I had no small dwarfs, and no hobbits. The resources in my opening hand included An Unexpected Party (which makes all small dwarves free) and a copy of The Dwarves are Upon You. I also had a copy of Ringlore My treasure hand had the Palantir of Orthanc. That pretty much narrowed down my wizard choice.
So if I was going to go with Cirdan and Thornin, I wanted it to be a 4 mind character with as much force as I could muster. Boromir was the answer. He gets a Shield of Iron-Bound Ash. Thorin wanted the map, but someone drafted his father said no and gave him Cram instead.
