Looks pretty nice...although "Avenge Our Folk" doesn’t sound very...orc-ish to me. Perhaps something like "Vicious Vengeance"? |

Well, we’ve already got 2 people (PT and myself) making cards, so a 3rd person could make things more difficult. Plus, I think you said earlier you wanted to help with Trolls - PT asked for that already, and he already made the 5 Troll cards that will be in the set.
Sorry!

Actually, Avenge Our Folk came from TTT. I like it a lot better than Vicious Vengeance... your cardtitle has too much alliteration. |

What’s wrong with alliteration???
Rapid Reload-oh, wait...that’s a ridiculously broken card. Well...what about Ring of Rings? Oh, wait...that’s just using "Ring" twice... |

Sheesh, you’re almost as bad as D!
•Armory of Gundabad
Condition • Support Area
Each minion bearing a possession gains hunter 1.
Response: If an hunter loses a skirmish, discard a possession borne by that hunter to prevent all wounds to that minion.

I like this one...except that its action is redundant. According to this card, if a minion has a possession to discard, it’s a hunter anyway. And if it’s a possessionless hunter, it can’t discard a possession. Why not make it a little more interesting, and discard another minion’s possession?
Avenge Our Folk
Event • Skirmish
Make an minion strength +2. If that minion wins this skirmish and is a hunter, you may discard the top card of the Free Peoples player’s draw deck.
Common
Sweet. It’s like Dwarven Axe for minions!
Band of the North
Minion • Orc
Strength: 10

Hunter 2.
Each time this minion wins a skirmish, you may discard the top 2 cards of the Free Peoples player’s draw deck (or 3 if you can spot 3 hunters).
Uncommon
Mmm...fairly powerful here. Compare to Tower Lieutenant, which discards from hand, not from the deck. |

I considered that, but I think it makes more sense to have the minion discard his own possession.

Yes, I kept Tower Lieutenant in mind when making this minion. Discarding from hand is generally a lot more powerful than discarding from deck, so I figured it would mostly balance out (especially since minions in the new cultures can be a bit more powerful than the old old minions - compare Merciless Uruk and Uruk Raiding Party). |

Okay...you might want to reword that, then. For example..."If an minion loses a skirmish, discard a possession borne by that minion to prevent all wounds to it (or is it him?)

Hmm...I’m not sure that discarding from hand is more powerful than deck discarding. When discarding from hand, you do get to see it first, and have more of a chance to play it. With the deck, it could be anything: event, companion, possession, condition, minion...But I see the point about new minions.

Okay, you changed to minion instead of hunter. I’m cool with it.

Cool! discarding would love a card like this! Esp. using cards to recover it.

Looks okay, I like discarding from deck more than hand, unless you throw in something like Desperate Defense of the Ring... then more hand discarding would be good, just to keep a theme. But with Gorbag and other cards, getting rid of the deck seems to be a more prevalent theme here. |

Filled with Malice

•Grishnakh, Foul Orc

When you play Grishnakh, you may spot another minion to discard a card from the top of the Free Peoples player’s draw deck for each Shadow culture you can spot.
Gundabad Blade
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +2
Bearer must be an minion.
At the start of each skirmish involving bearer, the Free Peoples player must exert a companion or discard the top card of his or her draw deck. |
