And here’s the brave and valiant men of Gondor!
DCers:
AC
Gagnut
Rare Count:
3R, 2U, 3C
Okay, we don’t have that many cards to work with, so you’ve got a few options. The first one is to enhance Rangers, who are already powerful. You might decide to give them more skirmish events or healing.
The second is to try and bring back the knights of Gondor, or at least some heavy fighters, like Denethor and Aragorn.
Finally, you could toy around with the idea of bringing back  wraiths as followers, with a threat-based Aid cost! This would be an especially cool idea, but I don’t know if we’ve got enough cards to pull it off.
Or you could just do something totally different. Captain would be something you’d probably see here, as well as one or two steeled, perhaps? |

| I like the ranger idea. Gagnut, do you still want to work on this? With only 8 cards, it’s harder to split the culture, but we can still work something out. |

Gagnut has dropped out (got this info by PM), so I’ll go solo on this culture. As stated before, the strategy for this culture will be Rangers. They will work well against roaming minions.
Cardlist coming soon! |

While at a forest site, bearer is an archer.

Hmm...he approaches the strength of a berserker, really, due to Madril, Defender of Osgiliath...limit it, perhaps, to +4? Not that you’d have that many minions over 3 Vitality.

Good and basic.

Good, the only thing I would change is to make the ability read "...or to discard..."
Hard Handstrokes

C
Nice! Reword the ability to say "If he wins that skirmish..."
Good work so far! |

Yeah, limit +4 sounds good.

If I had mentioned the skirmish itself, then yes I would say that skirmish. But since I hadn’t ever mentioned the skirmish, I have to say this skirmish. See New Errand for an example.

Last 4:
Ithilien Ambush
Event • Response
If a minion is played in the Shadow phase, exert a ranger to suspend that phase. Begin a skirmish phase involving that minion and that ranger; that minion is roaming until the end of the skirmish. When it ends, resume the suspended phase.
R
Ranger’s Spear
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +1
Resistance +1
Bearer must be a ranger.
Each exhausted minion skirmishing bearer is roaming, unless that minion bears a hand weapon.
C
Walk Unseen
Event • Maneuver
Spot a ranger at a forest site. Until the regroup phase, that ranger is steeled and the minion archery total is -2.
U
•Window of the Sunset
Condition • Support Area
To play, spot 2 rangers.
While the fellowship is at any site 6, each companion is resistance +3 and is steeled.
Skirmish: Discard this condition to exert a minion.
