I like it. You know, if you wanted to, you could probably make it un-unique.
Done.

Exert a Dwarf twice that is damage +X to reinforce X tokens. That Dwarf loses all damage bonuses until the regroup phase.
Perhaps a little bit harsh. I think that with the twilight cost and the loss of bonuses for a while, you could make it just one exertion.
I lowered the twilight cost to 1. I wanted to keep it at 2 exertions, since some Dwarves can get very high damage bonuses, which could really reinforce a ton of tokens.

I think this would be a perfect candidate for some toil. I’d up the cost to  , make it spot 2 Dwarves, and add in a toil 1. It just has that flavor to it, at least to me.
Sounds good.
Thanks for the reviews! I think I’m done posting DCs for today - 12 is a lot, and I need to work more on finishing the card titles of a couple cultures.

Next up: Orcs! The  culture is very large in this set: 26 cards. It’ll have 2 main strategies. Strategy #1 is site control. Strategy #2 is Ring-bearer hate, and will be included in a starter deck.
Let’s start off with strategy #2.
 •Morgul Commander
Minion • Orc
Strength: 10
Vitality: 3
Site Number: 4
While the Ring-bearer is exhausted, minions cannot take wounds.
While you cannot spot any other minions, this minion cannot take wounds.
(this guy likes to live.  )
•Dark Host
Condition • Support Area
Each time you play an minion, you may remove and exert an minion to exert the Ring-bearer.
Skirmish: Discard this condition to make an minion strength +1 for each wound on the Ring-bearer (and damage +1 if the Ring-bearer is exhausted).
(pretty much a staple card in the new decktype.)
Morgul Footman
Minion • Orc
Strength: 6
Vitality: 1
Site Number: 4
Regroup: Exert another minion, discard this minion, and remove to wound the Ring-bearer.
(weak stats, but he can pack a punch if he somehow survives till regroup! he also makes a nice combo with Morgul Comander.)
 Morgul Banner
Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength +1
Bearer must be an minion.
Each time bearer wins a skirmish, you may spot 2 wounds on the Ring-bearer to make each minion strength +1 until the regroup phase.
(made in the manner of Banner of Isengard and Banner of the Eye.) |

Lucky for you, we’re home sick from church this morning (and my wife is sleeping), so you get a review.

Sounds good. Let’s get this show on the road!

Yes, he does indeed.  Seems balanced, though.

I can see why it’s a staple. This card and the Morgul Commander make a very powerful new strategy all by themselves! Maybe, just maybe, it would be better to remove and a threat for the RB exertions, just so it doesn’t get TOO out of hand.

I can’t find the Ravager, but I like the punch he can pack, yeah.

Nice. Just like the old-school banners from the Two Towers days. Good stuff. |

That’d normally be a good cost... but these minions won’t have any way to add threats, so the ability would really be able to be used. Instead, I’ll make it also exert an minion.

Whoops, meant the Morgul Commander. Right before I posted these cards I changed the title from Ravager to Commander, and I just forgot to edit that part. 
Thanks for the reviews!

In that case, yes, it’s a good combo. Easy way to keep the Footman alive until he really comes in useful. |

More Ring-bearer hatin’.

Overmatched

Maneuver: Heal the Ring-bearer three times to return bearer to its owner’s hand.
 Morgul Plunderer

You could probably say ’Morgul Marcher is strength +3’. It would work the same way.

I think there should be a limit of one per bearer. Otherwise, good.

Perfect, although it should be if he is skirmishing an unbound companion, in my opinion.

Honestly, I think you could drop the cost to 0. Either way though. Nice card. |

I wanted to keep it at , so that you couldn’t play 4 copies of this from your discard pile for free. |
