I don’t know. The ability to stop condition discarding seem really powerful. Maybe make it cost 2 tokens and an exertion...

This is sorta weak. It’d be cool to add the "discard this condition (or two cards from hand)." on this one. |

Move the "(except a wraith)" to be in front of " companion". Great card otherwise, I like the add to attach it to a companion instead of paying the aid cost.

Ok are you giving Followers races? I’d drop the "(except a wraith)" part. I’d make the maneuver action a regroup action.

Same concern about Followers having races. Definately make it "...exert a companion and...", just wouldn’t make sense to have Pippin or Rosie Cotton prevent a condition from being discarded.

Ok we’ll just assume you get rid of the races on the followers unless that really is what you’re doing. Pretty good otherwise!

Neat-o. You’ve got some good ideas with these conditions, no doubt about that. The Followers having races still bugs me. |

My followers don’t have races...in the Underdwellers set, I had a few of the Undead as followers...and each of them had the keyword "Wraith".
Thanks for the reviews! I’ll make changes soon, but I have to go now... |

Okay, now you get a couple of followers for your patient time!
•Forlong, Lord of Lossarnach
Follower
Vitality: +1
Aid- Remove a token.
To play, spot 2 men.
Response: If bearer wins a skirmish, exert him to discard an exhausted minion.
"...a man of wide shoulders and huge girth, but old and grey-bearded, yet mail-clad and black-helmed and bearing a long heavy spear."
R
•Outlands Company
Follower
Resistance: +2
Aid- Remove a token.
While you can spot 2 rangers, bearer is strength +2, and each time he wins a skirmish, you may exert him to reinforce a token.
"...marching to defend the City of Gondor in a dark hour..."

Change made. Anyone else, feel free to review the followers.

Each time you transfer Derufin to a companion, you may discard a card from hand to discard a possession.

R
•Duilin, Brother to Derufin

Aid- Remove a token.
Each time bearer wins a skirmish, you may exert bearer to exert a minion.
"...tall Duinhir with his sons, Duilin and Derufin, and five hundred bowmen."
R

Each time a companion bearing a follower wins a skirmish, you may reinforce a token.
At the start of the regroup phase, exert a man or discard this condition.

"he or she" and "him or her", just to be PC. I’d make it cost or .

The second sentence should be on a new line, but that’s the only "problem" I see. |
