Ok so this culture is obviously going to be split between the wraiths and the gondorian soldiers so there will be those 2 main themes.
The wraith culture is going to work off cards removed from the game. Ive not made the others yet so who knows!
Here are the first bumper crop ofspoilers.
• Halbarad, Dúnadan of the North
Companion • Man
Strength: 7
Vitality: 3
Resistance: 7
Ranger.
While the fellowship is balanced, Halbarad gains Guardian 1 (While you can spot more minions than companions, Halbarad gains defender +1).
Assignment: Exert Halbarad and assign a minion to him. Shadow players cannot play skirmish events during that skirmish.
"Of all joys this is the least expected!"
R
Gondorian Star
Possession • Brooch
Resistance: +1
Bearer must be an unbound man.
Response: If you have just played an event (except in the fellowship phase), discard this possession to place that event on top of your draw deck instead of in the discard pile.
"...each cloak was pinned upon the left shoulder by a brooch of silver shaped like a rayed star."
U
• Meeting of the Dúnedain
Condition • Support Area
At the start of each of your turns, you may spot 3 rangers and add to heal a companion.
"’Here are some of my own kin from the far land where I dwelt."
R
• Roheryn
Possession • Mount
Bearer must be a ranger.
If bearer is Aragorn, each wounded minion skirmishing him cannot use skirmish special abilities.
Skirmish: Exert bearer to exert a minion skirmishing him or her.
"Their horses were strong and of proud bearing, but rough-haired; and one stood there without a rider, Aragorn’s own horse that they had brought from the North..."
R
An Hour Long Prepared
Event • Maneuver
Exert Aragorn X times to make X other men strength +2 until the regroup phase.
"I must go down also to Minas Tirith, but I do not yet see the road."
U
Enjoy. |

A bit of an NPE, but fair enough.

Nice one, but it needs a bearer. I would suggest that it only goes on unbound Men or it could be too powerful.

There needs to be ’, you may’ in between ’turns’ and ’spot’ but nice card. I’d like a discarding ability, however.

Very interesting, but as he’s unique and adds twilight he could easily cost .

Cool, but make it maneuver or it won’t be worth it if you don’t know how many minions there will be.
Oh I have!

Im going to show a few more general cards before i kick into the gondor wraith theme.
• The Seeing-stone of Orthanc
Artifact • Palantir
To play spot Aragorn (or exert a Man).
Fellowship or Regroup: Add to reveal the top card of your deck. If it is a Free Peoples card, you may exert Aragorn to take it into hand. If it is a Shadow card, discard it and the next card of your draw deck.

R
• Narsil, Reforged
Artifact • Hand Weapon
Strength: +2
Vitality: +1
Resistance: +1
Bearer must be Aragorn.
Each time Aragorn wins a skirmish, if the Shadow has ardor, you may exert him to make the Shadow lose ardor.

R

Possession • Hand Weapon
Strength: +2

If bearer has Guardian X, they are damage +X.

Why make a new card? Why not the Seeing-Stone of Orthanc? Interesting card, but it feels weird to me - adding isn’t much of a cost.

Compared to Sword that Was Broken, this is probably fine.

How about guardian X gives damage +X? Then you’d have to increase the cost or reduce the strength, but it would be pretty damn cool.

Definitely too weak. It could remove easily without a cost. If you want it to help with cycling as well, I’d make it remove at least .

No complaints here. Well, okay, just one: you’re missing a comma in there after "balanced". Oh, and one after "companions", which, by the way, also has a misspelled word before it.
Did I say no complaints?

I’d recommend changing the title to Seeing-stone of Orthanc and giving it a subtitle. I also know it’s lengthy, but to avoid confusion, the "it may not be played again" should probably be changed to "The Palantir of Orthanc may not be played". "Free Peoples" should ALWAYS be capitalized, and a comma after "Free Peoples card" and "Shadow card" would be recommended. But this is spiffy, and aside from the nitpicks, I like it a lot.

Capitalize "Shadow". The resistance makes it a tad powerful, but the lack of an ability quite as powerful as other versions makes this okay. One last thing I’d recommend: change the subtitle to Narsil Reforged. Just sounds a little better to me.

Yoiks! Limit it to knights, since that ability is pretty powerful. Blade of Dol Amroth rings better in my old ears, but either way is okay.

Interesting. A tad weak compared to some other cards, but in the right deck, it could provide mucho help with cycling and/or choking. I like it. |
