Hello
This was my last deck before stop playing lotr.

Boromir, Bearer of Council   
Faramir, Captain of Gondor   
Aragorn, Strider   
Denethor, Lord of Minas Tirith   
The One Ring, Answer To All Riddles   

Elendil, The Tall    x3
Gandalf, Leader of the Company   x3
Sapling of the White Tree   x4
Narsil, Blade of the Faithful   x2
Scroll of Isildur   
Ring of Barahir   
Duty of Two   x2
Out of the High Airs   x2
Terrible and Evil   x2
Tom Bombadil, The Master   x2
Grown Suddenly Tall   x2
One Whom Men Would Follow   x3
Noble Leaders   x2
Hidden Knowledge   x2
Houses of Healing   
Heirs of Gondor   

The story is that when you reach site 3 you play your entire free ppl part from your draw deck due denethors loop, the opponents draws half his deck on the third site (break his deck balance) and you move to the 4th site (no more than one minion can be asighn to each skirmish). Its not difficult for me to do the 3-6, 6-9 with this one.

That is nifty, Smiley, but how are you going to ensure the site? I mean, if you walk ahead, you're in the hands of your opponent. Maybe add a traveled leader, or well-traveled? And you can take only 4 cards in hand, but still, that is 8 potential extra cards.

I bid burdens to ensure that the opponent moves first and meet the requirements of tom bombandil. So i am the one that put site 4.  Why i can take only 4 cards in hand?

that is the rule of 4....page 4/22 CRD:

Some card effects allow you to draw cards in the fellowship phase. You cannot draw (or take into hand) more than 4 cards during your fellowship phase. This is referred to as The Rule of 4.

They could find e better way to stop loops, card drawing is more than attractive in any card game.
probably this is a new rule...

You can draw as many cards as you like in manuever, skirmish, archery, regroup though..

It may be obvious to us, but you still could be a little more polite. I didn't know about the rule (along with many others) before coming to this board, and we all had to learn it at some point.

Sharpen Your Swords would be nice for this one, though that does run the risk of making the deck too Gandalf dependent, I suppose.

I don't see Sharpen Your Swords as an advantage over Servant of the Secret Fire. Servant of the Secret Fire can work for anyone and you get more overwhelms by making your opponent's strength go down than yours going up.

True, but Sharpen Your Swords will do almost as well if you don't have the rares to spare. XD I know all my Servant of the Secret Fire cards are decked.

I'm afraid your opponent doesn't have to draw cards for Denethor's action (it's a "may" action).
