Downside of Ents: Enter play exhausted. Faramir readies allies when you engage enemies. I sense a combo here! Mablung and Pippin also both trigger off engagement to get you more resources and cards.

Errand-rider allows you to shuttle Faramir's resources away since all the Ent cards are and . He can also use Sneak Attack Gandalf and help pay for Treebeard. Dúnedain Hunter lets you engage an enemy during the Planning phase, which gets you extra cards and resources while you're actively making use of them, including it can give you the fourth resource you need for Treebeard. Can get an extra ready out of an Ent as well. Now, even with readying from Faramir, Ents are still a little slow to really get going, but once they do, there's not much that can stop them.

Does it not affect things that Dúnedain Hunter's text says to find an enemy and "put it into play engaged with you"? Does that still count as engagement for the purposes of the heroes' abilities? I had gotten the idea that maybe it didn't. Is that wrong?

What about swapping Wealth of Gondor in for Man the Walls, given that two of your three characters are Gondor? Granted, the latter lets you pay for lore allies, but of course the money from Wealth lets you pay for any type of cards — and you do have three Errand-riders in the deck.

An enemy which is put into play engaged with you has engaged you and triggers abilities as such.

Man the Walls is more useful in multiplayer when it provides more than 1 resource of benefit. In solo it's a decent candidate to be subbed out but there are many other things I'd consider replacing it with before Wealth of Gondor (like anything in the sideboard, for example).
