"Fangorn! What madness drove them in there?"

Gimli in The Lord of the Rings, The Two Tower


Merry & Pippin make an escape through Fangorn while the Rohirrims charge the ennemy

Strengths: Low starting threat, threat management, ennemy clearing on staging area

Weaknesses: Resource management, questing dependent on Allies

Basically the hobbits Smoke Rings, while DĂșnhere and the Ents deal with the ennemy !


This thematic deck can be improved by including cards outside of the Hobbits archetype, feel free to share your ideas, respecting the theme or not!

This deck looks like a lot of fun. I'd love to give it a go sometime. I'd probably up Bilbo and the Pipes up to 3 x each. If I get a second Bilbo in hand I'd chump with the 1st and play him again for an extra pipe. How does this go in quests starting with an engaged enemy? I imagine it'd struggle to get off the ground fast.

Hey @Marctimmins89!

Thanks for your interest, I agree that having x3 of Bilbo Baggins might prove useful: I'd probably withdraw the other 2 unique hobbit allies ..? Or maybe just Sam Gamgee and 1 Daeron's Runes.

I haven't been able to test it against such quests, as it would need to have a 22 enemy from the start.

I've found that the key is to start with at least 1 Spear of the Mark in your starting hand, this way you can start to manage things quite easily hitting an enemy for 5 in the staging area from turn 1 is quite ridiculous !

Anyway, let me know if you test it and how it went and if you had fun !
