I have been toying with a Prince Imrahil deck for awhile. His ability is fun and interesting , but it always seemed to revolve around giving trait attachments (Elf-friend,Prince of Dol Amroth). Instead, I chose to focus on his natural warrior trait.

Unless absolutely dire, I never use Imrahil's resource outside his ability. With 30 allies, it hasn't missed once for me yet. Mablung's engagement ability compensates for Imrahil nicely, sometimes even having a surplus. Thats why I have a copy of Song of Kings, to help cover leadership cost. Amarthiúl was my original 3rd hero but testing showed I needed sentinel immediately, so it brought me to Erkenbrand. With his own shadow cancellation and Armored Destrier he can tank and cancel 3 attacks a turn. Dúnedain Warning and Dúnedain Remedy give him all the protection he needs.

Allies-wise, I think it's pretty typical. Boromir can usually block a weaker enemy ready and attack, Beorn is a 8 bomb, Legolas draws cards. Envoy of Pelargir is nice here because if you draw her off Imrahils ability she's basically Feint + add a resource.

Last Stand I don't think I've seen in other decks before but it's fun here and sometimes that little bit of direct damage is what you need to get a beefier enemy off you in one turn.

There's some later cards I'd like replace with others like Riddermark Knight, Tireless Hunters, and Secret Vigil.

This is strictly a multiplayer combat deck. Without counting Sneak Attack + Gandalf the most I've seen it muster is 9-11 very late game.

Feel free to post suggestions. I have tested it against 7th level and most of the Heirs of Numenor expansion.

I quite like your inclusion of Last Stand here. An Imrahil deck is of of the rare places where that card starts to make sense. Riddermark Knight is going to be all kinds of fun in this deck.

Great looking deck! Any thoughts on what you would take to accommodate those newer cards you mention? had great fun with all three of those and would love some guidance! Thanks!

I'd drop Envoy of Pelargir for Secret Vigil and Riddermark Knight would replace The Day's Rising. Drop Valiant Sacrifice for Tireless Hunters.

That isn't play test, just what I would try first.

Riddermark Knight would be smaller Beorns. Should keep levels about the same. If you get a chance to try that before me, let me know how it goes.
