I've been playing this game since the very beginning, but now it's finally time to embark on a twenty quest-long saga extravaganza!

I'm a little concern that the current cardpool will make some of these quests a bit trivial so I decided to go with a more thematic approach to deckbuilding instead of going full-on powergaming. That said, with Gaffer Gamgee, Rosie Cotton and The Shirefolk into the mix, thematic can be quite powerful indeed.

I also decided to maximize consistency with this build. The deck doesn't lack card draw, and with 3 copies of most of it's key pieces it should be able to setup rapidly.

For newer players: don't hesitate to swap some of the more thematic cards for powerful staples. Replace Old Toby for Warden of Healing, make room for a couple of Arwen Undómiel, add the Daeron's Runes.

Onward to adventure!
