Old Time Rock and Roll (or Nine-Stone, if you want something shorter) is a multiplayer support deck designed to make as much use of Elf-stone as possible. Talk all your friends into playing high cost allies, because this deck is built to cheat as many into play as possible!

A brief explanation of cards...

Elf-stone. Self explanatory.

Erebor Hammersmith. Elf-stone 4-6.

Second Breakfast. Elf-stone 7-9.

Follow Me! and Message from Elrond allow you to set-up Elf-stone triggers on the player of your choice. You need at least one other Leadership player, although more are welcome. With one other in a four player game, you should be seated opposite one another (You - Someone else - Leadership guy - Someone else). In this case, you can use Message from Elrond to give him Follow Me! during a given turn's combat step, passing the first player token to the next person when the round ends. Through this, you have some measure of control over your Elf-stone uses.

Arwen Undómiel, Théodred, Envoy of Pelargir, Errand-rider, and the group card draw is there because not everyone can get Elf-stone going at all times and after talking your group into playing high cost decks, supplying resources to those with cards stuck in hand is a nice back-up plan.

The rest of the deck pads out some other support options, but are generally flex slots. Note that there are zero unique cards in the deck, excluding Elf-stone. This is to provide the rest of your table with options. If strong allies are excluded from their lists, feel free to run them over things like Ranger of Cardolan.

The entire idea sprang from a desire to find a place for Message from Elrond. This is my end result.
