A fun deck that focuses on Eleanor as both defender and treachery protector of Gondor. Lots of possible opening hands to work from. Best case is probably dropping into secrecy with Elrond's Counsel or Gandalf and getting an early Resourceful in play. This goes on Eleanor to eventually fuel Blood of Numenor. Card draw is vital to get this deck set up, combined with low threat, using Elven Light and Ancient Mathom (and possibly Gandalf). Light Of Valinor helps keep the threat down and questing successful. A splash of tactics with A Good Harvest and Song of Battle to pay for a Gondorian Shield, Citadel Plates, Rivendell Blade and Elven Spear, which is effective for moving Elven Light to the discard pile. Once Eleanor is set up with defense, hit point boost, Unexpected Courage and Hasty Stroke, she's tough. Three out of sphere allies (Boromir, Faramir, and Beorn) can be discarded and brought back with Stand and Fight; these can help with questing, attacking, and buying time for the Eleanor build.
I've created an alternate version that drops 1 Envoy, 1 Test of Will, and 1 Citadel Plate for a Ring of Barahir, Palantir, and Thror's Key (thematic tools and can add up to 3 hp with the Ring). Seems to play similarly - tested on Massing at Osgiliath, Journey Along the Anduin, and the 3 Khazad Dum quests.
