Gandalf's Noble Hunters - Saga Campaign 3.0

• Versions
• 3.0
• 2.0
• 1.0

This is made for Land of Shadow in the LOTR Saga campaign. Gandalf received the Noble Hero and Leader of Men boons. Important to note since there some attachments that won't work on Gandalf otherwise.

This is a pretty straightforward 3 hunters deck. Get 2 restricted attachments out on each hero ASAP for the willpower boost. Open the Amory to help find more Prioritize giving defensive attachments to Denethor so he can defend easily. Attack boosts on Glorfindl. Gandalf can take anything but generally want attack or willpower boosting.

One trick is to play Armored Destrier and Silver Circlet using Gandalf's ability to attach them to him if needed. Then he has the appropriate resource icon.

Heir of Mardil is meant for Gandalf as it will let him ready after questing thanks to Leader of Men.

Minor changes from 2.0

Added

• 2 Asfaloth
• 2 Steed of Imladris
• 3 Elrond's Counsel

Removed

• 3 Campfire Tales
• 2 We Are Not idle

The first quest in Land of Shadow is very location and threat heavy. Elrond's Counsel helps both boost willpower and lower threat. Also easy to play from the top of my deck. Steed and Asfaloth provides some location control options. Steed does not really get many cards for its ability until mid to late game. Power of Orthanc is definitely being subbed in for Shelob's Lair.
