Welcome to my... most horrible theme ever deck! Since FFG didn't give us a Scouring the Shire scenario, i've decided to do it myself using the Long Expected Party Cards to really bring the horrible idea to life!

The Last Alliance This card is the glue that holds my Hobbits and Isengard teams together! This is almost entirely going to be used to help Saruman become the best leader the Hobbits have ever had, used to get him such nice things as Friend of Friends and Fast Hitch. Once Saruman is properly established as Sharkey (and able to quest/fight/defend thanks to the Hitch's) you can use the contract to um.... feed Grima with Good Meal.

Threat Focus While Saruman is getting the Hobbits into orderly fashion, try and get him Saruman's Staff as quickly as possible. This deck has very little threat reduction, so his staff is essential for mitigating all of the doomed cards that he can role out. Mulligan for a staff or for Word of Command to get properly setup.

Hahaha! Saruman becoming Friend of Friends with Tom Cotton has to be one of the funniest things I've seen yet with this contract!

Wow. Very well done. I find myself liking it and hating it at the same time.

nice idea. would perhaps ad some Elevenses or The Shirefolk, yes they only reduce by 1 but that 1 can be important. consider Herald of Anórien the most hobbitallies cost 2

I suggest you add Helm of Secrecy to change Grima into a hobbit late game. Because, you know, you are what you eat

I think Gríma is just thankful for the lack of Hobbit Archers in the deck.

Mar 30, 2021 Truck 1409

I agree with Seastan.

@doomguard some odd parts of this deck and the contract make those cards not work. I can't have allies that are bit isengard or hobbits. I also will never have all hobbits so shirefolk can't be used.

Mar 30, 2021 doomguard 1963

you can. use the contract choose shirefolk as card (then there stands ...if each of your heros is hobbit or isengard...) and then u can use it.

@doomguardIt says to replace A with B, so I think it would replace the shirefolk card to say All Isengard instead of hobbits, which I also don't meet.

Mar 30, 2021 Seastan 42105

@pconnors Take not of the quotation marks. You replace "A" with "A or B".

Ok thks, but in future we can buy it ¿

Mar 31, 2021 Seastan 42105

@serpico Not in a store. It's a free fan expansion. You can obtain it through the above link that pconnors shared.

Mar 31, 2021 serpico 262

Ok clear. But do you have a suggestion on how i can print doing a good job? Thanks for help

Mar 31, 2021 Seastan 42105

@serpico Yes, there is a guide on the website: www.alongextendedparty.com

Are you a non-native english speaker? Because the cards are going to be translated into several different languages and those will be available soon.

@Seastan, @serpico is Italian, he said so in one of his decks.

Mar 31, 2021 Seastan 42105

Ok, well, an Italian translation is in the works!

Bravi ragazzi:)

Serpico, abbi fede, manca poco per la traduzione in italiano

Sting seems like it would be perfect for Saruman.
