This deck is part of a two-deck Fellowship used to play The Old Forest for the Cardboard of the Rings Quest of the Week.

The Fellowship description contains details of the quest playthrough and campaign mode information.

The Old Forest includes a lot "disruption" type effects and a constant stream of locations, which are necessary to explore in order to advance the quest.

As a campaign deck, the hero choices are were largely already made. For this quest I swapped Círdan the Shipwright in to this deck to help with card draw, and then chose to use the version of Éowyn to have access to that sphere. These heroes also have so much , it was a huge help throughout the quest.

I tried something a little bit experimental with the partner deck, so for this one I tried to keep things more straightforward with solid questing and combat power. Defender of Rammas ended up being my MVP, holding off attack after attack from the those malicious trees.

There are a few pieces of quest specific tech. Dunedain Pathfinder is potentially very strong as a "free" questing ally. This quest forces you to find additional locations if there are too few in play, so if the Pathfinder keeps you over that threashold, he has no downside.

Ride Them Down is included because two out of three enemies in the encounter deck have annoying on-engagement effects, so this can help to avoid those - no problem with the deck's strong questing ability.

The Galadhon Archer in the sideboard was supposed to be in the deck, but I couldn't find my third copy so I swapped in Wolf. This ended up being a great choice, as I was able to make use of both of his abilities.
