A Path Less Traveled: Passage of the Marshes

Inkling 70

Description

I have decided to start a variant on the Saga Campaign. Personally, I felt the strict hero requirements for the majority of the official saga campaign to be more frustrating than fun. My main goal is to balance theme with overall fun for playing each of the quests in the saga all while using as many new cards and archetypes as possible.

For the loose attempt at theme I had the Scout Support deck. I imagine the Harad, Silvans and Woodmen noticing the black cloud of Sauron creeping towards their homelands and they all send their best scouts out to do what scouts do best and scout out the area. On their way they encounter Sam and Frodo in the dead marshes! They hide in the background helping Sam and Frodo out through sniping with Haldir, Encounter manipulation with Firyal and location control with Haldan. Lot's of victory display options with this deck as well. The great hunt is a really fun card too. Keen as lances is easily free since ALL locations go to the victory display.

The Super Sam deck is standard basically a beefed up Sam. Rune master isn't unique so doubles could go on lore deck and really accelerate resources. Mariner's compass is fun to exchange locations around that are close to firing on the mire keyword.

This quest turned out really easy or really hard based on how fast Gollum flipped.
