Description

Hello,

Here is a fellowship to use the maximum of the new Wose !

Ghân-buri-Ghân brings some locations so I wanted to build him with Woodmen.

We will have a lot of encounter cards with guarded attachments, locations with Ghân-buri-Ghân but we manage these cards with a lot of traps and locations help us to draw with Haldan, to boose Woses...0

The lore deck will be in secrecy and we will have 4 so Woses will be full boosted.

The Bof deck will play a lot of good allies thanks to Elf-stone.

With Ranger Spikes, we will have a big Bilbo Baggins to quest a max.

Drû-buri-Drû with Damrod is super fun, we draw each time we move a trap :)

Have fun !

would consider Erebor Hammersmith perfect to recycle used traps.

why does Ranger Spikes boost Bilbo Baggins?

i am not a fan of guarded attachments, except of The Riddle-game or some tricks to get ist fast.

Yes he is nice but I want to try all the Wose and archetype and I have no slot for him.

Because I can let ennemies in staging thanks to traps and it boost Bilbo's willpower.

Yes with Bilbo Baggins and A Burglar Indeed! it's very fast. Ennemies go into my traps so they are easy to manage and Widfast is incredible for locations. They can even help the Woodmen.

hoe does the trap boost Bilbo Baggins willpower? he does not get the printet thread of the enemy, so it stay the same, with or without the trap, yes? the pinning is right, but the increase of willpower i cannot see.

It's not huge but if you have a big threat ennemy, like 4 threat, Ranger Spikes let him in staging and Bilbo Baggins has 2 more willpower.

Without him maybe you would like to engage this ennemy...

seems we do not come to an understanding, i think bilbo do not get more wp because of the trap. he get willpower +4 without trap and only +2 with trap (but there is also 2 less thread in the staging area). so ist the same score regarding wp. and yes you avoid engaging (thats why i said "pinning") but keep it in the staging is not more wp to bilbo. so, the "boost" on bilbo is not there, thats all i said.

My english is bad sorry.

This ennemy in staging without Bilbo would be 4-2=2, with Bilbo he counts as 0.

So Bilbo brings 2 willpower in this case.

Apr 22, 2026 doomguard 2481

yes, and bilbo without trap get u +4 wp ;) so same in the end, regarding wp

The trap let the ennemy in staging area, starting with 40 threat I have to engage everything otherwise and I can't do Bilbo's capacity.

cornercase, but understood.

Drû-buri-Drû can also bounce Ranger Spikes around, so Bilbo Baggins can soften enemies up before engaging, though due to the end of phase restriction that doesn't really help boost his

Super cool fellowship! Well done. What are your thoughts on adding a third hand based around Contract: The Burglar's Turn. You could do some real shenanigans with moving locations from active to staging and get some more great attachments out! I have one with Denethor, Éowynm Mirlonde, which I might try out!

Thank you :) Yes it's a great idea. I almost never play 3P but if you do it would be nice, with a lot of interactions between the players.

Maybe change a little the Bilbo Baggins deck, because it already plays guarded attachments. Maybe just cut Bilbo Baggins and his cards.
