You Snipe, I Scout

Very similar to my sniper decks, but with a more balanced approach to locations versus enemies. There's a pretty good chance the tactics/leadership deck pulls enemies, so it's spirit's job to lower the partner's threat. Further, it will be important to get the pony on Bilbo along with some kind of readying -- fast hitch or unexpected courage. Thalin will also be able to help defend if you can get his ring, which will be huge since about half the cards in the deck are attachments, and very few are unique.
