This deck is part of a two-deck Fellowship used to play A Knife in the Dark for the Cardboard of the Rings Quest of the Week.
The Fellowship description contains details of the quest playthrough and campaign mode information.
This quest tasks us with traveling from Bree to Weathertop, ideally avoiding any Nazgûl until the last minute, when confrontation becomes unavoidable. The main feature of the quest is a number of nasty encounter card effects that give a choice to avoid them in exchange for shuffling a Ringwraith into the encounter deck. But ideally you don't do this as they will all confront the players on the last quest stage.
As a campaign deck, the hero choices were largely already made. For this quest I moved to a hero lineup of Aragorn, Fatty Bolger and Sam Gamgee.
Aragorn is a great hero for this quest as he gives a nice way to deal with Bill Ferny by suffering his threat increases untl he's gone, then resetting to a nice low number. And while raising threat anyway, why not throw in some Deep Knowledges too.
There are also a number of encounter cards that care about in the quest, not least Power in Their Terror. So Sword that was Broken and Faramir are included to boost everyone to safe levels.
