Lobelia Sackville-Baggins

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins

Lobelia Sackville-Baggins is not that strong of a hero but has quite strong for a hobbit.

Her ability is very thematic if you know the books. Bilbo is quite afraid of her and her attitudes.

The fact that she can use all atachments might be of some use.

Can you use this with a card like Sting while it is attached to an enemy? If yes, then I feel it can become too OP. —
i think guarded cards are not "in play" —
'A player card attachment with the Guarded (X) Keyword cannot be attached to a character until it is free of encounters.' Since her ability only says she can grab things she is ineligible for, I don't think it would overwrite the guarded keyword, since that's a condition applied to the item itself. —
Hobbit Cloak

Hobbit Cloak

I'm a little surprised that Hobbit Cloak doesn't have any reviews, because I think it's incredible. Even if you have just the Core and Fellowship boxes, this card can be invaluable, allowing even a thematic Hobbit deck to defend against the Black Riders without instantly losing a hero if it has to. The in-box Fatty Bolger and, of course, the Fellowship Frodo Bagginses have 2 printed , which then becomes 4 if you're managing your threat properly and are forced to engage with a Black Rider, netting you 1 damage on a hero instead of a whole dead hobbit. With a larger card pool, it becomes even more awesome. The Return of the King box(es) gives you the in-sphere Halbarad and the 3 Tom Cotton. Merry reduces your threat and Pippin gives further enemy engagement cost boosts, and there are, of course, myriad other options to lower your threat to make sure you're getting the full value out of the single resource you spent on this card. And, as an added bonus, it is not even restricted!

One of my favourite events got an errata in the Revised printing of Ered Mithrin. Now it states "choose an ITEM attachment" - so no more out of sphere Steward of Gondor. This significantly lowers the usuability of this card, but I still think it's awesome in the right deck.

Son of Arnor

Son of Arnor

Bill Ferny.

That’s all I have to say. I wanted that to be the whole review, but I need 200 characters. I hate Bill Ferny in the “A Knife in the Dark” quest. He stays in the staging area the whole time and raises your threat until you can finally kill him. Son of Arnor lets you engage him and kill him in the first few turns. I don’t care what else he does. This guy lets me settle my personal vendetta against Bill, and thus, I am satisfied.

Have you considered Tireless Hunters for an even easier pull? —
Keep It Secret

Keep It Secret

the response part of this card Seems very difficult to use. How many times are the whole team going to be in secrecy. If you opt in though can each player use is response and action seperately? so they can all benefit from the secrecy 1.

This was a card meant to try to create a space for a Secrecy Fellowship. Note that with the Action every player (who build their decks even a little bit towards it, as in start with a threat or 25 or o so) should be able to get easily into Secrecy. —
But even if the whole Fellowship is not geared towards Secrecy the Action can be useful for a Secrecy deck which maybe ends up at 22-23 threat but still wants to get the secrecy benefits —
Yes, it’s not immediately obvious but the action can be triggered as much as you want. You can raise your secrecy level to 30… but you’ll also lower your threat elimination level to 30 in the process. But if all four decks do that, then everyone in the fellowship gets a 1-resource discount all game… or at least until two players threat out. —
