Men of Anorien? I actually prefer the Fealty Sworn - Chance Meeting - Bilbo - Palantir of Minas Tirith - Align Palantir last turn tech (with enough smoke rings and/or wizard manipulation, of course)
THREE to fealty sworns? With how many hobbits are you going to walk around? I would cut that down to 2.
& I don't see the Hall of Fire or the Goldberry use ... I don't see at what haven you need an untap, nor why you would include an ally so far from your stomping fields.

No remarks. Looks like a typical dirty corruption/assassin hazard strat :P. But add Lobelia Sackville- Baggins ...

Actually, it's a company of four hobbits. The Elf-lords are intended to go into the deck. Just pick one to sit under your wizard so you can have some extra MP and another card in your hand.

Bilbo is usually a starting character (unless he gets bounced of course).

The whole idea is to get nickel-and-dime MP all at the same few Rohan sites. They're free points, so why not take them if you're already there getting a faction?

She's there as insurance against roadblock. Skin-changers plays havok with this deck. After much trial-and-error, I put her in. Most of the time, I've been able to get up there to play her w/ little to no trouble. It's when the roadblock comes out fast and furious that I have a problem.

Yeah, I think in a revision I added her, but I don't know where I put that version of the deck. :(
