Not all traits in the game depict what race a character is, or to what faction he/she belongs. There are a couple that also denotes what the occupation of the character is. Four of these occupational traits have been widely expanded upon and have been linked with a certain sphere. This began in the Dream-chaser … Continue reading Ranger
Can't believe another month has gone by so fast again. The blog is already 9 months old and I'm still in cycle 5. At least the news out of FFG has been slow, so I should be catching up to recent content within a year. This month has been a bit of an organized mess, … Continue reading Month in Review: September 2018
With the blog dipping its toe into the Angmar Awakened cycle this month, I wanted to know which of 9 quests rank among the favourites for the community. The cycle introduced the concept of side-quests, and several scenarios play around this. With only 9 options to choose from, I decided to give everyone 2 votes, … Continue reading Monthly Poll: September 2018
For many, Hunt for Gollum was their first Adventure pack, but it left the players a bit disappointed. The quest was very swingy with early cardpool cards and became easy in the later life of the game.

With over a hundred quests released at this time, you will have to choose a quest that is both fun, and also … Continue reading New Player Quests
While scrying the encounter deck can be very useful information for players, scrying your own deck is also helpful. Knowing what cards will be drawn in the next resource phase can allow you to stack the deck in your favour. Searching your entire deck for the crucial 1 off card is also very important to … Continue reading Staples: Scrying (Player deck)
Another month has gone by, and while the blog has been silent for a while, the game feels more alive than ever, with news articles every week and some fan-made content as well. Lets quickly take a look at what this month has brought us. August August has been a quiet month on the blog, … Continue reading Month in Review: August 2018
In the background of this month, I asked you to fill in the monthly poll as usual. This month, I wanted to know what 3 cost Lore ally is the community's favourite. There are a lot of 3 cost Lore allies, and some are more worth the inclusion in your deck than others. With the … Continue reading Monthly Poll: August 2018
