This is a deck put together for the Sailing quests from the Dreamchaser cycle.

This deck is intended to be part of a multiplayer fellowship and is designed to take on the boarders that can swamp your companions. It has the added advantage of using little used Heroes an very few uniques

The most important card is Armored Destrier. Once he is on Erkenbrand you have a sentinel defender with 4 defence (Elfhelm's boost) for 2 attacks. Thus the boarders can be defended.

Rohan Warhorse on Brand son of Bain gives us the attacking options with a ranged attack for 4 (Elfhelm's bonus) by himself or more together with a character from the engaged player. Brand son of Bain's ability readies a character from the engaged player, Rohan Warhorse readies Brand son of Bain. Next boarder please.

Galadriel helps fetch the missing combo piece.

The various Dunedain cards provide buffs.

Not sure on Weather Hills Watchman as in play testing he does tend to Wiff

NOTE We Are Not Idle is only in for deck thining

Cool deck, especially if the other part of the felloship has some Spirit mounts. I always found Elfhelm a fascinating hero, I am eager to add it to my rooster as soon as I will get my hands on him.

Perhaps using some Valiant Sacrifice (yes Snowborn Scout, your destiny is forever signed) for more card draw

I guess you didnt include Arod/Firefoot cause they are unique?

@Alonewolf87 Thanks for the comment

Valiant Sacrifice would be good but the idea of the deck is not to engage yourself but to kill the boarders that come with the enemy ships engaging., so the best Chump blocker in the game Snowbourn Scout is more of an insurance policy than a core part of the deck.

Firefoot wasn't considered for the same reason.

I hadn't thought of Arod, With the anticipated nubers of boarders to kill he would definately gets some good work in. Great shout, thanks for that one.
