Homebrew: Filling in the Gaps

Posted on October 10, 2020 by Beorn

Alternate Art: The Three Hunters Aggro v2

Posted on September 15, 2019 by Beorn

Sands of Harad was not exactly my favorite deluxe expansion, when it was first released. The versions of Gimli and Legolas had obvious synergy, but their effects seemed a bit underwhelming. Spirit Legolas, in particular, was in an uphill battle … Continue reading →
