	~~Of all the cards released by Decipher,~~ Ted Sandyman ~~is one of the most bizarre~~, despite not necessarily being that powerful. His race of Hobbit allows him to interact with a large number of prior released [shire] cards such as Little Golden Flower, [[lotr12123\|Hope is Kindled]], [[lotr13148\|Fates Entwined]] and [[lotr11167\|Incognito]], since most [shire] cards never specified culture when dealing with Hobbits. He also triggers with various other cards targeting Hobbits, such as Fool of a Took!.

	Ted Sandyman's Regroup ability, unlike other [man] cards that stack [man] minions on [man] support area possessions, does not specify anything regarding the target possession. This gives the Shadow player the ability to stack minions in many nonsensical ways, such as stacking minions on Gandalf's Cart or Ranger's ~~Sword. It also gives the Shadow player some useful interactions that are otherwise impossible, like stacking [man] Men on [[lotr08030\|Web]] to boost [[lotr08025\|Eater of Light]], or stacking [man]~~ Men ~~on [[lotr06073\|Scaffolding]].~~

	~~Ted Sandyman~~'s ~~Maneuver ability synergises well with quick and easy forms of site control, such as the abilities of Rapt Hillman~~ (~~Especially with Pavise~~), Engrossed Hillman and Wandering Hillman. Since all of these occur in the maneuver phase, the Shadow player can control sites, then immediately release them for strength bonuses, giving the Free Peoples player little time to respond.

	With a twilight cost of 1, Ted Sandyman has the best cost-to-vitality ratio of any minion in the game, making him strong against archery and wounding. He also never naturally roams, making him very easy to play, and can be useful for fulfilling the spotting requirements of larger [man] ~~minions, such as Voice of the Desert and Desert Wind.~~

	Ted Sandyman has an extremely low strength, so surviving to the Regroup phase may require some support from cards such as Coldly Still, Corsair Vandal, Gathering Strength, Agent of Saruman or his own ability.

	~~= Strengths and Weaknesses =~~

	~~=== Strong Versus... ===~~

	* Archery and Wounding
	* Site Liberation (Can act first to give the Shadow player some benefit)
	* Choke

	~~=== Weak Versus... ===~~

	* Very poor strength without support from other [man] cards

	~~= Rules and Clarifications =~~

	* Race of Hobbit allows Ted Sandyman to interact with many [shire] cards, although he cannot benefit from cards that target [man] ~~Men only.~~
	* Can stack other minions on any active possession in play, although the benefits of doing so vary.

	~~= Extra Information =~~

	* Has the typical Hobbit statistics from Set 1, mirroring those of Merry and Pippin (3 strength, 4 vitality, 1 cost).
