That's the core of the engine, but there are a few more additions that see some play. If you're using Frodo, Old Bilbo's Heir, you can also use {{Card|Bounder}} to help prevent your hobbit companions from being [[overwhelm]]ed in a skirmish. (Guests can't heal Bounder, since his [[Home Site|home site]] isn't site 1.) The only other Hobbit ally of consequence that isn't home site 1 is {{Card|Bilbo, Retired Adventurer}}, but he's rarely played due to his weaker game text and inability to be healed by Hobbit Party Guest. | That's the core of the engine, but there are a few more additions that see some play.

If you're choking with Consorting with Wizards, other choke cards, like {{Card|A Talent for Not Being Seen}}, {{Card|Sting}}, {{Card|No Stranger to the Shadows}}, {{Card|Aragorn, Heir to the White City}}, and {{Card|Legolas, Dauntless Hunter}} go along with that gameplan. This is most effective in earlier [[format]]s like [[Fellowship Block]] and [[Towers Standard]], because those formats have [[site]] paths with lower [[Twilight (Cost | If you're choking with Consorting with Wizards, other choke cards, like {{Card|A Talent for Not Being Seen}}, {{Card|Sting}}, {{Card|No Stranger to the Shadows}}, {{Card|Aragorn, Heir to the White City}}, and {{Card|Legolas, Dauntless Hunter}} go along with that gameplan.

{{Card|Hobbit Farmer}} can set up {{Card|Green Hill Country}} or {{Card|Westfarthing}} to help you choke. Green Hill Country is better if you're playing mostly hobbits, since it discounts all of your hobbits with no [[exert]]ion, and it's the only site that is also compatible with using the game text of {{Card|Frodo's Bedroom}}. Plus, you can stack a second Farmer to discount Bilbo or Sam down to zero. Westfarthing can help with non-hobbits, although it's less effective when playing a hand full of allies due to the exertions involved. Since Westfarthing can only reduce costs by -1, there's no need for a second Farmer. {{Card|Town Center}} is a third option, if you feel your choke needs are well-handled, and it's another site that doesn't benefit from duplicate Farmers. Unfortunately, Hobbit Farmer only works with the sites from Fellowship Block, so he's only ever played in that format. | {{Card|Hobbit Farmer}} can set up {{Card|Green Hill Country}} or {{Card|Westfarthing}} to help you choke.
