Hobbit Precon - Dale-Town
deck Bard, Heir of Girion
Aug 11, 2026
The deck tells a story of victory in Dale. It begins with Smaug's attack on Lake-town, represented by cards such as Day of Judgment and Doomskar. In the midst of the destruction, Bard the Bowman takes his stand and uses The Black Arrow to bring down Smaug.
With the dragon defeated, the story shifts from destruction to recovery. The survivors of Lake-town gather around Bard, represented by the many Human and Soldier creatures and tokens throughout the deck. Cards such as Raise the Alarm, Resolute Reinforcements, Call the Coppercoats and Esgaroth Garrison represent the people coming together and forming a new community.
From there, the deck tells the story of Dale being rebuilt. Bard, Heir of Girion eventually becomes Bard, King of Dale, while cards such as The Queen of Dale, Flowering of the White Tree, Call for Unity and Banner of Kinship shows the restoration of the Town and the unity of its people. The growing number of Human tokens mirrors the return of Dale's population, while the various anthem effects show the city becoming stronger as it is rebuilt.
The price is a little bit higher in dollars than i expected, but i tried keeping it close to 150
