Awesome stuff before discarding Gandalf (Core) at the end of the turn (he readies before his discard).

In combo with "idle" and with a "only dwarfs deck" you can have even 7 dwarfs (3 are the starting heroes) in play in the first turn......seriously, but with a little bit of luck. :P

Best player card in the box. Even though it's Stargazer- and Gildor-proof, it's still incredibly efficient. This is nearly to Leadership as Daeron's Runes is to Lore. Not quite on that level (because there will be times when AVGT is a dead card) but I would have a very hard time not putting this in any deck with a Leadership hero.

Don't forget a Hidden Cache [The Morgul Vale]... you get 2 allies AND 2 resources for a hero of your choice!
