This is what I'm thinking now. May change later tonight.

Also I'd like to point out I now have at least three wolf-like players on my team. I'm pretty happy about that.

Noggportunistics

GK – Grimbeorn of Wilderland

DF – Tar Calmacil of Númenor
DF – Nienna of Pelori
DF – Tulkas of Valinor
DF - **Tar Telperion of Westernesse

MF – Saruman of Misty Mts.
MF – Khamûl of Wilderland
MF - *Húrin of Doriath

FW – *Maeglin of Anfaughlith
FW – *Ancalagon of Angband
FW – Smaug of Wilderland (C)

At first (before the tournament) I thought I would be more or less changing my whole team just looking at the next matches during the group-play. Then I thought (today) that I would only change one or two players as I was happy about my team. The outcome is, well, something of the middle... (I haven't lost faith with Westernesse, I just think the odds are Tol Eressëa will score once anyway thus reducing the points of the GK & the DF's)

But hey, I'm still trusting on my FW-trio, and even if Khamûl brought me zero points he will not let me down two games in a row... and I am not even considering recruiting Túrin or Fëanor into my team at this point (I think I have had both of them maybe once or twice in a relatively late part of the tournament in the earlier years - and I think I'm not changing it - I need to score points without them!). There is something called pride, like hybris appearing before nemesis. And anyway, someone has to try different routes...

Let's see how long will I fight against recruiting them this time around...

PS. If someone wonders why I traded away only one star and traded in three stars, there's an easy answer: we got one star-allowance more and during the last round I had marked Smaug as having one star which Smaug hasn't. So it should be correct now (thanks Nilp for reminding me about it).
