RULES·WHITE DWARF 355

Rúmil, Warden of Caras Galadhon

July 2009·p. 49

THE SHORT VERSION

Haldir’s brother brings protective armour, a shield and a skilled duellist’s response. His special parry forces a successful enemy combat die to be rolled again. The profile makes him a durable source of leadership for a compact Elven force. His background ties that battlefield role to defending the Golden Wood.

The Galadhrim Host

Mat follows the previous month’s formation-game coverage with updated skirmish rules. A revised Lothlórien list accompanies profiles for heroes, infantry and cavalry. Shields, woodland movement and accessible Might change the army’s practical options. The opening advice stresses using terrain and carefully timed Heroic actions to offset being outnumbered.

Haldir, Defender of Helm’s Deep

This version represents Haldir’s doomed intervention at the Hornburg. Nearby Aragorn or Théoden strengthens his resolve and fighting support. If he falls in combat, he makes a final attack against the enemies involved. The profile explicitly prevents including both versions of Haldir in the same force.

Galadhrim Captain

The generic commander provides leadership without requiring a named hero. His basic equipment can exchange a blade for a bow. Woodland movement keeps him compatible with the troops he leads. The profile offers a straightforward way to add Heroic resources to a Lothlórien skirmish army.
