Flói Stonehand, Loremaster of Moria

November 2010·p. 43

THE SHORT VERSION

Flói spends Will to suppress a visible enemy’s special rule for the turn, with no distance limit beyond his line of sight. His reserve of knowledge grows whenever the Dwarves kill an enemy hero or a multi-Wound creature, replenishing the resource needed for further interference. The designer’s note frames unexpected interactions as the advantage of centuries of accumulated experience.

The Lord of the Rings: Reinforcements

New Strategy Battle Game profiles extend the struggle between Dwarves and Goblins with elite Blackshields, their captain, shaman and mobile drum team, alongside the Cave Drake, Flói Stonehand and the King’s Champion. Each includes points, characteristics, equipment and army-list compatibility. Their special rules emphasise ancient enmity, disruptive magic, underground mobility, accumulated lore and close cooperation between the Champion and his protective heralds.

Gundabad Blackshield Captain

The Blackshield Captain provides a hardened leader for Moria or Dwellers Below forces, with heavy armour and a two-handed weapon. Ancient Enemies grants improved reliability when wounding Dwarves and Elves, while Cave Dwellers situates him within the subterranean fighting style of his followers. The profile gives the elite Blackshield contingent a leader whose battlefield role mirrors its veteran, heavily armed identity.

Gundabad Blackshield Shaman

The Blackshield Shaman uses destructive and disruptive powers rather than the conventional Goblin shaman’s support role. Tremor knocks down and strikes models along a randomly extended line, while Shatter destroys an enemy’s weapons for the rest of the battle. The complete profile places this specialist caster in Moria and Dwellers Below armies, offering a way to weaken powerful opponents before the Blackshields engage them.
