Gimli’s Battleaxe, Trusted Weapon

One example does not justify your point. Besides, like i said, thats adding to the archery not making archers. I can understand hand axe throwing it to wound something, but dwarves with bows shooting is unbalanced and messed up.

Fine except im not ok with making any culture companion damage +1. Hobbits for example just shouldnt be damage +1.

I didn’t want to make it increase the archery total because then then it could keep going on forever, whereas you can only be an archer once. That was my thinking, but if DI or someone agrees with your point, I will change the ability to something else.

I agree with lem0n’s point. Only on rare occasions should Dwarves deal with archery at all (and it makes NO sense to me on Gimli’s Battle Axe, but I didn’t have opportunity to review Decipher’s cards ), and while I think Great Days of Old is a good exception to the "rule", it should simply boost the archery total. Dwarves should NEVER be actual archers. If NB saw that, he’d throttle you.

I could grab that big dwarven beard and kiss you Dain. Though i wont because we’re both married heterosexual guys. But you get the idea!!!!

maybe remove a thread or draw a card.
