Okay, question about this card:
Say I have Durin, Proud and Able, and Frodo at Fords of Isen.
The opponent lays down three small orcs, then a cave troll and a balrog.
Okay, so I play Disquiet of our people to make Durin defender plus 2. I then assign the orcs to him. The balrog and cave troll go to Frodo. After winning Durins skirmish (He's damage plus 9 and the orcs are 2 vitality), I play More Yet to Come. Here's the question. Do I get to reassign: 8 wounds? 24 wounds? or 2 wounds? Anyone know?
-
The Balrog and the Cave Troll would need to go first, as More Yet to Come targets minions who are not assigned. And you would get to assign 8 wounds.
-
Right. My thought was 8 wounds since it says *A* minion.
-
Poor Frodo...
-
Yeah...but he has The One Ring the Great ring + Bounder + Sting, so he's fine. :)
-
The way it works is, Durin wins, so each Orc takes a wound, then his damage bonus. +1 is enough to kill them, so the remaining +8 are applied to MYtC
-
Ok, I have to ask..
Does this count when overwhelming? Or does kill imply only he minion dies in skirmish by wounds...
-
Another good question...
My guess: He won a skirmish, and no wounds were applied, so all of them can be assigned?
-
sharkey is correct in his assumption. A Dwarf still kills a minion. No wounds were applied. You may apply the remaining wounds to minions not assigned to skirmishes. Take that, Goblin Scrabbler!

...remaining wounds caused by damage bonuses...
ie. A dwarf with damage +2 overwhelms a minion, 2 wounds (not 3) can be assigned via more yet to come.
-
Nah, I think I'm right on that- "If a Dwarf kills a minion in a skirmish and that minion did not take all wounds caused by that Dwarf's damage bonus, assign those remaining wounds to minions not assigned to a skirmish. " I think my logic still works.

I always wondered why southron scout was printed. I would take goblin runner over it any day

But can Goblin Runner ride a MUMAK? Huh? HUH?!
I think that settles it.

Overwhelming does not cause wounds. It sends characters straight to the dead pile. Straight from the CRD.

Yeah, so he didn't take all the wounds caused by that dwarve's damage bonus.
-
I think Elgar is cautioning not to include the "default" wound with MYTC, as may have been implied earlier. The default wound does not come from a damage bonus.

Bingo :)
-
So it depends on whether it means, "Subtract the minion's vitality from the wounds that the dwarf caused in the skirmish," or "If the minion did not take all wounds that the dwarf could have caused". I have no idea. I'll lean towards the one I like better. :)
-
If you have a Dwarf that was damage +4, he would cause five wounds; however, if that same Dwarf overwhelms a minion, he causes no wounds. More Yet To Come allows you to assign the four wounds from the damage bonus, not five wounds which are all the wounds the minion could have taken if not overwhelmed.

Right! Thanks for pointing that out too!
