Title: Question About Discarding Hobbits
Post by: Gwaihir on December 21, 2009, 11:15:18 AM

If a hobbit, or any other companion for that matter, is discarded during a skirmish, does this count as a win for the minion in that skirmish.

I thought that discarding the companion cancels the skirmish so there is no winner, but apparently not all think this way.  I am wondering what the rule is on this and where it can be found.

Yes, it counts for a win. If any side is removed from the skirmish, the other side wins. Being discarded is different than CANCELing the skirmish altogether (in which case there is no winner or loser).

Thanks.  No wonder I missed it.  My search was for discarded, not removed.
