Gimli's Armor Questions

[jdizzy001]

sorry, i mistated my comment. Once gimli loses a skirmish against a dmg +1 minion, he only has to use his armor once in order to prevent the only wound he would receive since he is wearing his helm, correct?

Gimli's Helm is only useful once the first wound has been placed - in which case every wound after that is ignored.

Erratum .... In the discussed example .... Gimli's Helm doesn't combine well with Gimli's Armor as he will have to prevent every wound as Gimli's Helm only works once a wound is placed in which case Gimli's Armor would not be required anyway.

Gimli's Helm and Gimli's Armor work extremely well together. Gimli's Helm protects Gimli from wounds during skirmish phases and Gimli's Armor keeps him safe all the other time especially if combined with card drawing cards like Delving, Mithril Shaft and Out of Darkness. It helps keep initiative. Even Ever my Heart Rises can help a lot with that. Just keep stacking your draw deck on EMHR and take them in hand during fellowship to keep initiative.... so many combinations, so little time
