Witch-king, LotN

[TheJord]

Can The One Ring, The Ruling Ring add burdens if LotN exerts to wound him twice?

[lem0nhead]

Id say yes.

[Pepin The Breve]

  Yes, he can. There is a clarification somewhere that say that the RB can put the ring to prevent wounds in this case.

[Thranduil]

Well, the point is that it's a skirmish phase when the Ring-bearer is taking those wounds, hence he can wear the Ring.

Back when I was a n00b, I played against TTT Ents with a terrible beatdown Nazgul deck, this guy was supposed to win me the game... then the guy I was playing just said "Ok so I will put on the Ring..." "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

[GarrisonofGondor]

 But the ring says SKIRMISH not skirmish phase. I'd say you only wear it when you are in a skirmish.

[Aragorn_Ellessar]

By golly, GoG is right. It says while the RB is in a skirmish he can wear the one ring. not before.

But the ring says SKIRMISH not skirmish phase. I'd say you only wear it when you are in a skirmish.

No, there'sa  difference between the skirmish phase and skirmishing. Even if a different skirmish is resolving, I can still use "skirmish" abilities from other characters, otherwise, for instance, those Uruks from Towers block that pumps other Uruks would be useless.

[Thranduil]

Yes, FM is right. You are still taking the wounds "in a skirmish", it's just not the Ring-bearer's skirmish.

Thranduil

[Aragorn_Ellessar]

Is it the same with other rings?

[Thranduil]

Yes. this will be true for all rings with the wording "about to take a wound in a skirmish". And it's obvious that something like Isildur's Bane or the Ring of Rings will be able to take burdens instead of wounds.

Ok, thanks.
