<strong>The</strong> <strong>Dwarf</strong> <strong>Holds</strong> | <strong>Dwarf</strong> Heroes 40 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Dwarf</strong> <strong>Holds</strong> | <strong>Dwarf</strong> Heroes41Glóin is the primary Dwarven early-game hero. His speed leadershipis very useful – it allows Dwarves near him to match the speed of theother factions’ basic infantry. At Rank 3 he also becomes the <strong>Dwarf</strong>player’s sole source of mobile healing, which is important with a highcost faction. Otherwise, he has average melee damage, but highertoughness than most other early heroes. To aid him in deploying hispowers, Emissary at Rank 5 lets Glóin avoid attack damage for half aminute. At Rank 9, his top level power immobilizes all units enteringan area (though Glóin must stay still to do this). This power lets theDwarves pin a high-cost archery battalion, or stop a Rohirric GloriousCharge in its tracks.Recruiting Glóin also allows the training of Glóin’s Guard, a toughbodyguard unit from the Guardhouse.Woodscraft is an essential skill for keeping your troops aliveGimli son of GlóinAdventurous <strong>Dwarf</strong>Gimli son of Glóin is, as of now, littlemore than a nobleman’s son. That said,he shows great promise in the arts ofwar, something inherited from his father.Gimli is skilled in the use of the smallthrowing axe, as well as the larger, twohandedbattleaxe. A natural sprinter,and even something of an acrobatamong the Dwarves, Gimli ironicallytakes little pride in his aptitude for this.However, these skills have been noticed,and Gimli has been assigned as part ofthe escort for Glóin’s party of emissariesen route to Rivendell, and the Council ofElrond.Abilities: Rank 1Hurl a throwing axe at thetargetRank 3Leap AttackGloin complements an early unit of <strong>Dwarf</strong> Warriors quite handilyShrewd Prospector gives a useful temporary income boostRank 5Rank 7Double the income of a targetMine for 50 seconds+100% Speed, +100% AttackDamage for 30 secondsRank 8+30% bonus ArmourLeap is as useful as ever!Gimli is the Dwarven hero we all know and love. Versatile, like hisincarnation in the original game, he comes with a powerful rangedattack and can easily access a potent area of effect Leap. New in <strong>The</strong><strong>Dwarf</strong> <strong>Holds</strong> are two powers which improve his survivability (Armor ofErebor at Rank 8) and allow him to contribute to resource collection(Shrewd Prospector at Rank 5). This allows Gimli to fill almost everyrole in the <strong>Dwarf</strong> army, making him a solid choice as a hero.
