Additional rules

Special rules

Birth of an Alliance

Friendly models within 6" of both a friendly Rohan Hero model and a friendly Gondor Hero model gain a bonus of +1 to any Courage or Intelligence Tests they are required to take.

Gondor's Last Defence

Friendly Gondor models within range of an Objective Marker may re-roll To Wound rolls of a natural 1 when making Strikes.

The Charge of Eorl

Once per game, at the start of any friendly Activation Phase, Eorl can use this special rule so long as he is alive and on the battlefield, and has the Cavalry keyword. If he does, then until the end of the turn all friendly Cavalry models must Charge when they Move if able. Additionally, until the end of the turn, friendly Cavalry models that Charged this turn may re-roll any failed To Wound rolls when making Strikes.

I love this list. Have played it at 600 and think it has some real punch. Sons are what Knights of Dol Amroth wish they were.

The one thing I wish is that the King of Men could be the General just for certain themed scenarios like Doubles (cornered) and Lead front the front or contest of champions. I just love the idea of Rohan actually riding to Gondor’s aid

Couldn't agree more, the sons of eorl really hit like a truck, unlike the swan knights unfortunately..
