Amazing game you guys! Getting into a wanderers of the wild battle company myself soon, but seeing those 2 companies really has me gotten excited to play wood Elves/Rangers! One question though, wouldn't the Elves be able to take some territory off the Rangers through the sea? The Elves control the docks in Gondor, whilst the Rangers control the Grey Havens :)

@DrTomWelsh 4 жыл бұрын

Brilliant selection of models and Gandalf conversion. For jump down tests, I thought it was considered climbing down and therefore half movement vertically? Makes sense the way you played it so would be curious to know if the rules allow it?

Thanks Tom! Yeah you can climb down or jump and take falling damage :)
