If this model is targeted by a Magical Power, it may use an additional ’free’ dice when it makes a Resist test, even if it has no Will remaining or decides not to use any Will points from its store.
Thráin the Broken is an interesting character in that his profile maybe used for either the Good or Evil side – a first for the Middle-earthStrategy Battle Game.
Thráin the Broken is Historical Allies with The White Council, solong as the army contains Gandalf the Grey; and Historical Allies with the Dark Powers of Dol Guldur, so long as it includes The Necromancer of Dol Guldur.
He is Impossible Allies with all other army lists.
At the start of every Priority phase, before rolling for Priority, Thráin must take an unmodified Courage test. If the test is passed, he acts normally. If it is passed on a double, Thráin adds +2 to his Fight, Strength, Attacks and Courage until the end of the turn. If the Courage test is failed, then the opposing player controls Thráin as if he was one of their models. If Thráin is being used as a Good model, then when he fails his Courage test, the only difference between him and other Evil models is that Good models cannot target Thráin with missile fire or Magical Powers that cause damage, and cannot make Strikes against him. Thráin must always take this Courage test, he can never be forced to automatically pass it.
