Boromir, one of the original Fellowship, is a [i]Tactics[/i] Sphere hero that reflects his status as a champion of Gondor. As a reminder, all cards are subject to change before delivery subject to playtesting and licensor approval. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/52c693714394df988c6934fdbb034b9d3c6b7a54.png[/img] Let's start with Boromir's Hero card and it's current state in development: [h1]Boromir[/h1][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/99453e86b9330567a6bd66eabb03e81f47fe365a.png[/img] Boromir is an 11 Threat [i]Tactics[/i] Sphere Hero with the Gondor Trait. His stats are: [b]Attack[/b]: 2 [b]Willpower[/b]: 1 [b]Health[/b]: 11 Boromir has a [b]Vanquish[/b] ability that allows him to Grant a +1 Attack and [b]Block[/b] to himself or another Character for the round. While the effects are only for the round, they are cumulative, so if you manage to get Boromir a second [b]Vanquish[/b] in a single round, he will get to target an additional +1 attack as well as grant and additional block. Let's take a look at Boromir's alternative art, which you can unlock using 1,000 Fellowship. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/766220ef1a3197e94f54b3f0030e6bc7dde73e6e.png[/img] Since Boromir is a [i]Tactics[/i] Hero, let's look at the Tactic's card from Boromir's pack first. [h1]______________________________________________[/h1] [h1]Honor Guard[/h1][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/5ea42759fe07b3fb49b6a13ae9c20b14d800338d.png[/img] This is a Level 2 [i]Tactics[/i] Ally with a Resource Cost of 2 and the following stats: [b]Attack[/b]: 2 [b]Willpower[/b]: 0 [b]Health[/b]: 4 [b]Trait[/b]: Gondor The Honor Guard grants [b]Block[/b] to 1 Character during each [b]Upkeep[/b] (at the beginning of a round). Now, let's look at the [i]Lore[/i] card for this pack... [h1]______________________________________________[/h1] [h1]Heed The Dream[/h1][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/ead3f293cecded725abff821a875dabe32c6c0a0.png[/img] This 1 Resource Cost [i]Lore[/i] [b]Event[/b] card Draws 3 cards from your deck, but at the cost of increased threat. Next up, let's look at the [i]Leadership[/i] card in this pack... [h1]______________________________________________[/h1] [h1]Knight Of The White Tower[/h1][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/b99b18508e130e02680c01b9f364551d65eeec36.png[/img] This is 1 Resource Cost [i]Leadership[/i] Ally card comes with great power, but with great restrictions that will you will need to build around. He has the following stats: [b]Attack[/b]: 3 [b]Willpower[/b]: 2 [b]Health[/b]: 6 [b]Trait[/b]: Gondor With great stats, the Knight can add needed strength to just about any situation, but he may not use his Defense to activate [b]Guard[/b] and grants you +1 [b]Threat[/b] every time he attacks. You will need to be careful when and where you use him. Finally, we wrap up with the [i]Spirit[/i] Card from the pack. [h1]______________________________________________[/h1] [h1]Spear Of The Citadel[/h1][img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31419660/3dc59aecd55ea7625c2342ca528c96e634bf9153.png[/img] This is a 1 Resource Cost [i]Spirit[/i] Attachment that grants [b]Counter[/b] to whoever wields it. Additionally, when a character equipped with the Spear defeats an enemy ([b]Vanquish[/b]), they gain [b]Guard[/b] (up to as many times within a round as they have Willpower). This completes the list of cards available in Boromir's Hero Pack. We hope you enjoy these new cards in play when they are released.
