Axes of the Dwarves! [Active]
At the beginning of each Combat he is involved in, Gimli can choose to either fight with an axe in each hand, in which case he will fight with 3 Attacks, or with his two-handed axe.
"I myself and sitting pretty on 42" [Active]
If your Army contains both Legolas Greenlead and Gimli, son of Glóin, then keep track of how many enemy models each of them has killed. Whilst he has fewer kills than Legolas, Gimli gains a bonus of +1 To Wound when making Strikes.
Woodland Creature [Active]
A model with this special rule may Move through areas of woods and forests that are classed as Difficult Terrain as if they are Open Ground. If a Cavalry model has this special rule, but their Mount does not, then this rule does not apply to the Mount. If a Mount has this special rule, then they will still gain their Cavalry Charge bonuses when they Charge, even if the rider does not have this special rule.
Mountain Dweller [Active]
A model with this special rule may Move through areas of rocky terrain that are classed as Difficult Terrain as if they are Open Ground. If a Cavalry model has this special rule, but their Mount does not, then this rule does not apply to the Mount. If a Mount has this special rule, then they will still gain their Cavalry Charge bonuses when they Charge, even if the rider does not have this special rule.

Additionally, a model with this special rule may re-roll any Jump, Leap or Climb Tests.
Master-Forged
Some weapons may be classed as Master-forged. A model using a Master-forged weapon doesn't suffer the -1 penalty to the Duel Roll for using it as a two-handed weapon.

Wargear
Galadriel's Locks [Active]:

Gimli may use this Wargear to re-roll a single D6 in a Duel Roll. Gimli may only use this Wargear three times during the course of the game.

Two-handed Weapon:

A two-handed weapon is the kind that requires two hands to wield; as a result, a model wielding a two-handed weapon cannot use any other wargear that would also require the use of a hand (such as a shield) in the same Combat in which they use a two-handed weapon. If the only Melee Weapon a model carries is a two-handed weapon, then they must use it in a Combat - they cannot choose not to.

When a model fights with a two-handed weapon in a Combat, they suffer a -1 penalty to their Duel Roll. However, if the model rolls a natural 6 for their Duel Roll, they do not suffer this penalty. When a model with a two-handed weapon makes a Strike against an enemy model, they apply a +1 modifier to their To Wound Roll - so a 3 would become a 4, a 4 would become a 5, and so on. In the case of when two rolls are required (such as needing a 6+/4+), this will affect both rolls.

Heavy Dwarf Armour:

A model wearing Heavy Dwarf armour will add 3 to their Defence characteristic.

Where a model is listed as having a type of armour in its profile, then the improvement in its Defence characteristic will already have been included in their profile. If a model has the opportunity to upgrade one type of armour to another, then they will replace one with the other - they will not get the Defence benefits of both.

Hand Weapon:

These are the standard kind of weapon a model may carry, and is anything wielded in a single hand, such as a sword, an axe, a mace or all manner of other weapons. The exact kind of weapon being carried doesn't matter; all hand weapons function the same. A hand weapon has no specific rules attached to it.

Elven Cloak:

A model wearing an Elven Cloak has the Stalk Unseen special rule. Additionally, models targeting an Infantry model wearing an Elven Cloak with a Shooting Attack suffer a -1 penalty when rolling To Hit.
