"Let him go or I'll have you, Longshanks!" [Active] 
During the Declare Heroic Action step of the Fight Phase, if Frodo Engaged in Combat and is within 6" of Sam, then Sam may declare a free Heroic Combat. If this Heroic Combat is successful, then Sam must use the following Move to join Frodo's Combat. If this is not possible, then Sam must Move as close as possible to Frodo. Sam cannot use this special rule if he is in the same Combat as Frodo.
Resistant to Magic [Passive] 
Every time this model is targeted by a Magical Power, they gain an additional free dice when making a Resist Test, even if they have no Will Points remaining or decide not to use any Will Points. This is cumulative with other rules that confer a similar effect.
Throw Stones (X,X) [Active] 
If this model does not Move during the Move Phase, it may make a Shooting Attack during the following Shoot Phase. The Strength and range of this Shooting Attack will be shown in the model's profile.
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.

Frying Pan [Active]:

Instead of making Strikes if wins a Duel Roll, Sam may choose to use his Frying Pan as a weapon. Choose one enemy Infantry model involved in the Combat (with the exception of a Monster) and roll a D6. On a 4+, the chosen model is stunned by the hit and cannot Move during the following turn, but may otherwise act normally.

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.
