Description

The breaking of the oath pledged to Isildur lies with the King of the Dead. Though cursed, and his body long since reduced to dust, his spirit lingers on until he honours his word. Upon the arrival of Aragorn, the King of the Dead agrees to take up arms against the armies of Mordor, so that the oath that was promised can finally be fulfilled and the dead will at last find the peace they so desperately crave.

The King of the Dead & Heralds set contains the King of the Dead and two of his lieutenants, Heralds of the Dead. Each of these three Heroes can lead a warband of the Dead of Dunharrow, allowing you to use much larger armies of these spectral warriors in your games. The King of the Dead is a terrifying foe, able to slay even the mightiest warrior with a single blow, while the presence of Heralds of the Dead augments their spectral liege.

Rules for the King of the Dead can be found in the Armies of The Lord of the Rings™, and Heralds of the Dead in Gondor at War.
