Title: Fought in an Earthly Battle
Post by: thestrongangel on November 24, 2008, 02:58:09 PM: If I play Armorbearer, does it mean to just band to a human hero?

Thanks,
Daniel

It means literally fought a battle with weapons, war and bloodshed. There is a list in the REG of who qualifies, which includes military leaders who may not have actually drawn blood.

Post by: YourMathTeacher on November 24, 2008, 05:47:43 PM: I agree that any WC hero will work, but (as you said) there are others. The REG list is the best guide to use. For anyone who uses Armorbearer, copying the list on paper to keep with you would be wise.

yes it has to be earthly battle you would have more luck using a king and saying he fought in a earthly battle

Not all kings have fought in an earthly battle -- King Tut comes to mind, but I'm sure there were others. The REG is the most reliable source for a comprehensive list.

We were talking about "earthly battles," so angels don't count anyway.
