| Post subject: | Resist Nature's Wrath? |
I was participating in a small tournament recently here in Chicago. My opponent Nature's Wrath my Warband down a couple times. He advised that it was not possible to use Will to resist with my Hero. He is well versed with his force of Elves, and I did not argue it. I shielded my Warriors of Minas Tirth and damage was minimal. But the game was slow, and I scored a victory of 2-0 VP's. Is this ruling correct? |

No way! A hero can use his will points to resist it, as usual. |

Was he using Thranduil to cast it ? He may be confused, as Thranduil does "auto-cast" Nature's Wrath - i.e, he doesn't need to roll any dice to cast it - and the rule states that the cast counts as though it was a 6 that was rolled. At that point, your hero can definitely attempt to resist, needing a 6 to do so.... |

Lee.......holy **** this is what happens when I dont show up to an event? Lmao......should have asked someone. Thranduils natures wrath is auto cast rolling as if it were a 6. You can resist with any heroes as long as you roll a 6 to stop it. Your opponent was apparently not that well versed  as Ive told him myself multiple times(and done it) that he can be resisted.

This is good to know. I didn't know thranduril's auto cast nature's wrath could be resisted. Learn something every day. |

Still have to be within 6" and roll a 6, but yes. At least that's what I've seen. That's how I've played it. I asked about it before because I had to play against Thranduil every week or at least few weeks for nearly a year. |

I really like the old thranduil. Wood elves with a 2+ accuracy and an auto cast nature's wrath. Yes please! |

Indeed, a friend of mine used to be convinced of the same thing: "auto-cast=impossible to resist" Luckily the local Gw shop manager was able to convince him that he was.... Well, pretty wrong to say the least |

Guys it's not terribly hard to resist. It comes down to planning and luck sure.... I've done it multiple times. Once I had Shagrat, war leader within the bubble and rolled all his will. Got a 6. Resisted with a ringwraith before. Also a lucky Hobbit who had resistant to magic in a tournament game at Nova hahaha. |

Since thranduil is in the mirkwood and lothlorien list, I often found him coupled with Galadriel, who either commands the hero away or force him to spend will. |

Yeah that happens a lot. Depends on points level. If the points are low enough they can't afford both. If it's high enough I have a ringwraith to SAP will. Don't forget Thranduil can't do anything without will. |

But regardless yes Aura of Dismay cannot be used. |
