Exciting news for Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game enthusiasts: Forge World is set to release a new resin miniature of Beechbone, one of the most formidable Ents from J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium.
Who is Beechbone?
Beechbone was a notably tall and handsome Ent who played a significant role during the assault on Isengard. Witnessing the devastation wrought by Saruman’s forces, Beechbone’s deep-seated animosity towards the White Wizard culminated in his active participation in the Ents’ march against Isengard.
Miniature Features and Gameplay
The upcoming Beechbone miniature showcases his imposing stature and battle-ready demeanor. In gameplay, Beechbone possesses a formidable Strength 10 Throw Stones ability, allowing him to hurl boulders with devastating effect. His special rule, Deep-rooted Hatred, grants him re-rolls on all failed To Wound rolls against Orcs, Uruk-hai, Goblins, and Isengard models, reflecting his intense loathing for these foes. However, this hatred also compels him to charge such units whenever possible.
Integration into Your Army
Players can incorporate Beechbone into their Fangorn-themed armies, alongside other notable Ents like Treebeard and Birchseed. His rules are detailed in the Armies of The Lord of the Rings™ book, providing comprehensive guidelines for fielding him in battle.
Release Details
The Beechbone miniature is scheduled for release later this year through Forge World. Collectors and gamers alike can look forward to adding this mighty Ent to their Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game collections.
