Strategy

Ghan-buri-Ghan, Chieftain of the Woses is an interesting promotional card.

While you can spot two other Men, Ghan-buri-Ghan cannot be overwhelmed unless his strength is tripled. Perhaps as an oversight [or at least an interesting coincidence], Ghan-buri-Ghan does not specify between Free Peoples and Shadow Men. Additionally, Ghan-buri-Ghan receives a defender bonus at forest sites.

As a [Gandalf] Man, Ghan-Buri-Ghan can bear Beorning Axe, Armor, Heavy Chain, and Coat of Mail [though the latter does not benefit Ghan-buri-Ghan while three Men are in play].

While released during the Movie Block, Ghan-buri-Ghan does not benefit from any forest sites in that format. In standard, expanded or open games, Ghan-buri-Ghan gains access to several [Gandalf] skirmish events and pumps.

Ghan-buri-Ghan, alongside the rest of Weta Collection cards, is tournament legal since August 30th, 2004 (see Media:DGMA_Tournament_Legal_Cardlist_28.07.2004.pdf).
