General Strategy

The [Rohan] version of Coat of Mail. This card is actually statistically identical to Coat of Mail as neither of them specify culture, so they can be used interchangeably. This card works particularly well on Defender + 1 companions (Such as Eomer with Firefoot) and companions that can take a lot of damage (Such as Eowyn, Sister Daughter of Theoden).

Strengths and Weaknesses

Strong Versus...

  • High-powered minions, such as Hill Clan or Castamir of Umbar
  • Overwhelm prevention in Swarm decks

Weak Versus...

  • Possession Discard
  • Grima, Wormtongue
  • Strange-looking Men, or other Raider or Men cards that can transfer the possession.
