Rulings[edit]

The game text of the Knight of Dol Amroth makes it clear which minions can be wounded by his ability if he wins a skirmish. All the same, the wording may seem self-contradictory without context of the rules. If the Knight of Dol Amroth wins a skirmish, how can he be skirmishing a minion?

Per the rules, "A skirmish phase ends after all actions triggered by winning or losing that skirmish have resolved." In the case of the Knight of Dol Amroth, this means that any skirmish he wins is not ended until the Free Peoples player has chosen whether to wound a minion with his ability. Therefore, any minion that loses a skirmish to the Knight of Dol Amroth is still considered to be skirmishing him until the Free Peoples player has placed that wound, or elected not to do so. By the same token, the Knight of Dol Amroth is still considered to be skirmishing that minion until the Free Peoples player has placed that wound, or elected not to do so.

Note also: if the Knight of Dol Amroth has just won a skirmish, and he is skirmishing more than one minion, the Free Peoples player may only choose to wound one of those minions with his ability. But, quite outside of his ability, each minion he is skirmishing will still receive a wound simply as a matter of losing the skirmish, as described in the rules.
