Faction: Far Harad, 1.0

Client subjects of Umbar, the Mahud Tribesmen of Far Harad are known for their savagery and tenacity. These Tribesmen will fight on in defiance despite heavy losses, and as such are highly valued as mercenary troops. From the shadows of Karna, the Mahud visit wrath on all who oppose them!

Special Rules
Hardy — A savage people, the Mahud Tribesmen are a tough race and can shrug off wounds that would incapacitate others. Whenever this hero is forced to roll on the Hero Injury Table, the player may choose to re-roll the result. The second result stands, even if it is worse than the original.

Death To My Enemy! -- The Mahud Tribesman believe in striking at the leadership of enemy forces to throw their opponents into confusion. Whenever this Hero is in hand-to-hand combat with an enemy Hero, he gains +1 to his roll to win the Fight. This does not apply to impact hits from a charging camel, if the Hero is mounted.

**A note about Far Harad Battle Companies**
For the purposes of the Warrior Pride special rule, any Far Harad Hero in combat will allow Mahud models within 12” to automatically pass its Courage test. Also, the Half Trolls of Far Harad are rightfully feared for their combat prowess. However, their only interest lies in crushing their enemies, rather than tactics or strategy. Because of this blind violence, Half Trolls never rise to leadership positions in a Far Harad battle company, and may not be promoted to Heroes.
