As prince of Erebor, Thorin held a position of respect and honor among the dwarven hosts who marched to war in his grandfather's name. Even as a young man, Thorin possessed impressive skill at arms and the courage to match it. This came in handy when Smaug caused such terrible devastation to his home, and even more so in the great Battle of Moria many years later. In that battle, when all hope seemed lost and Durin's line faced extinction, Thorin prevailed despite the odds and earned the nickname 'Oakenshield'.
Thorin's companion and comrade-in-arms, Dwalin is one of the most skilled fighters, and perhaps the strongest dwarf, in all of Erebor. When Thorin escaped Smaug's wrath, Dwalin and his brother Balin were at his side, and years later they remained so at the Battle of Moria. In close combat there is no dwarf more unflinchingly violent than Dwalin and, when armed with his two axes 'Grasper' and 'Keeper', he is capable of taking a bloody count of his enemy.
Wherever Dwalin traveled, he was sure to find his older brother, Balin. Wise even in his youth, Balin was the type of Dwarf others looked to for wise counsel, although he was not lacking in skill at arms. At the Battle of Azanulbizar, Balin joined Thorin in rallying the wavering dwarven hosts, charging to victory across the corpse-strewn slopes alongside his beloved kinsman.
Thorin, Dwalin and Balin are the main heroes in the Erebor army list. Thorin carries a sword and the makeshift oak shield from which he later took his name, while Dwalin wields his trusty pair of axes and Balin his mace sword.
The set contains three resin miniatures: Thorin, Dwalin and Balin in his youth, supplied with 3 Citadel 25mm round bases.
