- "Thorin III is a hot tempered, young dwarf. Much a brawler like his father Dáin, he never turns down a fight and always seeks a new challenger. His heritage and skill earned him the rank of Captain, though he prefers to fight on his own. In times of peace Thorin III patrols the Iron Hills with a small group of guards, fighting off beasts and eastern raiders."
- —Adamin (Edain Team)

Strategy[]
Thorin III Stonehelm is a powerful hero, but more situational than others. While Dain and Gimli are always great choices, Thorin becomes valuable when the enemy uses heroes or monsters. If that's the case, using him is a great option.
However, for Thorin to reach his full potential, his abilities must be used at the right moments, so he requires a lot of attention during battle. If you find it difficult to keep an eye on Thorin, it's better to choose other options.
