The Book of Sir Gilbert
The Book of Sir Gilbert
Crest of the Valkyrie - Jandar's Flag Bearer ![]() NOTE: THIS OFFICIAL CARD IMAGE IS INCORRECT IN LISTING THE COST AS 100 POINTS. IT IS 105 POINTS. Character Bio: Sgt. Drake Alexander adjusts his uniform as he approaches an encampment of beautifully adorned tents. He has always felt the urge to make himself ³presentable² when he enters the camp of the Westons. Something about looking up at the proud lion flying against the azure field of the Weston¹s banner that makes a man feel the need to show a sort of humility and reverence. "Hail, Sir Drake," calls one of the knights of Weston. "You¹ve come to see the progress, have you?" "I have. How is it looking?" "Come and see for yourself, he is just finishing now." Drake is ushered into a nearby tent, the inside of which casts a warm glow by the series of lanterns that light it. A wooden dummy in the corner wearing a stunning breastplate, wrought of gold and silver, catches Drake¹s eye. A tall; well-built man steps forward to greet Drake with a hardy handshake. The man grabs onto a wooden staff leaning against the wall of the tent and swings it over in front of Drake. It is not just a staff, but a flag: Weston blue, finely embroidered in gold and white, bearing both the lion crest of Weston and the mark of Jandar. "Ah, the new standard. It is wonderful! Jandar will be very pleased. And that must make you Sir Gilbert! Well met!" (Hasbro) _________________________________________________________________ -Rulings and Clarifications-

How does he only cost 5 more points than Denrick, when he has 1 more life and only 1 less attack? Both his abilities are used to a far greater extent than Denrick's abilities. I'm not knocking Denrick's abilities, they just seem a lot more situational than Gilbert's abilities.

I think Gilbert works alot better with Jandar squads, that have Human Champion Bonding, than Denrick does.
I would place the markers on the Knights of weston (for example) and move Gilbert first, who then rolls for Jandars Dispatch; moving the knights for every Jandar symbol, then move the Knights after 'Berts turn is over. I like using this, it annoys my dad because i get to move quite a few figures in just one turn! |

I was wondering if anyone would get an A powerrating...
105 points seems kind of a weird cost number to me. |

Some useful information from the original Sir Gilbert thread which should probably go in here:

As for him being 105pts. compared to Denrick, 105 is hard to fit in sometimes since its such an odd point value. I like waffles! |

I was brainstorming possible Templar/Knights teams and i had Concan in as the Knight Enhancement guy but i was thinking that Gilbert may be a better substitute as he gives Attack +1 to adjacent figures (w/range 1) but not the extra defense. His Jandars Dispatch ability would be great to give the Templar added movement or even help keep the KoW close to the Templar. The KoW can also use Human champion bonding to move Gilbert first who in turn can move Templars/Knights forward.
So should you replace Concan for Gilbert, spending 25 extra points? I think i'd like to give it a try. |

I didn't really want to buy any of the flagbearers. I held out as long as I could. I got Gilbert first, and he's definitely worth the price of admission. For those annoyed by his point cost, get Alastair too for 215. I'd say that Alastair+Gilbert> Charos in most Valiant armies.

I've beaten my highest 'Valkyrie Dice (Jandar) Symbols Rolled'. I managed to get 9 Jandar symbols in a game the other night, the most I have had before that was 4 or 5!
