Question regarding Valkyries resurect ability

By Persiatic, in Talisman Rules Questions

Hi

I tried searching about this but couldn't find anything so I hope you can help me.

I know that she only can ressurect followers if they are "killed" but there is a follower in the highlands which is called friendly giant I think that will fight in your place with strenght 6 or craft 3 and it especially says on the card that if the giant looses or has a stand-off it is killed . So we stumbled across this card last night when 1 guy was Valkyrie and he could just resurect it each time so he actually would never die in combat.

Of course I questioned a skill that can make you immortal in fight. So is this legit or have I missed somehting about valkyries skill?

Regards

Currently, yes, Valkyrie with Friendly Giant can't be beat in combat, FG will die, Valkyrie will resurrect it. You can still Toad her and then kill her, Reaper her, zap her with Spells (Finger of Death + Hydra Spell demonio.gif ). Valkyrie is a nice, solid character (essentially starting with 4/4 stats). I've only used her ability on effects that state killed (or slain).

Thanks for the quick response DAM.

That clairys stuff for tomorrows sessions. Also ye I noticed she has very nice starting stat's similar to the elf. I hope I get her in the games we are going to play tomorrow, then I will be going to the highlands quickly to hopefully get the giant early.

Tnx again
