Source note: the last line of this ability is cut off at the edge of the card photo. The wording above is the card's printed text as far as it is legible; the final words after "does not affect Hatamoto Taro" are not visible in the photo and are not transcribed.

Valkyrie Dice
The Flagbearer abilities above refer to Valkyrie dice of each affiliation (Jandar, Utgar, Einar, Vydar, Ullar). The base Valkyrie die rules are in the Rise of the Valkyrie rulebook. The source gives no further text on the face symbols of these dice beyond what the abilities name:
- Skull and shield symbols are the general combat symbols.
- Each affiliation's own symbol is named in its Hero Card's ability (Jandar, Utgar, Einar, Vydar, Ullar).
- The die photo shows green Ullar dice with a red skull, a blue shield and a gold emblem face. Their meaning beyond the general skull and shield is not stated in the source.
Gaps in This Source
- No set rules insert, Army Card, or set contents list was found. The card photos show only the Hero Card side, so the set's other figures, Army Cards and any scenario are not transcribed.
- The function of the 20-sided die shown in the die photo is not stated in any source found.
- Only the Valkyrie die faces named in the Hero Card abilities are described above. The gold emblem face, and any other face not named by an ability, is not explained.
- The photos are low-resolution in places. Card text was read at the printed size; the one cut-off line is noted under Hatamoto Taro.
- BGG lists this as a deprecated entry (bggid 25044). The five packs have their own entries (467014 to 467018). The content here covers all five Flagbearer Hero Cards.
