can a unit increase it's bold status if it occupy's a stronghold and its in a bold formation? for example if an archer is in a stronghold and it is supported by two other units will it get bold*2. please help

Yup, you've got it - bold "stacks".

Replace the archer in your example with an Iron Dwarf Crossbow unit, and you've got 3 stacked levels of ''boldness''!!

And play a Lore card that gives +1 Bold and you can be up to Bold 4!

Which leads to the play of the bold trump card: Fearless.  Bold inifinity :)

So if I'm bold four can I ignore four flags?

Yes, that is correct.  Bold X = X Flags ignored.

Sweet. That changes some stuff.

If dwarf unit is on a rampart next to a stronghold with two suporting units your bold5! add a lore card your Bold six!

A tad bold happy there  - bold4 and 5 respectively.

The original OP asked about a Stronghold and Support to get to Bold 2.

Then we added the Dwarves to make it 3.

Then we added the Lore card to make it 4.

So switching the Dwarve to a rampart (or any adjacent landmark) to get the +1 "influence" of the stronghold over adjacent hexes, you are only at 5 bold.

Thanks for all the reply's everyone.

It talks about this in the rulebook. I'll look up the page number.

Make the Dwarf unit a Clan Chief Dwarf unit and the bold just gets bigger.

Enough talk of damnable dwarves!  What about glorious gobbo's?!?!  A mighty 3 Bold for a strongholded, supported, magicked group?  4 if you give them a musician, right?  Plus they're twice as fast when "tactically withdrawing" from the enemy should their Boldness prove "unwise".

Surely the world must realise the might of the green skinned mercs-with-a-mouth-but-no-bite?

Stupid goblins. Unless you keep them in triangles there worthless.
