Gimli is different from Aragorn and Legolas in that he's mostly a close fighter. He can throw axes when you need to have a distance weapon, but he concentrates on the in-close combat. In the Mines of Moria level, he chooses to bring along Aragorn with him. So actually he's always present in the Mines of Moria regardless of who you choose to go through it - either he's the lead or he's the 'helper'. The other levels all are either you alone, or you with both of the other two. So gameplay is about exactly the same. Even the button combos are pretty much the same so you don't have to relearn which buttons to mash :)
