Hi all,
I know this place looks real deserted so i thought I'd liven it up a bit...
been thinking about updating my armies for the GT . I have been thinking about it and have decided to replace my Southern Fiefdoms with rohan (can't paint the hideous SKoDA without looking at my lovely Riders) .
My Rohan army at the moment would be
Eomer (horse shield)
Eowyn (horse armour)
Captain of Rohan (horse heavy armour and shield)
6 Rohan Royal Guard mounted with throwing weapons
7 Riders of Rohan with throwing weapons
8 Riders of Rohan with bows
Models 24 Points 498 Might 7
For the evil force not a lot has changed, so far I hope to incorporate
With King On fellbeast
harad Chief with spear and bow
8 Orcs with shields and hand weapons
12 Haradrim with spears
12 Haradrim with bows
5 Warg Riders with Shields hand weapons and throwng weapons
Points 502, Might 5 Models39
Thoughts
They both look rather nasty gandalf but I would consider trying to get another captain or theoden in instead of eowyn.
I think your lists are ok except for that i wouldn't include eowyn or royal guard in less it is at least a 750 point army
just my openion
Looks Ok Gandalf, but IMO Eowyn is rubbish: low defence, 1 wound and 1 attack are just pants - a 2nd captain would serve you better i think
Also, I think you are only allowed 33% models in each force with bows/thrown weapons - your good force has far too many.
And, one last thing, i don't know how experienced you are with these forces but you have to be VERY confident when using the Witch King. He is pretty hard, but also pretty frail.
My first force contained a Ringwraith on fellbeast and a couple of Orc Captains. I soon learned that two Mordor Trolls were a much better investment than the wraith. If combined with the might of a captain or use troll chieftain u have a very scary combo, and 2 of them to boot!
