The last of last weekends LOTR AAR: http://lostpict.6sided.net/2013/03/16/l ... 09mar2013/

This game required the most prep work and was probably the most satisfying.

I really liked this one, including the "lessor Ents" I think was a great scenario rule. Your line of "Needless to say the Orcs did not like the rocks," was great! I was literally laughing over that one :) Also thanks for the data on alt Ent models. The lack of variants has always discouraged me from purchasing any

OMG this was by faaar the best battle report I've ever read it was like telling a story of a battle with pics and everything.

I think that's how battle reports should be written

As always a great report but the best thing was by far the scenery yet again. :-D Wow long did it take you to make it and which parts are bought?
As you can see I am very impressed with your work :yay:

Most of it is purchased:

walls are from Ziteredes
tower is from Monolith Icon
mat is Zuzzy
pits are GW
siege equipment are GW
platform is from Angry Badger
trees are mix of RealScenics, GW, and bits and bobs.

Not long to pull it together, mostly just painted for various other purposes with the exception of the tower which was always viewed as a home for
:saruman and :lurtz

The wall sections are about $20 to $25 each. It varies by size.

Vert nice report just 1 thing you forgot, i nthis scenario the ents are fearless which means they really dont test for anything, they are pocessed and full with anger... if you could and saw your friends dead would you run or rage in battle even if you died from it? I think you would fight to avenge them. Also the ents been really bad luckly on rolls cause they got huge courage values.
You gonna be amazed on how 1 ent and shove off 1 wall section with just a slam which is what the good side should have done, stay in range and throw rocks to the vital sections of the walls and that seige bow engine.
But either way was interesting :)
