Post subject: | 700 point tourney list help |
Hi guys, I am fairly new to the game but not to wargaming. I started playing Lotr SBG this summer and in a few weeks I will have my first tournament and I need help deciding what to field. I bought a lot of second hand miniatures and therefor I have quite the extensive collection. The tournament will have a few restrictions: Good may spend up to 350 points on named hero's and 350 points on monsters. Evil may spend up to 210 points on named hero's and 210 points on monsters. These restrictions are set in place because of the high prevalance of evil armies sporting monsters and nazguls. The army needs to be tailored towards the missions I will be facing: -Hold Ground -A domination variant with where you deploy on the long side and have 6 objectives. On a 1-3 you deploy 12' from the board edge and 4-6 12' from the middle line. -A custom mission with castered deployment: The board is divided in 6 compartments. For each warband you roll where it will deploy. Pure syngerie armies will not always work with these missions, so I think that each warband should has to be able to function on its on. And as a last note: Tolkien correctness is highely important in our tournaments, up to 5 points are awarded for Tolkien fluffiness. What models do I have in my collection: High Elves: Elrond Glorfindel 11 Elves with shield 11 Elves with Bow Lorien Elves and Mirkwood: Armoured Celeborn Galadriel Rumiel Legolas Haldir with armour Stormcaller Captain with bow Captain on Horse with Shield and Blade (can also function as non captain) 24 Galadrims (8/8/8) split 5 Galadrim Knights (2 shields/2 bows/1 banner) 2 Galadrim banners 1 Warhorn 12 Wood Elves (4/4/4) split Dwarves: Dain Balin Gimli Captain 2 Dwarven kings 15 Khazad Guard 2 Iron Guard 3 Warriors with shield 8 Warriors with two-Handed 10 Warriors with bow 1 Warrior with banner 12 Rangers (4 bows) Numenorean Elendil Isilidur 10 Sword and shield 4 Shield and spear Mordor and angmar: Witch King on foot both with and without crown Nazgul on horse (can function as normal Nazgul and Witch-King) Witch King on Fellbeast with Crown and Horned Fellbeast Gorbag with Shield Grishnak with Shield Shagrat War leader Shaman Taskmaster Troll Chieftain Shelob Black Numenorean Marshal 2 Barrow Wight Gulavhar 36 Orcs (18 spears/18 shields) 12 Morannon Orcs (6/6) split 6 Black Numenoreans on foot 5 Morgul Knights 6 Warg Riders (2/2/2) split and riders are removable 1 Mordor Troll 6 Converted Specters. I have two lists that I am considering at the moment: Elves: Celeborn -Heavy armour -Elven Blade -Shield 6 Spear 6 Shield Legolas with cloak 4/4/4 wood elves Haldir with Armour, Cloak and Bow 8 Galadrim with bow 1 Galadrim with spear 3 Galadrim knights with shields Or Mordor Witch-King 3 might 12 will 1 fate 6 Black Numenoreans 6 Orcs with spear Shagrat War Leader 5 Orcs with spears 6 Morannon Orcs with Shields Mordor Orc Shaman 6 Orcs with spears 6 Orcs with shields Mordor Troll Chieftain 5 Orcs with spears 5 Orcs with shields What do you think about these lists and what type of lists would you build for this tournament? Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance. |

I would suggest dropping one knight and the spear on the galadhrim in favour of some equipment on the heroes. A bow for Haldir, armour for legolas and an elven blade/shield for Celeborn. If you already have the heavy armour/shield/elven blade for celeborn then swap a knight for a Galadhrim with spear or shield and get the equipment for legolas and Haldir. Celeborn really needs his equipment to function well so it is a top priority to give him it. The armour for Legolas will help if he gets into combat and the bow on Haldir means he can actually use his special rule. I like your troop selection it is nicely themed and should be effective on the battlefield. Just remember to use each of your warbands in the way they are meant to be played and have fun!! |

Haha I forgot to add the Celeborn's gear and Haldirs bow. The whole idea of the list was to have two warbands that could put out alot of firepower, namely 7 shots from Legolas's squad and 10 from Haldir's squad, a harder hitting warband with Celeborn and three knights that can roam and help where needed or grab objectives. |
