Hello there!
I am back to the game after a very, very long time and need some help regarding army building...
I'm going to take part in a 600 pts tournament soon and I'm considering what changes can I make in my High Elf army (Twins, Erestor, high elves).
Here is what I was thinking about:
High Elves:
Elladan and Elrohir in heavy armours
4 High Elf Warriors with spears
2 High Elf Warriors with shields
4 High Elf Warriors with bows and spears
Lothlórien og Mirkwood:
Thranduil, King of Mirkwood with bow and armour
4 Mirkwood Guard with elf bows and wood elf spears
3 Galadhrim Warriors with shields
4 Guards of the Galadhrim Court
The White Council:
Galadriel, Lady of Light
600 points, 25 units, 12 Might.
I have never tried Galadriel-Thranduil combo, but it looks promising as enemy models would have to pass modified -1 courage to attack my troops - this would be very helpful considering that i have only 25 models... Galadriel makes Twins resistant for magic, so they should be able to do their killing job without problems - and with support of 4x F6 pikes they shouldn't worry about low rolls that much (if I manage to maintain shield wall). Well-placed Nature's Wrath can be also very helpful.
I also get 4 Mirkwood Guard archers that hit on 2+, can do spear-support and use shielding. I could exchange them to Galadhrim Warriors with bows (also for the looks), what gives me +1 model.
Alternatively I'd also be happy to use more Galadhrim Warriors (cause they are cool models). Gil-Galad on horse is also welcome, or any other changes that would rise my numbers... Cause 25 troops would still be a probem, right?
I would really appreciate any advice from you guys
