Well I'm back!!!

Me and my bro want to start balanced small armies.

He really wants a pure uruk hai army.

I will either.play minas truth ( infantry though I want a siege weapon or.2 look so cool)
Other choices are dol guldor, moria (monsters).

Playing 750 points.

Could you guys post some suggestion lists for.both of us.don't need.to show points.

for the uruk army
vrasku and some crossbows is really strong
thrydan is pretty scary albiet lowish fight value (if you dont mind using him as he technically isnt an uruk but is in the isengard section)
either lurtz or ugluk (i tend to feel ugluk is better)
if he doesnt want to throw in orc spears then get like 12 swords 24 pikes (or however many you need to fit the point cap)
if you used the numbers above you can have saruman, ugluk and thrydan lead then vrasku with a warband of crossbows

i think ultimately it comes down to which your brother likes the sound of then refining it

I thought about hardly and crossbows they sound really good. He down't like orcs so it will be the larger blobs. Are beserkers any good?

I have more thoughts for my army:
Fellbeasts look badass might have to get one
How is.black guard supported by orc spears?
I really like the mouth and.want him or a Nazgul.

I find berserkers are good and the best use of them comes when you can run them with a captain and call a heroic combat kill them then move the berserkers in to help out other combats. Due to having 2hand weapons they can wound D6 on a 4+, the downside of that of course is -1 on your roll to win combat.

Sadly I think that most wraiths on a felbeast are still to weak as they only have one wound but the witch king with flail and crown on a felbeast would be damn scary.

I haven't used the black guard so I cant really say. For orcs id recommend gothmog everyday as it makes the enemy consider whether they want you to have a free heroic action.
