| Post subject: | Mordor 350pts |
Hi all, Im putting together a 350pts army for a local tournament, Ive got most of it done but Ive got about 82pts left and Im not sure what the best use of it would be. This is what I have so far: Warband 1 Grishnahk 6 Morannon w/ Shield 6 Orcs w/Spear Warband 2 Orc Shaman 6 Morannon w/ Shield 6 Orcs w/Spear This leaves me with 82pts for a third warband..I was considering a captain and 7 orcs with bow, but would that really be effective? Or maybe a drummer with a couple more mordor orcs to make a super fast steam roller of a list. Its a tricky one so I would really appreciate some advice! Thanks, Ardboe |

Upgrade Grishnak to a named ringwraith or field a 2/0/1 wraith on horse. |

If you want some archery, use orc trackers instead. Normal orc bowmen are pretty bad. I wouldn't use points on a drummer at such a low point army, you'll be better off with a captain. Use another named orc for your third warband to get the extra might, Gorbag maybe? |

Interesting..Im not sure about spending 80pts on a wraith at such a low points level esp when I already have a shaman. I like the tracker/gorbag combo leaving my thirs warband like this: Warband 3 Gorbag w/Shield 6 Orc Trackers |

A budget wraith will do well at lower point value games as most of the heroes you'll encounter will have 1 or 2 will at most, making it easier to transfix them. However, 6 might plus fury at 350pts is tasty and you have a nice ratio of Morannons : Mordor Orcs. Maybe playtest it before the event? That's the easiest way to see if something works. I'm not sure the trackers are worth it though, 6 orc bow shots won't do a great deal. I would go for more Mordor Orcs/ Morannons personally, or even throw in a few spectres to mess with my opponents spear dudes. |
