| Post subject: | Cheapo 200 Point Help |
Recently I convinced a non wargaming friend of mine to try the Hobbit/SBG as his first war game. He likes the idea of playing a game with the rest of our gaming group but he, of course, isn't so into the price. He wants to be a good army. Where do I start him off? Christmas is coming up so I could buy him a box or some paints and brushes and I could convert him up a Captain. I want to try making this army fairly cheap. Thanks guys

I think either Gondor or old Dwarves are the best options. The models are pretty popular and cheap, and high defence means that these armies are pretty forgiving, even when you're making many mistakes. I'd go with these. |

Both Elves (Galadhrim the easiest from a single box) and Dwarves can build a 200pts army from a single box, if using some simple conversions for a hero and banner. Could be: Galadhrim Captain with Shield 3 Galadhrim Warriors w Elven blade 4 Galadhrim Warriors w Elf bow 3 Galadhrim Warriors w shield, spear 1 Galadhrim Warrior w banner or Dwarf King, two-handed weapon, throwing axes 1 Dwarf Warrior, shield, banner 3 Dwarf Warriors, shield 2 Dwarf Warriors, two-handed weapon 4 Dwarf Warriors, Dwarf bow Both a decent enough start for any larger army too. Of course, plenty of heroes are available for cheap from ebay and the likes, but I suppose these are some of the very cheapest basic armies possible. |
