Might be interested. I bought some Uruk Hai a while ago but haven't painted them yet. Are they in the book?

It's a skill they can get from 2 of the 5 skill charts. I think that Rohan is the only one that gets a free skill on their heroes.

Early Feb should be fine for me.

What faction were you thinking of, and do you have the book?

RE: Middle Earth Battle Companies - Russell - 29-01-2018

No idea and nope - I used to play LoTR a very long time ago - a friend sold me on battle companies whilst I was in Nottingham this weekend

Do you still have some LOTR figures? There are lots of different warbands in the book, so if you have some there is almost certainly a warband which uses them. The maximum you need for a starting warband is about 8.
