Interest in Lord of the Rings Campaign?

[Rob Lainchbury]

You are allowed to use an ent. You may pick heroes from the Durins folk list and include an ent as a warrior with one of those warbands.

Just to clarify; between us in our teams (and two factions) we can we can mix and match our war bands from anything listed????

I'm happy to mix our army's and only take for our teams factions. (I know I queried last week if I could take wargs using the Knight of Umbar as a mordor contingent) <---- The answer was no - which was fair enough - stick to your teams factions. I just love warg riders

However, Mixing war band can get problematic for some armies with special rules. Haradrim, Easterlings and Arnor being a few. My suggestion would be to keep the war band legal as these special rules would possible a/ give an unfair advantage b/mess up the special rules.

For example; Harad can have a bow limit of 50% if there use only 4 types of unit (a,b,c,d) if type E is used in the force or contingent then it goes down to 33%. If I took an easterling captain and Used Type A units from Harad - this is a mixed war band from where??? what special rules do I use Harad or Easterlings.


Summing up; Personally I'm Happy to mix the army but not the war bands. Reasons above. Ultimately (as Chris say's) this is everyones campaign so I'm happy with democracy we can go ahead with the mixed war bands if everyone wants to, or not - I just thought it was a good point to point out

also I understand this makes it a bit difficult/ expensive to take an Ent I believe. Not sure what the option would be?!


Sorry Chris for giving you more things to think about!!!
