If no one near can oblige I can go pick him up.

Anyone up for a game of LOTR/Hobbit for a bit of practice before the campaign starts? I have spare armies if anyone needs them.

Let me check with Matt (brightblade) as he might be after a game...

Sweet!

I would love a game! What's this about a campaign?

How would you like to play? Points? Which army are you using? Etc...

We can do points if you like? 500-600? That seems a fairly standard points game. We could do one one of the 6 new scenarios (in the the front of the source books),lords of battle, high ground..... Etc... I believe you have to roll to see which one you get. There all based around victory points rather than to the death.

I can play high elves, uruks, Mordor, Harad, dwarves, gondor, rohan.....(list is endless). However, I'm playing Harad in the campaign, so would be good to give them a run about. Just a word of warning I would have to play a Mumak to make 500-600 points of pure Harad. Or I can play with a mix of Harad and Mordor if you don't want to face a Mumak. (I can understand why).

A Harad army I can make for 600 points;

1 Mumak with rocks + tusk weapons 315 points
12 haradrim warriors with bow + shooting upgrade (+3 shoot value) 108 points
9 haradrim with spear 63 points
3 haradrim with spear and courage upgrade (4) 24 points
Either hasharin or suladan (both 90 points)

This makes 600 points


Or I can make 500 Harad with Mordor ally

Knight of umbar on armoured horse
6 wargs

9 Harad with bow and shoot upgrade
6 Harad with spear
3 Harad with spear and courage upgrade
1 hasharin
1 chieftain with spear

Which would you prefer!!!

I don't mind. Never played against a mumak. Shall we keep it small? Easy to transport?

I will bring my stuff along, probably use elves as I won't get to use them in the campaign. My army has no cavalry as of yet. Not painted my horsey elves but can do 500 or so points. I have some scenery too so I'll bring that.

Great. Looking forward to it!

Rob, scenario wise we can just roll one up from the main rulebook. They are pretty cool, more about getting heads in rules and rolling dice! Whaddya reckon?

Rolling dice and heads in rules works for me! Lets keep it to 500 points and no Mumak.

I have a few hills and bits of scenery as well which I can bring.

Yes, looking forward to it to.
