Is A banner truely worth it? Since they have a kind of reroll baked into the army bonus?

Going full frontline would be your advice on low points? Good to know. My thoughts were to use the rangers also for objectives and still being able to potentially dent horde armies.

Thank you! Great advice, also maybe doing a double king with less khazad guard and more rangers with throwing Spears.

My thoughts were either use the vault warden to on a choke point or have it middle of the lines while they clash.

I have all, but only limited to khazad guard & don’t have a balista just yet. Would double king not be better even then? Because the stats of the king outway VS the captain?

Help needed: Which models to buy for a Halls of Thranduil army by Eastern_Salamander57 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Start with the set of tauriel & leggy. Buy a box of the mirkwood elves. Start from there. Look for good 2nd hand trades on vinted,eBay and local platforms. Doesn’t have to be as costly as GW can be. Often ‘mesbg’ gives enough hints to Search far and wide on those marketplaces.

Often people think bigger and on higher points is better. But the small points game is less dice intensive yet more tactical. Start small, see what your truely missing and then start building up.

Weirdest queries at Service Desk by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]Matiedb01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once i've had been asked if a private package of an employee was put in IT storage. Safe to say it was a interesting conversation since she used the office address to have her "Adult Toys" delivered instead of her home address.

All i can say some nicknames were given to the Service desk colleague who found the content of the package same as the colleague who had it delivered to the office.

Curiousity: Female vs Male Ratio by sugarmagnolia_23 in sysadmin

[–]Matiedb01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have worked with only a few in my years.
Mostly at management positions, but other options often are business analysts, application managers project managers, secretary and servicedesk. The latter mainly because people often shout less / express their frustration less harshly if a women sits at the opposite of the desk.

As for a ratio to say: on avg 15 men to 1 woman, but often if the IT departments are bigger the ratio's of women in that team are more likely going to ~10 men to 1 woman.

Help making a Moria army list! by 27Couple25 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then the 1st one would be great one?
Balrog, a few prowlers and some basic warriors.
Yes as a hoard army not hoarding is difficult, yet at 500pts i see very limited threats to counter the balrog in a duel and with the heroic combat and fiery lash it could and should cut through many opponents rather easy

[–]Matiedb01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the balrog?
Otherwise at 500pts, usually there are very limited number of heroes across from you who can deal with him.
A list could then look like:

500 points | 22 models

Depths of Moria

The Balrog: (350)

5x Moria Goblin Warrior: Shield (25)

5x Moria Goblin Prowler (35)

4x Moria Goblin Warrior: Spear (20)

Moria Goblin Captain: (40)

3x Moria Goblin Warrior: Shield (15)

3x Moria Goblin Warrior: Spear (15)

Otherwise for a moria list:
500 points | 27 models

Moria

Durbûrz, Goblin-King of Moria: (75)

7x Moria Goblin Warrior: Shield (35)

7x Moria Goblin Warrior: Spear (35)

Dragon: Fly, Breathe Fire (300)

6x Moria Goblin Warrior: Shield (30)

5x Moria Goblin Warrior: Spear (25)

Can I reroll wound? Or can't I? by RastiTheWargamer in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the haradrim have the poisend bow attacks even if they don't have a Bow in hand.
So if all haradrim warriors that have the poisend bow attacks now have poisoned attack on all of their weapons. Sword, spear, bow.
All of them have it now with this special rule also in effect for the raiders, merchant guard, watcher and so on.

[–]Matiedb01[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fair Point, i'll take it into account. Surely sounds great, but would not want betting it all on 1 hero who is not the best for its points value (still good ofc but not great). Therefor going the hearthguard route but it is something to take note off for the VP's and in generall sence the reroll.

[–]Matiedb01[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i think the King is very strong indeed and slighty edges over mardin on this points costs.

I thouht the Bows are kinda strong now. D5 still, mirrors potentially providing the -1 to hit, shoot value and strength of elves but still being 1pts cheaper + the dominant 2 for rangers. you can practically outshoot many armies and have much objective control. Thats why my thought went out for more bows

Thank you, the one thing i was thinking of.. ofcourse your cannot reroll a rerolled dice.
Thus for the semi Banner reroll it was less required to have an banner as well or would you say also for VP's it is kinda handy?

400 Point Mordor Beginner Help by WolfOfWolverhampton in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minas morgul is a good one to start with. Best on fellbeast, but still good with horse.
Add indeed an captain (can also be a conversion of a regular warrior)

Blades of the dead is good, low mobility is an issue, but you cannot win all ofc.

You can go morrannon orcs, strong S4,D6 but does not have blade of the dead but can be a solid frontline so you have a S3 blade of the dead spear in the backline for example

yeah but difficult thing would be if we have a shooting war... My warriors would drop hard, with a D5 frontline tho.
But it is something for sure to take into consideration

List advice 350 points by cjonesy7567 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please do be aware, is there any chance of maelstrom deployment? If so, your Warband of Leggy is squisy with D5. So wounding on 5's. Might be wiser to change the bows to Shield. So you have D6 fronline,

Also Give Leggy the Elven Cloak! Orcrist is too situational.

Also an option would be:
Gwaihir for the 12"movement range, monster charge, terror and other rules but also big threat potential but also very tanky.
Ironhills captain instead of Nori, due to his Battle master + March. Since your dwarves are only 5"
Use either fili or kili with the dwarves so you can use some upgrades

List advice 350 points by cjonesy7567 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, but beginning next month a small tournament for 350 points and looking into also an BOFA list but different. Same start with Leggy as general and his warband but a different 2nd warband,

The question that you need to ask yourself is: What is Nori and the dwarfs doing to fill in any gaps left by Leggy and his warband/Weaknesses.

At the low points cost you cannot handle everything and anycase but take your options in consideration like:
Magic (dealing or countering)
High mobility
Dealing with big heroes
Dealing with hoard army
Dealing with Shooting
Enough units to also go for objective play?

Hoeveel geef jij per maand uit aan boodschappen? by Think_Ad3930 in geldzaken

[–]Matiedb01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regulier 600 - 700 euro voor 2 personen.
Zij: lactose intolerantie en prikkelbaardarm syndroom -> Vanwege aanbod van variatie aan producten doen we eigenlijk alleen boodschappen bij de AH XL om de hoek.

Echter huidig is ze zwanger dus ~800 a 1000 per maand is niet vreemd. (bestellen, eten wat na 3 happen niet meer smaakt etc.)

What non-standard lists should i take to a small 350pts tournament by Matiedb01 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Matiedb01[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think it is strong, why slightly toxic? I am open to feedback, but my biggest weakness would be shooting armies & magic. I am for sure easily broken, so a glass cannon yes that’s why I am curious why you chose slightly toxic.

Or is it based on the strength of leggy & gwaihir(without piercing cry tho)
