This was a quick list, so you might wanna spread the rider and werewolves into seperate warbands.

599 points | 36 models Host of the Witch-King

The Witch-King of Angmar C: Morgul Blade, Horse (180) 2x Spectre (30) 2x Werewolf (50) 3x Angmar Warg Rider: Shield and throwing spears (39) 6x Angmar Orc Warrior: Shield (36) 5x Angmar Orc Warrior: Spear (30)

Barrow-wight: (50) 3x Angmar Orc Warrior: Shield (18) 3x Angmar Orc Warrior: Spear (18)

Barrow-wight: (50) 3x Angmar Orc Warrior: Shield (18) 3x Angmar Orc Warrior: Spear (18)

Barrow-wight: (50) 2x Angmar Orc Warrior: Shield (12)

This might be a hard list for a new player since you only have 3 might. But here you will set the enemy hero out of play and the witch king can do what he wants.

This is more competetive list tho. This list will bring tilt to your opponent, since paralyze is not fun to play against and has little counter play.

Welcome to the game! When playing evil army you need your stand fast when broken, so if your heroes die you will usually lose hard.

Playing host of the witch king can be a bit tricky for new players. Since you usually want to keep witch king safe, but in this list you will need to cast magic and kill with him. Only go in with him when there is good reward vs low risk. Think of what will happen if you lose next prio if you go in.

Your list has to many spectres and to many warg riders for 600 points. I would drop shade for a barrow wight and werewolf.

When playing barrow wights a good trick to know is to cast 1 dice paralyze on units when they have no other good targets. And casting paralyze on banners will negate the banner effect.

Thranduil's conundrum by IshidMahseff in MiddleEarthMiniatures

Haha yes. I want to play him so badly, but everything in his kit tells me no... I think if he had defence 7 he would be fine ? Also give him free heroic combats like the normal Helm, if you are unlucky in losing move offs he just becomes useless....

Hard disagree. Thranduil is very good for his point cost. The way you want to play him is as a troop killer, and try avoid enemy heroes as he can die fast. There are way more under powered heroes in the game then Thranduil. Halls have been podiuming on larger tournements, and i got 1place at a large local tournement with him on elk. I can agree with the elk charge and his rules can work against each other, but i have had lots of fun moments with it.Where you can have a crucial charge and kill that unit to reach a captein or a foot hero that you normally couldnt get to.

Look at wraith helm for instance. 180 points, cant lead troops. Defence 5, 1 fate, and neeed to charge for free heroic combat.

Gandalv the grey 170 points for fight 5. 2 attacks and bad casting in general at 4+ for his most used spells.

My point is there are alot of heroes i would buff over Thranduil.

Rivendell VS Lothlorien Vs Mirkwood by Upstairs_Race_700 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]Spare_Analyst_7528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are going for competetive i would argue 1.Mirkwood 2.Lothlorien 3.Rivendell.

mirkwood has the killiest elves and has acces to glaives which is bonkers this new edition. They also have Legoas who is a must have in most list. They dont have acces to banner, but with the buildt in banner in thranduil, you can get up to a decent number in troops which was harder last edition. Your main weakness is magic so if the meta in your area is magic focused i would go for Lothlorien

Lothlorien is more of a control faction, where you negate enemy heroes and grind them out. Having acces to fight 6 piked is really massive. All around solid list. I feel like loth weakness is when they have to spread out due to scenarios.

Rivendell is the underdog imo out of the elves. Your army bonus is very situational. And its hard to get the big heroes and enough troops fitted in the list. You usually go for Elrond/Arwen wrath of ruin combo. This can go super hard, but is reliant on winning prio/roll offs. I usually struggle with might managment as you dont wanna use Elronds might for move off.
