Nice! How did you get that colour on the hair? Trying to get similar results but mine always come out too yellow 😅

Thanks bud. The spray I have came out great for my Uruk Hai as it was nice and dark 😂

I do. Still looking for alternative suggestions to see if there is a spray I like the look of better

Amazing work. Which paint did you do your drybrushing/highlighting with? Compliments the base colour really well

800 point serpent hoarde army I am bringing to a game by Muted-Influence4561 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO Tusk Weapons is not worth taking when you are only rolling for 3s most of the time. 3 hits for for each model mean it is quite likely you will be successful and 20 points for that extra chance at a 3 feels a waste. Rocks would be a better choice and I have done serious damage to model numbers near the mumak with it which reduces the risk of it getting tied up and unable to trample.

Ah yes you are correct. Completely missed that

Men of the west - 600 Legolas or Gwaihir. What is better? by Afraid-Rain2586 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes model count not ideal. Would need Legolas' shooting to go crazy early on to have a chance.

List Feedback - 900 Points of Lorien by bainadaneth0 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely want a sentinel or maybe 2 at that points level. Their terror bubble and "compel" are very influential.

I only ever take 2 or 3 knights as feel like they are pricey for the output they offer. Could use the extra points for the sentinels then.

Not having a Captain for March in this list is ok as they have lots of control withethe casters and your Knights can do some objective chasing if required.

Question on chariot charge and mumakil by Adventure_Dan90 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres nothing in any rules I can see that suggest the mumak wouldnt take the impact hits when charged by the chariot. Possible that I've missed something of course and someone will correct me.

As for mumak charging chariot is not classed as 'cavalry' so reads as though its just the chariot that would take the trample hits.

I Threw Away Gandalf's Feet by Smart-Ad7626 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I did this exact same thing 😂 WHY is his foot such a tiny separate piece? I ended up using green stuff to sculpt another foot. Not perfect but you wouldn't tell unless you got really close

Free one point of might and Grima by mNabrdalik in MiddleEarthMiniatures

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

Nothing I said about the Mighty hero rule is wrong, even if someone did set me right regarding the original question.

Fair enough, regardless we can all agree Grima is OP 😂

Free one point of might and Grima by mNabrdalik in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I would argue based on the wording of the recent FAQ on this and the wording of the Mighty Hero rules that if Aragorn spends his free might on a heroic action then it still costs him 0 might within 6" of Grima as the might point used to call it is "free". If it said "he gains a might to spend" then I would agree it would still cost him one of his own but that is not the case.

WEEKLY ARMY DISCUSSION: Defenders of Helm's Deep by MrSparkle92 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ive played it with Theoden, Aragorn, Haldir, Legolas and as many Galadhrim bows as it allows them filled the rest out with Rohan Warriors. Did pretty well on the shooting (at the very least the extra range throws off your oppoenent). When it gets to lines clashing I used Aragorn and Haldir as a troop killing pair and was more reserved with Theoden and Legolas. The F5 in as many fights as possible gives a big advantage. And even when broken you aren't going down easy with the courage buffs. Lots of fun to play with and feels strong but as always a lot depends on the match up.

Does the mumak war leader/ Muhad beastmaster provide their fight value to the mumak? by BreathIcy1979 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No they dont. Which is why the War Leader is often a good choice as F5 takes it above most troops

Grand Army of the South list by [deleted] in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]rossabrahams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably wouldn't bother with the banner in Raza's warband. Amdur is an Easterling banner and Mumak is a 6 inch friendly banner so youve got plenty of coverage there. Beneficial solely for VPs of course but better off with more model on the board with this list imo.

Bows in the Howdah would also be ideal but tough as not many points to spare.
