The Thranduil's Halls warrior is a test for color scheme. Working on the mounted version now after trying this color scheme out. Once I have finished those I will go back and work on my serpent guard.I painted 14 Rohan Royal Guard but I am not taking pics of all of them.

Rohan Royal Guard
This will double the number of Rohan Royal Guard that I can deploy (painted that is), the trick was matching the ones i painted over five years ago. Some of the paint I originally used had either dried up or I ran out and there is no perfect match. This was also the first time I airbrushed on a matte varnish. Now working on the mounted versions.

Rangers and Dunedain with a special guest
Looking at these pictures, it looks like the new light I installed in my office is a little brighter than the one I removed, I will have to figure something out for other pics. Here are the finished models from the previous post. With The Terror of Arnor as a side dish. I just finished some 14 Rohan Royal Guard, once they are based I will post them.....but who am I kidding, once I get around to it I will post them. Also have to get the mounted versions done.

Eves of Midlothian 800 points LoTR (Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game)
Fred would be better at this than me.
Here is the army I played with:
Warband 1 18/18
Suladân the Serpent Lord with Horse;
6 Haradrim Warrior with Bow with poisoned arrows; Spear;
6 Haradrim Warrior with Spear;
6 Abrakhân Merchant Guard
---- Warband 2 11/12
Haradrim Chieftain with Horse;
1 Haradrim Warrior with Banner
3 Haradrim Raider
3 Serpent Guard
4 Abrakhân Merchant Guard
---- Warband 3 5/12
Râza, Fang of the Serpent
5 Haradrim Warrior with Bow with poisoned arrows; Spear;1 Haradrim Watcher of Karna with Bow with poisoned arrows;
--- Corsairs of Umbar ----
Warband 5/18
Dalamyr, Fleetmaster of Umbar
4 Corsair Reaver
1 Corsair Arbelaster
--- Warband 2 5/12
Corsair Bo'sun with Spear; Shield;
4 Corsair Reaver
1 Corsair Arbelaster
Over the course of the tournament I faced a numbers of armies, but I learned quickly a couple of things:
Abrakhan guard are great, Str 4 and chop go a long way in killing high Def. enemies.
Always remember the reaver special rule to get that +1 to wound, I forgot the entire tournament :(.
Keep Suladan close to your lines, his banner effect is great. Same with Bo Sun.
I really need to spread my army and organize a bit better. 18 in one warband and 5 in another is not good.
The watcher is better without the bow IMHO.
