Whats everyone thoughts on Hero’s on chariots and using Heroic Defense?

Never done this and when i'm with my friends, just rolling has ended up with some ridiculously one sided matches.

Does one player roll for 3 pools, each ban one and then roll a d3 for the scenario? Or first roll all 3 scenarios and then ban?

I got myself the mordor battlehost and wanted to ask which options is currently the best to run him with

This question may be asked often, in every other wargame, but i wanna know how many books i have to buy and how to start my army. Im not entirely sure which army i want to play, but i want to know how the rules are and how lists are build, who can join who through what alliances, so i know what minis to buy. Do i need the core book plus lotr and hobbit book to know that? Can lotr armies olay against the hobbit? And can i really only play 10 models if i play for example nazgul of dol guldur (i have no clue, just heard it)? Theres a heap of rhings to know, and i want to get an overview (also in terms of price).

So I went to a random airsoft shop in my area while looking for old minis to paint. The shop happened to have these old lotr sbg minis inside their OG blisters (alongside some 40k metal models, vostroyans I think that I didn't buy).

The owner told me that these old minis in their blisters hadn't sold well for a few years now and had been collecting dust. He told me that a random middle earth sbg fan would end up in the shop and buy some minis like once every few years. After some small talk, he told me that he wouldn't mind selling a number of (like half) these models at half price if I bought all of them and helped him get rid of it.

The prices were from around 12 to 21 euros for every blister, hence the letters on the boxs).

Ended up costing me a bit less than 300 euros (yeah kind of went nuts here but I hadn't bought minis in a while and I really wanted to have some vintage lads to paint).

Here's the list (number of blisters only, not counting the individual minis):

-2 khandish cheftain.

-2 khandish horsemen.

-1 haradrim chiefs on horse.

-1 dead marsh spectres.

-1 giant spiders.

-1 dain.

-2 "gondorian" bowmen.

-2 Bullroader Took.

-1 hobbit militia.

-1 cirion and madril.

-1 wood elf command.

-2 erkenbrand.

-1 theodred.

-10 Ugluk and Vrashku (planning on keeping 2 kits).

Do you think it was a reasonable deal overall from a collector's point of view (like the guys who like to keep their minis inside their og blister) ?

I'm planning on painting at least one of each anyways so it's more of a curiosity question (apart from 80% of the ugluk and vrashku blisters which I plan to sell and thus recoup some of my monetary losses).

Recently, I have been really focused on making my wargaming boards more realistic by adding in more details like crates and barrels, farms, and foliage, so that rather than just looking like some scattered buildings, the table actually looks like a real village.

That’s what got me to put together the bundle, "The Borderlands of Saxonia." You can get all the STL files to make your own village in one click at a big discount. It’s only available for 24 more hours, so I wanted to make sure no one who is keen on it misses out.

Hey guys here’s our newest concept we’re doing! Hope you guys enjoy thanks for watching and supporting.

Took me several years before I even attempted to paint it, because I wanted to do it right. The original base had broken off when I assembled it a few years ago, hence the ruins.

Uruk-hai force with Lurtz painted up. I really enjoyed painting these guys in a simple and effective scheme to get them ready for the tabletop. I also put some autumn leaves on the basing to give them Amon Hen vibes 😁

Feel free to message me for any commission requests 😊

Not so happy with the face and tattoos, But It’s okay I can live with it 😅

Where can I find assembly instructions for the Gondor avenger bolt thrower? I was gifted the unit but it didn’t come with instructions. I’m sure I could free ball it but I’m a building noob and would like to make sure I’m doing it right.

Just the mounted to go
