Good article, but you left out Hama...that makes him sad. :(
Nice job on it! :)

A good read, though I would have liked to also read some tactics, and a little more on the Heroes and their special abilities, like Erkenbrand's horn of Gamling's Banner.

Apart from that, it's good as a first article!

A good first article and very informative, and a good read too. But I think as Sean suggested would be a good idea for any future articles you write. Good job!

Hama is missing. There are other versions of Theoden and Eowyn missing and Grima Wormtongue deserves a mention at least.
8/10 which is a good score for a first article - now you know the ropes, you will get better and better!

It is clear to which king you pay fealty, mitch_rohan! Here is someone talking about his favourite army, trying to give a summary of its identity, its qualities and its possibilities. It shows that a well chosen army is more than a shoe box full of painted miniatures. A background-story like this helps you to give your collection a ‘soul’ of its own. Well done. And don’t hesitate to add your own pictures as I think you’re a skilled painter. 8)

Great read. You also believe in Rohan as a viable army!! Much appreciated. And I do agree that some neat tactics (I'm sure you have them stached somewhere :)) would be awesome too.

Well done with tthe article ! Not many gaming articles make it to the library, to be honest, we reject more of this type of article than any other.

On a positive note, we also rarely see constructive critisism with this forum, I think its great that the members have took the time to voice their opinions on it which are all valid points.

I think everyone reading this that has the desire to write such an article in the future should take these points into account and realise this type of article can never be perfect, therefore my point in posting this is to point members in the direction of the W.I.P forum (Work In Progress) and use it with regards to 'preparation' for writing a gaming article and get members input into it before submitting it...someone will always think of something that you forgot to mention :)
