hello! i need help to improve my good and evil armies for local tournament! there are different rules on this tournament for armies! max. model count is 50!

EVIL:

HARAD UNITED

Far Harad:
-Mahud King (shield) 80 pts.
-10x Mahud Warriors 110 pts.
-2x Mahud Raiders 42 pts.
-2x Half Troll 44 pts.

Serpent horde:
-Harad Chieftain (horse,warspear) 60 pts.
-16x Harad Warrior (spear) 96 pts.
-11x Harad Warrior (bow) 66 pts.
-6x Harad Raiders (warspear) 66 pts.

The Nazgul:
-Shadow Lord (dark steed) 130 pts.

points: 694
model count: 50
bow: 33%

so my Mahud king will lead the infantry together with Shadow Lord that will protect them from bow fire because we all know that harad has low D value and my Harad Chieftain will lead cavalary. My question is if it is better to give my shadow lord dark steed that he can protect cavalary or it´s better to leave him with my infantry?!

GOOD:

REINFORCEMENT´s ON PELLENOR FIELDS:

Grey Company:
-Elladan & Elrohir (horse, heavy armour) 170 pts.

Tower of Ecthelion:
-Beregond 25 pts.
-Captain of MT (shield) 55 pts.
-14xWoMT (shield) 112 pts.
-8xWoMT (shield,spear) 72 pts.
-6x GotFC (shield) 66 pts.
-6x KoMT (shield) 84 pts.
-12x Citadel Guard (longbow) 120 pts.

total points: 704 pts. (yes i know it´s 4 points over but we can go 5 point over point limit because this is friendly tournament )
model count: 50
bow: 26%

twins will lead cavalary to outflank the enemy and the infantry will do the rest of the job.

please help me improve those 2 armies! have fun! tnx

anyone??

For your Evil army, keep the horse for the Shadow Lord. It allows him to get into much more effective positions to cast his spells. Also, you've got enough points to include one more Haradrim, in case you haven't noticed.

For your Good army, drop the Guards of the Fountain court and swap them for more Warriors of Minas Tirith. A banner would be nice as well.

max. model count is 50 models on this tournament!;)

Fifty models for a seven-hundred points game? That's not very many.

yes i know but i can´t help! :/

That sure are to few miniatures in a 700 points game.

I don't know if I like the elladan and Elrohir leading your cavalry.
They don't have their special rules on horses?
If they don't, you might add in faramir on a horse, but then again.. you have to few points.

Lucky you, to be able to go 5 points over the limit..
In my tournament it wasn't allowed

Are you sure you can't contact the hosts of the tournament to ask if you can't knock the model count up a bit? 50 models is a reasonable max model count for a 400 pts. army!

those rules are on this tournament for 4-5 years and those tournaments are cool!

Take Aragorn, then spam some warriors of Minas Tirith, more killing power, plus getting your bows to 33% and more models. Aragorn with Anuduril will eat up a few of your points but he's great to lead your cavalry and he alone can defeat an army

But that is normally when he gets killed, when he is over-estimated and thrown into a battle surrounded by 15 orcs. After all, there is only 50% chance that he will get a 6 with 3 dice even with his free point of might a turn. That's how I lost Gil-galad in a game.

i think just the same as spuds4ever no hero is invincible (except maybe sauron) it all depends on luck i think! and also i really like elladan and elrohir!

Same they're awesome for their points cost!

I'd prefer Boromir over Aragorn for this army.
