Yeah seems solid, not sure of what the warg riders are there for though, i assume they keep Saruman company should he go off on a magical adventure? All i'd say is make sure everyone, including beserkers, are receiving a full two lines of spear/pike support. |

warg are there to cut off the rohan charges and protect the rear side and flanks. i use the phalax like that : B S B S C S B O..O..O..O P..P..P..P and at the sides I put shields and berserkes. S are only for shield and the rest are killing grps So is it better to swap 4 bereskers and one warg for 4 shields and a banner? 4 less attack an a warg for a banner, is it worth?? |

The way your using tha phalanx means that only 6the shield or the beserker gets full support as a spearmen can only support one model per fight phase. If you max out on beserkers and make your front line this: B B B B O O O O P P P P Then your front line (or the bits with the beserkers) will have 4 attacks, you won;t need a banner. The same applies to a shieled-bearing front line, 3 attacks should be enough and with Saruman about you will already be giving them constant support. |

I just put a shield between the killing combos (B,O,P) in order to avoid traping if I loose a fight and in order to have more width. I was thinging tha the banner would help me also at the shielding |

what about sticking some X-bows in there too? I reckon they'd totally demolish enemy charges X = crossbow something like: BSBSB PXPXP ppppp |

cause if you loose a fight then the front line is trapped , and also if u want to move you loose the shooting. |

Good point. that would be rather problematic  this is probaly why i loose almost all my battles  oh well if nobody tried anything 'new' then there wouldn't be any 'old' |
