My first ever list for SBG.
Was trying to theme it a bit to Ithilien but still use WofMT.

Faramir - Heavy Armour, Shield
5 x Osgiliath Veterans - Shields
5 x WofMT - Shields, Spears
1 x WofMT - Banner
1 x WofMT - Shield, War Horn

Madril
4 x WofMT - Shields, Ithilien Guards
5 x WofMT - Shields, Spears, Ithilien Guard
1 x WofMT - Banner, Ithilien Guard
1 x WofMT - Shield, War Horn, Ithilien Guard
1 x Avenger Bolt Thrower - 3 Crew (2 + 1 additional), Swift Reload

Damrod
6 x Ranger of Gondor - Spear, Ranger of Ithilien
6 x Ranger of Gondor - Ranger of Ithilien

CaptainofMT - Lance, Shield, Horse
1 x KofMT - Banner
6 x KofMT - Shields
1 x Aveneger Bolt Thrower - 3 Crew (2+1 additional), Swift Reload

Peregrin, Guard of the Citadel - Pony, Elven Cloak

993 points

Was thinking -

Madril for reinforcement scenarios with bonus to deploy, take a bolt thrower to get some firepower and anchor force (3 crew to move full speed according to new Hobbit Rules) so can redeploy as reqd, troops are Ithilien upgraded to move through terrain easier - grab objectives

Faramir - with Banner and OVs main hit force - backed up with WofMT spears for points savings

Damrod - Volley fire and archery support unit, spears for fights if reqd

Captain and knights and Peregrin deploy and means can split KofMT if reqd 2-3 with Peregrin - he has some might - flanking forces
Other Bolt Thrower for more firepower - again move and deploy as reqd

Like I said first list - conscious of fact only 4 warbands - 2 siege engines, 9 cavalry, 35 infantry - (12 archers, 2 Banners, 2 War Horns) - 10 Might

Firstly, your banner bearers can still have shields, which is useful toi keep them alive longer.

Second, there is NO VOLLEY FIRE in the new rules, only normal shooting.

Thirdly, its WoMT not WofMT.

Fourthly, you only need 1 horn.

Fifthly, your list is looking okay actually, but I recommend that bolt throwers should be commanded by a hero on foot.

In addition to Gothmog's points, you have 7 points left, give all your rangers spears.

I wouldn't upgrade the WoMT to ithilien guard. It's not often you have to run through woodland. Also, with the new deployment rules, the bolt throwers maybe wasted as they can't shoot near combat.

I thing that's to fill points. (ithilian guards), but heroes haven't got this rule, so it's less efective and not worth 1 point a model
I should use the remaining 7 points for 1 more crew.
