Warband 1 Dwalin OR Thorin w/ Oakenshield 11 Erebor Dwarves (5 w/ shield, 6 w/ spear) Warband 2 Erebor Captain w/ Shield 11 Erebor Dwarves (5 w/ shield, 6 w/ spear) Warband 3 Erebor Captain w/ Shield 11 Erebor Dwarves (5 w/ shield, 6 w/ spear) Warband 4 Dwarf Captain w/ shield 10 Iron Guard Total 737 OR 747 w/ thorin Models: 48 Might: 8 / 9 So above is probably my first themed list ever xD and probably my favourite. All my erebor dwarves are converted out of grimhammers, one captain is converted from a grimhammer captain and I plan to convert one more out of either young dwalin, balin or a grimhammer. So yeah, C&C on the above list. Main points are, thorin or dwalin? and if I take dwalin, give shields to the spears? Might slow down those pesky crossbows and ferals which always seem to turn up. |

Can a shieldbearer protect a dwarf from erebor? If so I'd say take that bad boy and Thorin. If not take Thorin anyway, although I would personally take both because they are hench. |

If you're sure to face Uruks Thorin is nice, I'm partial to Dwalin cuz of his strength and the +1 for a 2h hammer without the drawbacks. I'd also say the shields are a must as you have no bows to use against the cross-bows. Also idk if its a typo but in warband 3 you have two Dwarves with no extra equipment, and you have the points still to outfit them regardless of which lead hero you take. My advice would be to drop 4 Iron Guard (at least) and take Dwalin over Thorin so you could attatch 6 Dwarf Rangers with bows to counter enemy archer fire. Also the extra points could allow you to squeeze another Erebor Dwarf into one of your other warbands (with Equipment). |

Thing is, 48 dwarves is a pretty good number for 750pts, so I'd be inclined to make no big changes. That said, if you drop 1 captain to Balin, and one to the shieldbearer - you could get Orcrist for Thorin and whack another dwarf in/shields on some men. Shieldbearer would also be a good anti-Dr.Grant measure just because he'd always be there to atleast try and take the heat off Thorin with a heroic combat, so if some lame wizard (lol cos I never use magic...) tries to compel him, shieldman is there to save that day. This works even better if you give him the strength 5 carnival trait (assuming this list is for the longbottom carnival) |
