Cirdan 12 High Elf Warriors with Shields and Elven Blades Elladan and Elrohir with Heavy Armour 2 High Elf Warriors with Shields and Elven Blades High Elf Warrior with Shield 8 High Elf Warriors with Elf Bows and Spears The plan is to have Cirdan cast one of his spells (depends which army I'm playing against because Blinding Light is to counter shooting armies, Aura of Command is to counter terror-heavy armies and Aura of Dismay is for everything else, and is quite an OP spell, IMO) and to have a battle line of elite warriors who can shield when out-numbered, for the twins to call the usual heroics and for the archers to take down monsters (and opposing archers if blinding light is not in use). Sorry for the extremely long-winded sentence. Anyway, C&C please. AdvThanksance, Lord Elrond |

Good looking list for 500pts. I guess you're always going to be outnumbered as HE, especially if you're taking the Twins at that level, but I think they can earn their points back if you keep them alive. It seems as if you plan on keeping your warbands right next to each other for the whole game, how will you deal with objective based scenarios and other games when your army might not deploy together? |

You may want a few more spears on your normal warriors. It wont change the points because you'll be dropping the elven blades. |

Agreed, there's no real point in having the blades if you have a shield, because you can't go 2H. I suppose you can feint with blades, but the odds of that rule coming into play are pretty low, whereas spears are always more useful tactically. |

If you drop all the blades and take 4 more spears, then you still have enough points to give the twins bows. Two more bows is nothing to sniff at and helps make the enemy come to you. |
