Hi there, i have just started this hobby, ben playing 40k for years and wanted to try something new. Me and a friend got hold of the MoM and i ended up with the felowship. I now want to look into getting a larger army but cant decide between Gondor or Dwarfs, i like cavalry but dwarfs are still cool, anyone have any tips of forces or sorcebooks for additional rules??? |

Welcome to the battlegrounds of Middle-Earth! I suggest the Legions of Middle-Earth book is a good first buy. It has the army lists, to give you the look and feel of each army and help you select your forces. There's also a bunch of different scenarios to give you an excuse for the total annihilation of the enemy.

Welcome to the hoby! As far as I know, you can make a Dwarf army, and ally some Gondorian cavalry  But like Ares B said, get yourself the LoME book and if you are going Gondor get Gondor in flames book, if you take dwarves, you should get the Khazad-dum book. Or both Kiliaan |

Your choice depends a bit on your play style. Dwarves are tough and courageous, but they move slower and lack spears and cavalry. They're a forgiving army for new players since their higher defense and better than average fight can make up for mistakes. Gondor has a lot more variety, from solid reliable warriors to shooty rangers to elite knights, and they have more choices of elites and heroes. |

I'd also suggest that if you like both, ally them together, unless as whafrog says you prefer a particular style of play. |

I must admit the sluggishness of the dwarfs is the point i like the least and i do like cavalry so i think ile have a go at gondor, i may collect dwarfs later and ally them for some interesting battles. Thanks all |

It looks as though GW has removed the gondor in flame book from there website, and theres none on ebay? Has this book been replaced by something else or something??? |

Yeah GW has been cutting the sourcebooks, Khazad-Dum is longer available as well. I think they're trying to force people to move to War of the Ring. |
