Faction: Black Numenoreans, 1.0

The Black Numenoreans are those men who threw their lot in with Sauron many centuries ago. It is unknown whether those who march from Minas Morgul are those same Men, granted extended life by their Dark Lord, or their descendants. What is known is that these form warbands of skilled fighters that are rightly feared on the battlefields of Middle-earth.

Starting Company
6 Black Numenorean Warriors
2 Orc Trackers

Equipment
Armoured Horse (Hero only)...................3 Inf.
Warg (Trackers only)...............................2 Inf.

Promotions
Black Numenorean → Morgul Knight

Reinforcements (D6)
1-2 -- No Reinforcements
3-4 -- Black Numenorean Warrior
5 -- Morgul Knight
6 -- Roll again on the table below

Reinforcements (Cont’d)
1-4 -- Orc Tracker
5-6 -- Morgul Stalker

Special Rules
Rule Through Fear -- This Hero leads through fear and the promise of death to those who fail him. All Evil Warriors within 3” of the Hero count as though they are withing range of a banner.

Ensorcelled Weaponry -- The Hero has gained access to ancient weapons from the Witch-king’s armories, charged with dark sorcery. When determining what number the Hero needs to wound his opponent, use the opponent’s Courage rather than Defense on the Wound Chart.

**A note about Black Numenorean Battle Companies**
Though they are not above using them to enact their dark purposes, the Black Numenoreans despise the Orcish soldiers of Saurons hordes. It is unconscionable that they would ever take orders from an Orc, therefore Orc Trackers and Morgul Stalkers may never be promoted to Heroes within a Black Numenorean Company.
