Hello erveryone!

I have now been an collector for about 1 1/2 year and i am now about to enter an tournament.
As i have NEVER EVER played an single game (due to the fact that i don`t know anyone around me who plays) i will probably lose real hard. But i don`t mind
However i still wanted to build an effective army and i really need some help!

So..
I will be playing..
conquest of champions
Ill met at daybreak (according to the program.. in my book ill met by moonlight)
Storm the camp
and Take and hold
From LOME

I need both an 700 points army for evil and for good..

Here is an list of what i have (due to me being an collector these models are not only one army themed.. i just buy what i find cool. Also some of them are OOP then i buy them aswell..)

GOOD
24 warriors of Minas tirith
1 Minas tirith Banner bearer
The fellowship of the ring
Peregrin guard of the citadel
Meriadoc Knight of the mark
Gandalf the white
2 High elf warriors with bows
2 High elf warriors with swords
Haldir
1 wood elf
Treebeard
3 Rider of Rohan
1 Converted rohan standard bearer on horse
24 Warriors of Rohan
Eowyn
Aragorn King Elessar (Foot and mounted)
3X Guard of the fountain Court
Avenger bolt thrower (with 3X crew)
Tom Bombadil
Goldberry

EVIL
4X Barrow Wight
24X Orc warriors
1X Mordor Uruk Hai
The dark Lord Sauron
Balrog
The witch King (mounted)
Mumakil (with 12 X harad warriors and 1X Harad commander)
Mumak Mahud
Gollum



I am clueless to what would be an good army...

I was thinking a bit about using Sauron With the one ring... but in an 700point game?
Also i was thinking about using Treebeard and the avenger bolt thrower.. but they cant ally it seems..


So please give me some hints to what i should do!

I dont have anything against buying one or two more Models/packages if it would greatly help improve my army..

Else i am open to any suggestions.. and i would be really happy to get some advice!

You don't really have muchto work with here.
For Good you will need the 24 Rohan and 24 Gondor models, you are then going to need Aragorn and Eowyn as the leaders, any points left after that?

For Evil, you are probably going ti have to use Sauron just to get to 700pts and then its as many orcs as you can get with the rest.

Is this for the UKGT next month?

Not really sure what you mean with UKGT but if you mean the Heroes of middle earth tournament in Nottingham.. yes thats were i am going Anyone else coming?

Thanks for your advise! I will probably do the Sauron-Orcs combination..

Not really sure about eowyn yet.. ill read through the rules on her once more..

You have to take Eowyn though as you have to have a Rohan leader for you Rohan troops, although you could take merry I suppose. You really need to read LoME to make sure you take a legal army. Yes, I still know it as the GT - silly name change If you want to chat to other players going to the GT, best take a look at The Last Alliance - reckon we have about 20 members going all discussing armies and stratagies. How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?

Pretty much what he said, you'll need a balanced army for those game types.
Though I dislike the Sauron + Orcs idea but maby it will work.

And dont worry the only way for me to play is game is with myself and Ive played plenty of games.
