The film had a lot more Infantry than that. About 5,000 in the film, maybe a few more in the book.

Dont forget Pippin(Not merry) and beregond. Yea Im pretty sure thats everyone..funny how nearly all of the heros of men had died or been injured by that point in the book...including halbarad

Merry & Pippin did participate in he movie version, but did not in the book.

Pippin was there, but not Merry. He was still recovering from the Black Breath.

Dragluin is right, Pippin was there. If I'm not mistaken, Elladan and Elrohir were there too.

Thanks for the help, still trying to decide what to do since im really struggling to come up with a Good force i like, so decided a hero force might be fun but maybe something a little different then just the fellowship.

Id welcome any other Good hero themed force ideas as im trying to collect a full force for both Evil & Good, Evil is easy as i like nearly every model.

Nat

Have you considered a White Council army? That would have a lot of Heroes, such as Elrond, Glorfindel, Gandalf, Saruman (good version), Radagast, Galadriel, Cirdan, Thranduril, and Celeborn.

Yes i had a quick look at that option but im a bit unsure due to not being that big in to magic and im guessing that army would have plenty between the 3 Wizards & Galadriel, but thanks for the suggestion.


Nat

Not only was Pippin there, he killed a troll chieftain!

Ok.

If you want something a bit more "fighty", then perhaps something based on the Three Hunters? You could add in the Elf Twins.

He wanted to kill the Mouth of Sauron, so as to equal Merry though.

@JustNatV1 If you want a collection of evil heores, what about the Scouts that attacked the Fellowship. You have Lurtz, Ugluk, Grishnakh and Mauhir with Orcs, Uruks and Goblins, and their respective generic captains. You could also use GW-made Vrasku too. And you could expand to include the Winged Nazgul that Grishnakh reported to etc.

Thanks for the more suggestions, i like the idea of the three hunters and im ok with the evil side as i like nearly all the models so have started a mordor army.


Thanks again

Nat

Mauhur wasn't at Amon Hen, but he was at Fangorn Forest.

It doesn't actually say he wasn't at Amon Hen, so it would not be unreasonable to assume that he was there, and Ugluk sent him ahead to rejoin him later. And besides if you're being so purist you'd have to drop Lurtz.

True about Lurtz.
