I would replace the Morannon orcs with either Blackshields or prowlers, replace the Morannon Orc Captain with Durburz, replace the Morannon orc Shaman with a goblin one, get a few more goblins, call it a screaming horde, and throw it at the enemy.

However, if you are particularly interested in keeping the Morannon Orcs, then consolidate all of them into Mordor-specific warbands (unless you can get them from Moria- forgive my ignorance, but I don't have the book), pick up another goblin hero, consolidate the goblins into Moria specific warbands, and then use more Morannon orcs with shields and more goblins with spears.

If you don't follow valamir's suggestions, note that even though all evil can ally, a hero cannot lead a warband from another list. So unless morannons ARE in the moria list, you cannot have a morannon orc shaman with moria goblins.

I would swap the Goblins with bows for orc trackers, they cost the same, are in the Mordor list and shoot better. Of course unless you plan to fight a lot with your archers, you will be better off with armour.
I don't have the Mordor book OR the Moria & Angmar, so I don't know the cost of Morannon Captains/Shamans, and I don't know if the orc/goblin captain/shaman cost has changed.
SO:
The Morannon Banner must be moved to Warband 1.
To solve the problem with warband 2, you could do one of following:
1) Swap goblins w/ bows for Orc Trackers
2) Assuming the Morannon Shaman costs the same as an Orc Shaman in the One Rulebook, swap the Morannon Shaman to a Goblin Shaman and take another goblin with bow.
3) Swap goblins with bows for Mordor Orcs with bows, and then either drop Groblog for a 10 pts cheaper hero OR remove two goblins from the third warband.

I'd probably go for the second option, but then again, I've never played Moria :oops:

Hope it helps :)
