Heres what I have so far.

Groblog, King of the deeps.
Wild Warg Chieftain
48 Moria Goblins
12 Wild Wargs
6 Prowlers
Cave Troll

Could someone assist me by telling me what to add and helping me make an army list

You need some more heroes as you can only make two warbands with two heroes

Which Heroes do you suggest?

Durburz
Ashrak
Shaman
Lots of captains

Welcome

The key top Moria armies is goblins, and lots of them

A Balrog is a great monster addition to your army if you play larger point games. Durburz, Ashrak, Moria Goblin Commanders and some giant spiders ares some good beginning sets to buy.

Thanks guys for your answers, Would the spider queen be worth getting?

Yes, she is a beast (no pun intended) the perfect cc killer, and even better when enraged by druzhag.

Spider queen is great, but note that she's an independent hero, so can't lead troops (you'd think being a "queen" she could at least lead spiders...)

That's a little sad. How many Wargs can a cheiftain lead?

Watcher in the Water is good also

What makes the watcher good?

ElfLover · **Posted:** Tue Feb 19, 2013 9:05 am

It's Pounce ability which allows it to appear out of nowhere

That's pretty good, am I allowed to ask for its point cost or is that a No No

ElfLover · **Posted:** Tue Feb 19, 2013 9:11 am

Hya, considering what you've already got (about 550 points) I think the most sensible thing would be for you to pick up the Finecast Moria goblin commanders box. It's only £24 which is relatively cheap (if you count the drum it's £4 per figure, if you don't it's just under £5) and you'll get 3 new captains as well as the goblin drum. The commanders box set comes with 2 shamans, not just the 1 shown on the box and that will allow you to make the most of Groblog's special rule. That will give you 4 Goblin captains + Warg chieftain which will allow to to field all of your wargs and all but 7 of your goblins which, off the top of my head, should allow you to field about 750 points.

If you are then deciding what character to get next to lead your remaining warriors I'd go for Druzhag or Ashrak.

Then I'd probably get a Spider Queen and some giant spiders to get you over 1000 points with a bit of choice for each game.

After that I'd probably get one of the big beasties as a centrepiece, my vote would be for the Watcher in the Water, it's a great model and it's rules are rather juicy.

It's always been like that. And the watcher is in the £17 moria and angmar book.

Thanks for the advice on the goblin commanders, Knowing my luck it won't have the second shaman. Gw australia always screws us over. It's double the american cost +some. I think i shall order the commanders now..shame i cant use the sites most people use as gw has banned them from shipping to australia -.-'

Try and ebay a goblin shaman? To be honest he is all you really need right now, considering you can use your prowler models as captains if you want...

Is the goblin captain with bow still around?
