Hi everybody!
I try to play angmar, I've never seen anyone play it, with new rules will be competitive? however this is my list:

Warband1: Angmar Shaman
6 orc with shield
5 orc with spear

Warband2:Buhrdùr
6 orc with shield
4 orc with spear

Warband3:Borrow Wight
9 orc trackers

Warband4:Warg Riders Chieftain with shield
5warg riders with shield

What do you think?
Orc trackers isn't so good, i think to substitude it for another unit of orc and a captain.

N°39 might 6
Thanks

good list, bhudur is super good, and I love barrow wights.
trackers are good. few points, shooting is OK, and they can be used to shoot and to fight (witch they will probaply lose)

At higher points take a shade, really good

Thanks, a friend suggested to me to play another troll and other orc warriors instead of the warg riders unit but they're so useful in my experience and i don't really want to do this change..perhaps i'll try it but you see more benefits playing another troll or not?

I know they're expensive, but maybe take 2 or 3 spectres?

Personally I'd drop the warg riders in favour of either a troll/ more orcs/ spectres/ shade and increase the number of spearmen you have.

I think the first "evil" army I will build will be an Angmar force... any top tips regarding Spectres, Barrow-wights, shades etc?

shades are very good with many models like goblins.(shades are good with all models but are expensive, is less difficult drop 1-2 unit of goblin for a shade than drop 1unit of orc or morannon orc or uruk for it)

specters-barrow wights are very strategic pieces, move or paralize enemy heroes and hit them with your hitters.

Maybe fiddle things to get one of those spectres in with the shaman's warband, so all your warbands have terror causing models?

(Not that I know anything!)
