Note:
- When playing scenarios with new rules, they might need to be balanced again.

-Some of the latter in the list will need to be downloaded. I have downloaded some to test and they work, no virus found either

- There might be some doubles or broken links. I have tried all links and they work (for me anyway). If you find any broken links, spelling errors, or found new links, please post them in a comment below

Article list is brought to you by I am Frodo, SidtheSloth, SouthernDunedain, Azog, ElfLover and Fëanor, the mighty elf.

Thanks :frodo:

Great idea but I've moved it from the Painting forum to the Miniatures forum as I think they might be more use in here.

I've also stickied the topic so it can be added to.

I'd like to think you might add more directly to your original post to create a useful list.

We should advance it by time!

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Sat Apr 13, 2013 10:23 am

LordElrond · **Posted:** Sat Apr 13, 2013 9:01 pm

If these were made pre-warbands, should we:
A) Use Warbands with the points that are there
B) Use Warbands and add a certain pts value to each selection
C) Use LoME (not Warbands)

Not actually by GW but a book-true helm's deep:

And:
Does anybody have a link to the FAQs of the Old Sourcebooks (Ruinof Arnor etc.)?

Thanks,
LordElrond

I Am Frodo · **Posted:** Sat Apr 13, 2013 10:00 pm

errr.................................................Yeah i guess it could go there if i state it was not truly a GW one

EDIT: That is more of a battle report, not an article. I'll chat with a mod
about it

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Sat Apr 13, 2013 10:18 pm

I have around 30 odd of GW's old PDF articles on my computer... now to find a way to share them...

Couldnt think of any other ones but I found all these by googling them.

I Am Frodo · **Posted:** Sun Apr 14, 2013 8:30 am

Hey Sid, the Chariot conversion link you gave me is to convert Rohirrim. I'm going to delete it.

I Am Frodo · **Posted:** Mon Apr 15, 2013 9:49 am

Ok, I think that is it. Does anyone want me to start a page for non-G articles? I'll have to talk to a mod about deleting all other posts and locking it so it is just a list, but ill do that in a week or two as we are waiting for a certain sloth to post the ones he has saved on his computer. You have been named and thanked on the list. If there is anymore, *cough cough sid!* just pm me or post 'em... and Sid the 2nd link you gave me didnt work for me, do you want to test it? Thanks for all your contributions and I'm hopeful it will help some others.

Maybe it would be better to leave this thread open just in case anyone finds any more articles. Then when they are added to your list, the other members' posts containing links can be deleted?

Sorry, bogged down in work... will get my articles available ASAP

I Am Frodo · **Posted:** Mon Apr 15, 2013 11:42 am

No hurry Sid, just within the week would be greatly appreciated.

Gene Parmesan · **Posted:** Mon Apr 15, 2013 1:42 pm

Anyone able to dig up the article on plastic wood elves? It was a showcase of them painted for different themes - seasons/night time, things like that I think. Thanks.

PS Great work on getting all these together.
