it was quite useful getting madril out asap since i rolled a 1 for faramir on the reinforcement chart so i got him on the board. thing is he ended up on the other side of the battle field XD. the field did have lots of forests so that upgrade would of helped my archers still. but damn the crossbow men got a wound to faramir at turn 2 and i failed a fate check on him aghh and i send cirion at the troll when i could to delay him and hopefully won with a heroic strike didn't win that fight and i got rended to death XD. sigh i would of lost if his wounds didn't fail a lot though i consider my self lucky that i won. the veterans were not usefull at all in that fight and ended up more then a waste Y_Y. i can see flaws but that can be just who i was vsing.
