The Dwarfs

The Dwarfs were mostly priced as Warriors. 2 units were given The Standard of Shielding to make them into Ironbreakers/ Longbeards. As there are no gunpowder weapons in Middle Earth, the Dwarfs used Stone Throwers and Bolt Throwers. The Stone Thrower used the same profile as the Orc Rock Lobber. The Bolt Thrower was a special variant designed for monster hunting. Its profile was 60cm range, no armour save allowed and the bolt can either penetrates 5 cm (Standard) or causes d3 hits (Broad Blade). The type of bolt being fired is chosen before shooting. Otherwise it is based on the Dwarf Cannon profile, except for the unit size of 1.

7 units of Warriors @ 110 = 770

2 Banners of Shielding @ 50 = 100

2 units of Rangers @ 110 = 220

2 Stone Throwers @ 75 = 150

2 Bolt Throwers @ 50 = 100

2 Heros @ 80 = 160

1 General @ 155

Total Dwarfs 1655

The Men of Erebor

The Men were mostly Brettonians but as I don't have Warmaster 4, I choose to use the Empire List. The bowmen were Crossbowmen and the spears/halberd were Halberds, with a unit of skirmishers for luck. I gave them 3 units of knights to give them some cavalry, the well to do of the merchants of Laketown and Dale.

2 units of Crossbowmen @ 55 = 110

1 unit of Halberdiers @ 55
1 stand of Skirmishers @ 25

3 units of Knights @ 110 = 330

1 Hero @ 80

1 General @ 125

Total Men 715

The Elves

All the elves, whether Wood or High Elves originally used the High Elf list. Wardancers, White Lions, Phoenix Guard and Elf Warrior Kinband were all treated as Spears. The Cavalry was costed as either Silver Helms or Reaver depending on whether they were light or heavy in appearance.

10 units of Elven Spears @ 60 = 600

9 units of Elven Archers @ 75 = 675

3 units of Silver Helms @ 100 = 330

5 units of Reiver Knights @ 100 = 500

2 units of Bolt Throwers @ 65 = 130

3 Heroes @ 80 = 240

1 General @155

Total Elves = 2630

The Northern Arm of Mordor

The evil horde was mostly stock, but I freely added a free new troop types to represent the available units. Orc Boar chariots was given an extra hit and an extra point of armor, a guesstimate for the point cost at 110. 3 (or 4) wolf chariots were given an extra attack. The wargs used the Chaos Hounds profile. The Nazgul used the Chaos General profile and was mounted on a wyvern.

6 Giants @ 150 = 900

1 unit of Trolls @ 110

3 unit of Ogres @ 105 = 315

6 Rock Lobbers @ 75 = 450

3 units of Wolf Chariots @ 80 = 240

2 units of Boar Chariots @ 110 = 220

2 units of 3 wolf Chariots @ 90 = 180

4 units of Black Orcs @ 100 = 440

14 units of Orc Warriors @ 60 = 840

27 units of Goblins @ 30 = 810

5 units of Wolf Riders @ 60 = 300

5 units of Boar Riders @ 110 = 550

3 units of Wargs @ 40 = 120

12 Goblin Heroes @ 45 = 540

12 Orc Heroes @ 80 = 960

2 Orc Generals @ 95 = 190

1 Nazgul @ 125

1 Wyvern @ 80

Total Orcs 7310
