What you were saying about the Rangers of Ithilien, I agree to an extent about it being boring with a shooting army. I get bored being on the receiving end of Tau shooting in 40K. The way I see though is that it is a cheap way to get into the game and be able to keep up with what someone with a larger collection might throw you off with. In the UK, it is £20 for Faramir, Madril and Damrod and £26 for 24 Rangers of Gondor. It's very affordable for most - especially if you were to compare it to 40K and AoS prices

Thank you Lachlan! Quest for the Ringbearer is easily my favourite sourcebook, Love the scenarios, the fellowship specific linked bonuses and recovery. Also the extra scenarios for the wacky fantasy fellowship was probably the big surprise! Regarding Legions, my favourite is the fellowship but definitely cirith ungol and the Nazgul are honourable mentions... i personally would run the rangers with faramirs warband all osgiliath vets and maybe 50% rangers at most in other warbands...More like a defence of osgiliath to take part in all facets of play with my opponent having fun! Keep up the great work!👌

Love the look of this book! the scenarios, hell yes love them! the fantasy fellowship, gimme I wanna play that right now! I have to agree with you on Lurtz' Legion, I was really hoping for something a bit more, The shield being an auto hit would have been real nice, especially given its a one off, compare that to the once per model ability of the Wraiths? possibly 9 chances to Channel transfix is much better than a str 4 throwing weapon with knockdown that could easily miss (3+ is good, but not compared to auto-cast) I really think it needed just a little extra something. Every other Legion I do love though! Thanks for breaking it down mate, very cool!

If i ws to grasp or tweek id love to see.Lurtzs shield should be an auto hit(like you said) or able to recover it if he hits when throwing it on the charge in so long as it hits. Also a built fury wound save like bersekers for lurtz( he did get reved up from pulling a dagger from his leg and licked it, dirty) Or in this legion he can extend his find the halfings rule to each warband. Selecting where and when the appear in maelstroms.

Man, I was hoping Lurtz's Scouts would have the 33% break point, and as much as I like the bonuses, I dunno if the Lurtz only buffs of Worthy Foe and Shield Yeet are enough to justify an all scout legion given how squishy they can be. He should have always been allowed a one off shield toss I reckon.

In regards to the rangers legendary legion do you think a "points tax" could make it more interesting? For example if you take it you have to take 25% less points in a competitive setting (in a 400 points game they have to take 300 points, 1000 points would be 750 etc etc). It could be made themey by saying they are a light skirmishing force so are generally a smaller more elite force, hopefully it would limit them just blasting the other force off the board and need a little more brain power to outmanoeuvre the other player.
@Zorpazorp
@Zorpazorp 3 жыл бұрын
A good suggestion but I think just make the list better to start with. Although you could create an effective points tax by either changing the costs of units from their normal list, which they've never done, and will never do, or forcing them to take less shoot units like Frodo, Sam and Gollum. But I honestly don't know how to fix them. They just need to not exist I'm afraid and have an Osgiliath themed legion instead.

@@Zorpazorp In your opinion, where would be a good place to start for narrative play? should i start somewhere in the middle since i have the pelennor fields box? or should i start from the beginning in the Hobbit series and work up from there? Obviously getting the armies as i need them for the scenarios.

It seems a shame that when the Gandalf replacement comes back that it is not +1 attack instead of attacks 1 to 2. As that makes more combat orientated characters like Celeborn and Elrond not get as much of a power increase.
