I hope somewhere in the future GW will add in a Thranduil's Halls LL, fingers crossed. Also Ugluk's scouts look absolutely awesome. The models look great too.

When the UrukHai force was broken, the Uruk models would still have had to take courage as they do not get their isenguard rule of only taking courage after 66% so they would have still had to take courage tests at 50%

Glad you did this video. Was really struggling to put together a 500pt Ugluk list without 4 heroes. This has a nice balance. Grishnak with shield instead of Shagna though. Few less bows on my list though and a few mordor with spear and shield gives a bit of extra defense for those soft Mordor chaps.

Loving the videos guys will be following them all! Definitely keen to see how the legion with Eomer and Gandalf performs. Now have legit reasons to own every Rohan hero I think. Probablt would have happened anyway, lots of horses to paint after Christmas! Love how the Ugluk force works definitely tempted to build towards that as a first evil force. And I also feel the loss of +1 S on the charge will hurt but didn’t stop Rohan this game!

Great video!! Theodreds guard is awesome!! Really liked the similarities with the Battle of fords of Isen. Orc and Uruks sounds like a good combo and movement 8 is quite nice. Shooting into combat and wounding Ugluk sucks 🤣 & poor Snaga who now has a model (being late sucks). Cheers Lachie!!

@@Zorpazorp Fielding a swarm of infantry is such a great way of throwing off the opponent. Do they go after the middle units of infantry, or the flanks of cavalry? I like to use them in lines, to move forward then when they hit the blob of enemies (often 4x2 spear or 4x3 pike formations) the infantry can surround the blob peeling off support units and/or attacking the middle ranks; hoping to possibly getting trapped units. At 7 or 9points per model, I can field a few more guys. I'm one of those unorthodox players. Rohan is my favourite army.

If you feel better I once killed my own Saruman with a crosbow. Funilly enough that won me the game because I denied an heroic combat of Eomer an Theodred that would have catapulted them into my uruk with the relic 🤣. Edit: I also killed like 4 to 5 of my uruks and only like 2 riders of rohan from shooting in combat
