Thanks for this. Several thoughts were triggered while watching it. I am noticing several House of hador forces online using an orange focal colour and blue secondary so think i will go down a simlilar line. I too was really struggling to visulaise them without any references to colour schemes. Also, well done on figuring out a legal way of using the force. I felt i had ot create my own rules as my army is formed slightly differently. I felt the elites should have elven weapons and based the profiles on uruks/ dunlandings as i felt they were the strongest of the 1st age edian so should be represented in game with s4. A few people have tried to talk me out of this but its my vision of them. I will see how they play out in gam before making adjustmentse. I would appreciate similar vdieos if you have other 1st age armies you have developed. This video was very helpful. Thanks again.

@benbaird6968 no problem at all. My armies of arda playlist has a few historical armies. 2 from gondolin and my war of the elves and sauron numenorians. For S4 you could use Grimbol and his Helmingas?

Great terrain bud! the colours work so well. I don't envy you for the bevelling that MDF with a knife. You need to get those wanking numbers up so your hand doesn't cramp up again 🤣🤣 Good to see the big man in the video too!

If you get some really coarse sand paper for your sander you could probably bevel the MDF with just the sander and not have to use the knife at all. Thanks for the vids. The wife and I are actually visiting Scotland and going to be in the Inverness and general highlands area from August 12th to 20th. Any tips on things to not miss?

@kennygpokerstrategy4917 To be honest my hand sander is a pile of crap it's far too big it was giving me hand cramp too but if I need to do it again I'll try that cheers. Do you have Instagram?
