Playing the game is where you can really bring the setting of Middle-earth to life. The Rules Manual and expansions give you the Core Rules of the game, as well as narrative battles to play out – imagine if the goblins did claim Smaug’s hoard, or the Witch-king had prevailed at Pelennor Fields! The Battlehost provides a very solid foundation. Saruman is a powerful wizard, you have Grima to attach to an enemy warband (ideally one on foot) and mess up their Might spending, and 20 Uruk Hai and 24 Uruk Hai scouts. The boxed set doesn’t naturally lead into a Legendary Legion, as there are no Legendary Legions with both armoured and scout Uruk Hai and none containing Saruman, but the army rules from the Armies of the Lord of the Rings book are fine in any case.So, quite a few reveals from Games Workshop this weekend. I think this is moving things in the right direction when it comes to Middle-earth, offering up lots of fun sets that are designed to get newcomers into the game and those returning after many years away. A few tasty morsels are also there for us Middle-earth veterans like Elrond and Glorfindel...tempting us to start entirely new armies. Corrupted by the Palantír, Saruman has pledged his allegiance to the Dark Lord Sauron. No longer a noble Wizard, nor head of the White Council, he is now intent on bringing ruin to the world of Men. Isengard itself undergoes a radical transformation; its once green lands have been replaced by dark forges and its woodlands ripped up and burned down.

Your local Warhammer store is the best place to get started, and the team of friendly staff will be happy to give you a free demonstration of the game, or even introduce you to other players who can take you under their wing and show you the ropes. Basically for evil armies Mordor Orcs are a staple component, and for a lot of them Warg Riders are an option as well. Commanding a host of daemons conjured from the empyrean is no small task, but Datacards: Chaos Daemons lets you focus on the bigger picture by providing 88 cards with Stratagems, Psychic Powers and Warp Storm effects. This battlehost is one of the most easy to use. It slots into multiple armies and can be used from the Last Alliance era to the end of the War of the Ring. Mordor have one of the biggest model ranges in Lord of the Rings, and it naturally pairs with the new starter set to give you more than 700 points, needing only some characters to give a legal army. With the 20th anniversary of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers™ just around the corner, and plenty of other Middle-earth buzz going on, there’s never been a better time to get into the game. There are lots of ways to do it too – whether you want to play the game casually or competitively, or simply collect and paint the models, this hobby has something for everyone! CollectFor a pure Isengard force from the LOTR Armies book, obvious additions are characters, monsters, missile troops and cavalry. As mentioned, there are some new plastic miniatures alongside the old ones. Faramir and his trusted companions are going to be leading the way with a neat trio of Faramir, Madril and Damrod seeing if they can hold off the Orcs at the river.
