Post subject:  500 Points Gondor army

I was just wondering if this list would work. I hope so anyway

It's based on the White Company, Faramir's personal guard after the war of the ring.

The Tower of Ecthelion

Faramir w/bow
Beregond

Knights of Emyn Arnen
6 Knights of Minas Tirith w/shield

The Guard of the Prince
3 Guards of the Fountain Court

214 points, 0% bows

Allied: The Ithilien Rangers

Amaldir, Captain of Gondor w/shield

Amaldir's Force
17 Warriors of Minas Tirith, 8 w/spear and shield, 8 w/shield, 1 w/banner

Rangers of Henneth Annun
8 Rangers of Gondor

287 points, 32% bows

-------------------------

Total points: 501
Might: 6
Overall bow count: 23,53%
Number of models: 37


Do you think it will work? :)

Its not too bad but i think you really need faramir or the captain mounted with a lance.

Too many heroes. Also, the banner is not necessary as you have spears. I would drop Beregond and the banner, give faramir horse and lance and swap the bow for h/ armour and then fill out with GotFC or if you don't have any more, fill out on the WoMT

From a thematic point of view, perhaps you could include Eowyn?

Heh, that's one of my favourite themes: Faramir Prince of Ithilien profile, some WoMT and GotFC, with Eowyn and some RRG and Riders.

Thanks for the help all!

I think I'll get the mounted Faramir and drop the banner. I won't drop Beregond, because he basically was the first captain of the White Company.

Maybe I could expand the list to a higher points value with Eowyn and Rohan allies. That would be nice.

I thought about it. Would the list in my first post be improved when I would drop the captain, get 5 WoMT with bow and give Faramir horse and heavy armour?

You need someone to ally in the rangers. Faramir is in both lists, but he can only lead one at a time, and depending on which one he's leading he's limited to certain wargear options.

You could replace the captain with Damrod (another light-hero like Beregond), use the points to beef up Faramir, and take more models with what's left over.

I forgot Faramir can only take a bow in the Rangers list. Thanks for the reply.
