I want to experiment with a mumak army with an southern hoard/easterling army vs dwarves.
Do you think 500 points is too small? Should we budge it up to 750?

This is what I have got for 500
-Mumak
-12 Haradrim Archers
-Easterling Captain
-6 Easterlings with Shields
-6 Easterlings with Spears and Shields

An idea for a 750
-Mumak
-12 Haradrim Archers
-Easterling Captain
-12 Easterling spears/shields (phalanx)
-12 Haradrim Spearmen
-12 Corsairs shields (for the higher fight value)
-Easterling Banner (he always has banners as well so I want to try and keep up with him)
-Corsair Captain

Now if we do budge it up to 750, what should I add?
Keep in mind that I don't have alot of southern hoard troops, but I have loads of orcs to ally with:
I don't have any mounted haradrim or serpant riders, I do have plenty of corsairs and easterlings and some more haradrim spearmen.
Remember it has to be anti dwarf!
Cheers

500pts is acyually a good army size for a Mumak, any bigger and the Mumak either gets shot at by more bows or the enemy has more Heroes and therefore more Might to call heroic moves to cancel out the Mumaks trample. Your force is illegal though as you have almost 50% bows and not 1/3.

Interesting, I've never thought about it that way before...

Thanks, it's proberly going to be a 750 point game though. How are corsairs against dwarves? They only upside is their FV, but their low defense and useless throwing knives won't do much good against dwarves.
