700 Pt Isengard Army

Alatar of Rhun · **Posted:** Sun Sep 09, 2012 7:48 pm

Needing a little help with a start for my final Isengard Army (hoping for 1500 pts)
I've included an Uruk-hai Drummer at the same price as the Mordor Uruk-hai drummer for now, (still hoping GW will take the finger out and give us a profile)

Warband 1
Uruk-hai Captain with Shield & Heavy Armour

6 Uruk-hai with Shields
6 Uruk-hai with Pikes

Warband 2
Uruk-hai Shaman with Armour

6 Uruk-hai with Shields
6 Uruk-hai with Pikes

Warband 3
Vrasku

12 Uruk-hai with Crossbow

Warband 4
Uruk-hai Drummer (I know there is no profile for this in the new source books)

12 Uruk-hai Warriors

700 Pts
52 Models all S4 D5 or better + 14 Shots per turn
6 Might

Any help or suggestions would be welcome

instead of the drummer's warband you could have Mauhur and a bunch of marauders
you'd get more attacks, fight ,wounds , courage, might, will and stength

To make Warband 4 legal, use the profile of a Black Guard Drummer, leading Mordor Uruk-hai (which have the same profiles as Uruk-hai Scouts)

I was thinking
Warband 4
Uruk-hai Captain with Heavy Armour and Two Handed Weapon

6 Beserkers

This would keep the pure Isengard theme I'm going for

Also, I'd take warbands of 3 shields, 8 pikes for your Shieldwall (4th shield is the captain).

TAKE A TROLL

Isengard trolls are not worth it imo. Especially against elves. You can feed a troll one unit a turn and basically ignore it. I would rather have 10 crossbows instead. Those things are deadly.

I'm Planning on adding a Troll to bring it up to 1000 Pts.
I like the Idea of 3 Shields 8 Pikes.

Looks like I'll have to redo my lists

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions. I've redone my list and think this new list can win me some battles,

Warband 1
Uruk-hai Captain with Shield & Heavy Armour

3 Uruk-hai with Shields
8 Uruk-hai with Pikes

Warband 2
Uruk-hai Shaman with Armour

4 Uruk-hai with Shields
7 Uruk-hai with Pikes

Warband 3
Vrasku

12 Uruk-hai with Crossbow

Warband 4
Uruk-hai Captain with Shield & Heavy Armour

3 Uruk-hai with Shields
8 Uruk-hai with Pikes

697 Pts
49 Models all S4 D5 or better + 14 Shots per turn
8 Might

And to bring it up to 1000 Pts

Warband 5 299 Pts 2 Might
Uruk-hai Captain with Two-handed Weapon & Heavy Armour

10 Uruk-hai with Shields
Isengard Troll

I have some Beserkers that I'll be painting up to bring it up to 1500 (one I've finished painting the 700 lol)
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions would be welcome
