Hallo, and welcome to the forum :) . I like to set up battles too, especially on new terrain pieces.

For the forces of Good I would add Guards of the Galadrim Court, Glorifndel armored or mounted, and Wood Elf Sentinels.

And for evil some Mordor Trolls and more orcs; I'd also remove the Haradrim Raider; in my opinion he doesn't fit that great with the rest of the army.

Can you post some pictures when you've set the battle? I am sure it would be a nice spectacle.

Thanks, I was thinking along the same lines, maybe some of the new Mirkwood units as well

The first army sounds like a good army for a Dol Guldor scenario and your second sounds like it would a great piece for a Pelennor Fields army. I would recommend Lothlorien models for your good list and a Mumak for your evil.

Good is about to get annihilated lol. In game or not. Facing Sauron and the Balrog plus being outnumbered about 4 to 1

Good guys - add Gandalf, Mirkwood Elves, more Galadhrim and some elven cavalry (they just look so good)
Baddies - definitely add a Mumak. It's big bad and looks great.
And yes, a photo or two would be great :)

Have you uploaded them to a site like Photobucket or Imageshack? I think they need to be jpeg format and not too huge.
Some guidance here -
