I have had pretty big success running with my Angmar lists so far. But now I need help to decide between two lists for a special tournament. The tournament is set on the day of the ancient Walpurgisnacht festival (witches dancing around the fire) which is celebrated for centuries in many countries across europe and so the organizers have decided for some special rules for the tournament.

Special rules for making the lists:
point max is 666
the army has to contain at least one magic caster. Shamans do not count as casters.

I have two lists in my mind:


List 1

Buhrdùr (Leader)
Cave Troll
3 Spectres
4 Orc Trackers

Angmar Orc Shaman
6 Orc Warriors, Shields
6 Orc Warriors, Spears

Shade
6 Orc Warriors, Shields
6 Orc Warriors, Spears

Barrow-wight
3 Orc Warriors, Shields
3 Orc Warriors, Spears
2 Spectres

665



List 2 is very similar 3 orcs, 2 Spectres, 4 Trackes less for one additional Cave Trolls.

Buhrdùr
2 Cave Trolls

Angmar Orc Shaman
6 Orc Warriors, Shields
6 Orc Warriors, Spears

Shade
6 Orc Warriors, Shields
6 Orc Warriors, Spears

Barrow-wight
3 Orc Warriors, Shields
2 Spectres

662



At the moment I favor the first list but I'm open for comments and improvements.

I'd stay with the first list, maybe drop a couple of specters to add 6 more trackers.

I would agree with Dikey on this one but also you should be wary of the lack of any magical support.

I think that Spectres really shine when paired with a Ringwraith for the anti-courage bubble. Have you considered allying in a Mordor warband, replacing the Barrow Wight with a generic wraith? At a minimum it is only a 5 pt difference, and I think it would enhance the spirits/terror-causing models in the list nicely.
