Post subject:  Mounted Citadel Guard

Hello One Ring users,

I was looking through the Kingdoms of Men source book and noticed that Minas Tirith Citadel Guard have the options for Horse, Bow and Spear Wargear.

Obviously its possible for a model to have a bow on a horse as many units already have that combo, and its also possible to have a bow and a spear, like some Rangers of Gondor can have.

What I was wondering is can you have the Citadel Guard on a horse with bow and spear, and have it able to provide spear support. I can't find anywhere in the spear section of rulebook to say that cavalry can't provide spear support, does anyone know if this has been FAQ'd?

If it is possible, I want to do a warband of 6 KoMT with shields supported by 6 Citadel Guard Mounted with bow and spear. 3 Attacks on charge in total and Citadel Guard have fight 4 which gives a better chance against Uruk-Hai and Dwarves.

I am skeptical about whether this would be possible because it seems a really good option for Minas Tirith armies but I don't think i've seen anyone use Mounted Citadel Guard before.

Also the bow upgrade gives them S3 Longbows, another bonus.

Unless they FAQ otherwise, you may spear support other models with mounted Citadel guard.

You can also spear support a cavalry model with a foot model, so why shouldn't you be able to do this? I think all of that is silly, and my friends and I have house ruled that you can't do it.

Yes you can do it, but no it isn't as effective as it seems on paper ;)
