I'm not sure. Sorry. The details are not confirmed yet as the tourney is a while away.

Really not sure what Aragorn without a warband or a horse will achieve. For that reason I would pick list 1, but I have a few pointers:

List 1:
A: You could save points by swapping Elrond for Gil-Galad (you'd be dropping Lindir too I assume).
B: I know it is a £25 model but mounting Elrond on a horse would make him so much better (same goes for Gil-Galad if you take him).

List 2:
Either take regular Aragorn on horse and save 15 points, or just get another warband.

List 1 I suppose, but your troop count isn't very high but your heroes aren't really the best either. I can think of a lot of threats which would overwhelm you quite easily, particularly at 800 pts.

Swapping for Gil-Galad is a good option provided you have something else to fill it with. The Elrond/Lindir Combo is great but you really need troops or a hero to get in there and make the most of the situation. Elrond on a horse would work well if you were going to buy him.

List 2 - I would dump the Arnor guys then Aragorn - they just aren't durable enough and would just be a weak point for your force. Yes, Aragorn is a beast but still low Defence, so again either put him on a horse or maybe drop him. If you have them I'd just add more dwarves. The Elrond/Lindir combo would go well with the dwarves as they can shield & be more likely to survive for a few turns while you double team the guys on the ground.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I can go with 4 warbands with the Dwarves or 3 w/ Gwaihir, but I thought that in some scenarios they were a bit disadvantaged because of their slow movement. E.g getting to objectives etc.
How about this:
W1:
King's Champion
2 Heralds
4 Iron Guard
1 Vault Warden Team
4 Dwarf Rangers w/ Longbow

W2:
Balin w/ Durin's Axe
8 Khazad Guard
4 Dwarf Rangers w/ Longbow

W3:
Gimli
7 Khazad Guard
1 Dwarf Warrior w/ Shield
4 Dwarf Warriors w/ Bow

W4:
Gwaihir 125

Or

W1:
King's Champion
2 Heralds
6 Khazad Guard
4 Dwarf Rangers

W2:
Balin
8 Khazad Guard
4 Dwarf Rangers w/ Longbow

W3:
Gimli
8 Dwarf Warriors w/ Shield
4 Dwarf Warriors w/ Bow

W4:
Dwarf Captain
8 Dwarf Warriors w/ Shield
4 Dwarf Warriors w/ Bow

Or

W1:
Gil-galad w/ Shield
1 Kings Guard w/ Spear, Shield
7 High Elves w/ Spear, Shield
4 High Elves w/ Spear, Bow

W2:
Isildur w/ Shield
3 Warriors of Numenor w/ Shield
4 Warriors of Nunemor w/ Spear, Shield
4 Warriors of Numenor w/ Bow

W3:
Captain of Numenor w/ Heavy Armour, Shield
4 Warriors of Numenor w/ Shield
4 Warriors of Nuemnor w/ Spear, Shield
4 Warriors of Numenor w/ Bow

W4:
Captain of Numenor w/ Heavy Armour, Shield
3 Warriors of Numenor w/ Shield
5 Warriors of Nuemnor w/ Spear, Shield
4 Warriors of Numenor w/ Bow

I like your revised list 1 but there's no point in taking one vault warden team. It's too easy to split them up. I seldom take less than all 4 of my teams if I take them lol
