Take list 3, drop Gimli and the banner bearer for the Kings Champion. He comes with 2 banners and is better than Gimli.
Or
Take list 2 and dump Gimli for Dwalin and give him Thorin's Warband from your third list.
My advice would be list 3, only because I've never seen (aside from 3 ppl I taught) anyone properly use vault wardens
I'll be honest: I've never actually played with Vault Wardens. I only have two, and for "collector's reasons". I think a key to their correct use is in the name itself. Those are not units to send in the open battlefield: when flanked, they go down easily. I thought of having them in a diagonal line, 1/2 cm of distance to cover as much ground as possible and shield the spearmen, with a banner behind and one side covered by some big element (we use lots of houses) and the other covered by a powerful hero. That's pretty much why, in list 2, they stand with the king's champion.
But still, that's only theory. Sounds dumb even to myself.
Funny thing is, I'd like list 3 the most too. Raddy saved lots of units in the past with his panic steed, dropping 3 knight on their heinies with a channeled spell and a fourth a turn later. Plus, the spell works also on Fell Beasts and Charriots, and I think there's nothing funnier than taking out a well-payed nazgul's steed with a spell so easy to cast.
