Batting around an idea on a larger army, facing a variety of opponents from both good and evil armies. Can use the input from y'all. (I've stuck w/500pts)

Gimli
Cpt w/Shld
Banner
Ballista
D.Rangers x9 (bows/2hd) ((this will be a 1st for me))
K.G. x6
I.G. x5
DW w/Shld x15
((dropping the Balli, K.G., and I.G. will free up enough points for another 22 DW w/Shlds, bringing the DW to 37 and up the final count to 71/75...I like the variety though))
RoN w/Spears x2
RoA w/Spears x8

49 Models (below the max of 75)
7 Might
19 Bows
10 spear support ((don't have WoMT))
with 7pts left over ((dont' have any more Rangers, and can't squeeze 1pt for another DW w/2hd))

Thanks for the guidance.

I like your army. :)

The only I'd change would be to drop the Ballista; all artillery is pretty useless in SBG.

Ballista is not very good at these points' levels (there are very few where it is effective in fact). Other than that, it's your pretty standard Dwarves+rangers army. Why not take Halbarad or Arathorn instead of the captain? I don't know what the purpose of the I.G is here. I would drop them for some more K.G and with the ballistas left over points, I'd get some more rangers with a RotN then you'll have a nice large shieldwall of dwarves backed up by rangers, this also means that you won't need your banner so you could potentially swap the captain, banner, and some left over points for Saruman. Other wise, just more K.G or maybe even swap Gimli for Dain.

Sorry for the wall of text, hth :)

Well I scrapped that list and went with an all Dwarven Army.

Balin w/Durins' Axe
Gimli
Banner
K.G. x8
I.G. x6
DW w/Bow x17
DW w/Shld x13
DW w/2hd x9

54 models, 743pts.

I take what I have. I have only 8 K.G. and 6 I.G. ((with the price hike and finecast I DON"T see myself buying from GW anytime soon)) All-in-all its, to me, a solid army. I should have reduced the archers to 10, dropped the banner and added more shields. I like the I.G. models ...and it nice to see them in action.
