Hello all! As always, getting ahead of myself but have all the models to give this army list a crack and would appreciate your feedback!

W1 - Aragorn, mounted warg attack (Don't have profile as it's in free peoples, not KoM but on the assumption that he's similiar points cost plus standard horse cost?!)

W2 - Mounted Ranger of the North
W3 - Mounted Ranger of the North
W4 - Mounted Ranger of the North
W5 - Mounted Ranger of the North
W6 - Mounted Ranger of the North
W7 - Mounted Ranger of the North

W8 - Halbarad
12 Rangers of Arnor (12 spears)

W9 - Arathorn
12 Rangers of Arnor (12 spears)

Although RotN are independent heroes and the Aragorn profile is "allied in" I think together, the *7 mounted models make the grey company force quite a bit more dynamic (I could see how, even from my first game, that scenario dependent, often it's going to be best to shoot and retreat until you have the advantage to counter with your models, supported by spears)

Because all the RotN have might, as well as Aragorn having a free might point each turn (if profile is similiar to Isildur's heir), using heroic moves (?) to ensure the cavalry get the charge when priority is lost should be that much more easier. Gives the force a bit more punch in combat, instead of sticking to shooty tactics too much!

What are the thoughts of the forum?

There isn't a special "Warg Attack Aragorn" profile. He is just Aragorn riding a horse. You can field him in Arnor and not need to ally him.

That army would ceratinly look nice, and the horses give some additional protection to some of your archers so not too shabby. Nice enough 8)

Yes he does. He needs to ally in Aragorn form the Fellowship, because Aragorn, Isildur's Heir cannot take a horse

Really? Couldn't see horse in the wargear options so asked in the rules part of this forum and someone answered that you have to ally him in from the fellowship?

Thanks! I think it'll be pretty cool. See you next week!
