Boromir of Gondor, Horse Aragorn - Strider, Horse Eomer, Knight of the Pelennor, Armoured Horse Elladan and Elrohir, Heavy Armour, Horses What do you think of this list? I know it's quite vulnerable to magic and bow fire, but I can get into combat to avoid bow fire and stay away from or charge wizards, hopefully. Anyway, what do you think? Thanks, LordElrond |

Looks powerful enough to me. At 600pts your opponent will only have 1-2 casters to nullify your heroes, so you ain't got all that much to worry about. Keep in mind Elladan and Elrohir cannot use two swords on horseback, they are technically 2 attack models when on horseback. |

Would it be better to get Gil-Galad or Glorfindel instead? |

Nah, taking Gilly or Glorf will give you 3 less might, having a 2 attack model on a horse is still 6 attacks to wound with if you charge. |

rather gil-galad is +1 to kill and doesn't become crazy when someone dys. Ever killed one of them with a archer and he run to a corner of the table where my archer runned to. the other time it was my troll chieftain  .but 2 A heroes are still really good. Bolg |

I might convert a Gil-Galad anyway at some point, but for now, I'll use the twins. Any thoughts on Glorfindel? |

Most armies will field S4 these days so that D7 -> D8 isn't that much of an improvement. But 3 fate + resistant to magic does the trick for me. Unless you have no good way to spend those 10 extra points on...

I still think the twins are a better choice than Gilly or Glorf :p |

You couldn't go with Gil-galad, and maintain your all mounted theme, as he cannot take a horse. Side-note, Heroes like Gil-galad are part of why I hate the new heroic strike ability. Takes away much of his natural usefulness with a Fight of 9 |
