Looks like a very fun list. It would be hard to win a lot, but you'd have a great time |

I disagree on removing Radagast. On his sleigh he's an offensive juggernaut. And Renew is always worth it. I had Drar single handedly bring down the Balrog because I didn't waste his fate and Radagast kept healing him lol. Plus he can heal his mount. If you really want to make the list effective keep him, drop Gandalf and add in Legolas mounted, and Boromir of Gondor mounted as Radagast makes his lack of fate immaterial. So your force could look like this Radagast the Brown w sleigh and Sebastian Monkey Twins with horses, HA& Elf bows Legolas mounted with armor and elf cloak Boromir of Gondor mounted Exactly 600 points. Unless I calculated wrong you couldn't give the twins either upgrade you were considering (armor or bows) in your original list |

well to counter the wizards being weak i would have each twin go with each wizard and if i come up against ed BOOM! panic steed and if the witch king is there send everyone but gandalf in and if he cracks radagasts staff strengthen will. oh and james r is five points really going to make a difference i mean you can have a few points leeway  nahoh and i forgot to mention im not particularly fond of wood elves

In a tournament, when the five points difference is the cost of the upgrade, yes it is going to make a difference. JamesR, wouldn't your list with Legolas go over the bow limit? Actually, wouldn't equipping both twins (half your army) go over the bow limit? |

Actually it's not. Heroes don't count towards bow limit |

Yup bow limit is warriors only. and just to be clear, your final ToS list must be 600pts or under. There is no leeway in a tournament. The event team will make you change it
