Very nicely done. It all makes logical sense. The only thing I'm not keen on is 'Terrifying Fleetmaster'. For me I don't feel a Corsair embodies what is needed (size, evil essence, etc.) to cause Terror. Just my thought though.

Battle companies are really not my thing - I prefer somewhat larger possibilities, with more adherence to the spirit of the Tolkien books and yet a greater range of combat scenarios.

But well done for getting a neat and timely article published!

Thanks guys.

The thing that made me choose Terrifying fleetmaster was more the fact that that particular Fleetmaster was supposed to be a more frightening sight to see due to his wildness and barbarianism (?). It was just my opinion on things and obviously not everbody is going to agree with me

Thanks

As the standard of articles we try to accept is so high here at One Ring, not many gaming articles make it through, however we let this one slip the net

For me, I guess I would have liked to see it all playtested and the results included in the article.

Well laid out though !

Yeah... I'm sorry for forgetting to add the playtesting notes into the article. I can post up some notes on my playtesting here if you really want me to? And again, I'm sorry for not including them into the article itself.

And can I also add my thanks to Brian for proofing the article

it's a good article, but what's a Reaver? i can find their charcteristics but not their equipment, if anyone can tell me please do.

A Reavers' only wargear is a pair of swords (hand weapons).

gee, they don't even have throwing weapons? That kinda ruins the ranged style of the army in my opinion, but it's still a good article !

With F5 and 2 attacks they're kinda like Corsair berserkers. Throwing things at the enemy to soften them up may not occur to them. Even if they did have daggers all I could see them doing is just putting one between their teeth before charging in. Just for effect.
