I guess the twins are going to go off with the rotn, so try your best to deploy their warband very close to other warbands and foot heroes to stop them from getting isolated, surrounded or fleeing.

Looks good, but I personally would drop some warriors and take more rangers

Be sure to keep your heroes close to your warriors near the end game, as WoA have the same courage as a goblin, so stand fast is vital with them

Exactly right about twins going off with mounted RotN. Spare WoA warband would probably move to merge and shield some rangers.

Can't take another warband of Rangers as to have 100% bows, you need a RotN for every 4 Rangers of Arnor in your force. So if I took another 12 Rangers, they wouldn't be capable of firing their bows :( And no spare points for 3 more RotN.

remember in this list, you are effectively getting 12 RoA for free as you have 24 WoA. 1/3 bows. the rest are taken as per the usual grey company rule. So if you had the points and warband space, you could take more rangers.

Good point, although nipping and tucking for the 160 odd pts or so for an extra captain and 12 rangers would be tough!

Although it means you don't need 3 of those mounted RotN now you have the extra warband of WoA, which frees up 90 odd points, that would completely alter the original purpose of the original list, with that extra warband of WoA only being there because of the bow limit and not being able to afford more RotN.

However, what I could do in that situation in in fact have the extra warband as 6 WoA + 6 RoA...? As then the total WoA count is 18 meaning I get 6 "free bows" correct?

So in reference to my previous post, I could do...

W1 - Elladan and Elrohir (mounted, heavy armour, elf bows)
6 Warriors of Arnor (spears, shields)
6 Rangers of Arnor (spears)

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 (spear)
12 Rangers of Arnor (spears)

W9 - Arathorn
12 Rangers of Arnor (spears)

W10 Malbeth
12 Warriors of Arnor (spears/shields)

Yes, that looks fine to me and should be much more effective. Remember to keep Malbeth close behind your WoA, as they will need to survive as long as they can to defend the rangers for maximum time and allow them to get in as many shots as possible
