Games Workshop - Middle Earth - Lord Of The Rings: Mordor Troll/Isengard Troll

Product Information

Bigger and stronger than their subterranean kin, these Trolls are amongst the most lethal troops in the armies of the Dark Lord. While I don't think this is as good as Bashing, it's still valuable (especially if your foe has a good Fight Value, like Gil-Galad or Treebeard). We will use anonymous information about the ad you saw and how you engaged with it to measure and improve our advertising campaigns in the future. This multipart, plastic box set allows you to build an Isengard Troll, Mordor Troll or Mordor Troll Drummer.

This is "potentially" a problem, but only if you want cheaper Dunland/Orc models in your list instead of running pure Uruk-Hai - then it's not a problem. Second (and still on the topic of Troll Chieftains), the cost of a Mordor Troll plus a cheap Hero of Fortitude in any Mordor list is likely to cost MORE than the cost of a Troll Chieftain. If you don't believe in two-handing or Bash or Stun, then maybe you're okay with a sword and shield.With base F7, most heroes are going to need to declare a Heroic Strike just to tie/beat the Troll's Fight Value (the F8+ club is pretty exclusive), so we know that the hero is going to be down at least 1 Might point. I had Elendil charge into a uruk hai crossbow and didn't realise that models can spear support base sizes smaller than them but not bigger. So let's take a second look at these guys and see what's to like about them and why they're so good to have in certain Mordor builds . Yes, these guys are the more-expensive, less-reliable cousins of Moria Goblin Captains - and the often overlooked blister-mates of the dreaded Moria Blackshield Shaman. Our first stop is a "Tiberius Special" for Mordor - a list that fields a ton of units that I love (some of which people think are garbage from a competitive standpoint).

Shagrat might drain resources too, but those resources we force out of our opponent also cost US resources - resources that we didn't have to spend with a Mordor Troll. which won't do anything for those Black Numenoreans, Trolls, Mordor Uruk-Hai, or Ringwraiths in your army. There are tons of cheap Heroic Defense heroes out there for both Good and Evil - and if your 100pt monster is tied up by a 50-70pt Defense hero for several turns, you do feel like you've wasted some investment there .While both Mordor and Barad-Dur (and most of the Legions from Mordor) have access to an Orc Drummer for 30pts, you COULD have +1 model by taking an Orc Drummer with . This finely detailed kit comes with four weapon options and a range of head and armour options that allow you to customise your Troll. Yes, not having Might can mean that these guys lose a fight here or there, but it's a rare situation that a Mordor Troll suffers much from a random warrior or two - they tend to stick around.

he Trolls of Mordor have been bred by Sauron so that they can withstand the light of the sun without turning to stone like other trolls. The Trolls of Mordor have been bred by Sauron so that they can withstand the light of the sun without turning to stone like other trolls. While fielding an army with lots of Trolls sounds like something you'd want to do at a high points level, I've actually found this list to be the most effective at low points levels, since it's very unlikely that you get heroes who can rival Mordor Trolls for very long there! Next time, we're turning our attention to another much-despised model: the Moria Blackshield Captain. Sending a S4 model at least 4" away from you should guarantee that the hero won't be able to charge you on the following round - and that means your opponent will have to find another way of dealing with you.Most opponents will look at this model and say, "Eh, I should deal with first, then I'll get to the Troll.
