Apart from one small incident in the wilderness near Moria they don't appear in LOTR or at least aren't mentioned yet I doubt that there has ever been a range of Middle Earth figures without one,<br /><br />In the Hobbit it is only at the finsl battle that they appear with goblin riders but they are intelligent and talk. I would tend to trest them ss light cavalry, more the hit and run like wolves taking down a moose than like a herd of charging bulls.<br /><br />For the Rohirrim the horse archers do seem to have been deadly shots, the glint of firelight on his knife was enough for one to put an arrow through Grishnak. I might be tempted to put the horse archers in separate supporting bands of skirmishers rather than mixed in with the spearmen. More like Goths with Alan allies than Byzantines.<br /><br />The Black undercoat does help here, Doesn't jump out like white or light grey (let alone bare metal).<br /><br />Enjoyable post for humans.<br />Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519665561624985779.post-60139159691748515772015-12-11T03:42:57.804-08:002015-12-11T03:42:57.804-08:00Alas no pictures here either!

Very interesting to see how cavalry works and, more importantly, not works. This will require some thinking, some testing and some more thinking, I reckon. I hope that the Penguin Brigade will get some games going in 2016, otherwise Koen has bought a few hundred figures for no good reason...;-)<br /><br />We have a different take on the base premise too. I want to play out scenes from the movies so Impact Wargs sounds fine to me. I need to have a proper look at Raiders and see what can be used when rating Evil forces.Thomas Nissvikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11635793244352536541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519665561624985779.post-33018902420941582802015-12-11T01:21:47.270-08:002015-12-11T01:21:47.270-08:00Mike, I'm having trouble with the photos, do n...Mike, I'm having trouble with the photos, do not show neither in my laptop nor in my iPadAnibal Invictushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00574972963418062956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519665561624985779.post-33093149935558575352015-12-11T00:04:02.391-08:002015-12-11T00:04:02.391-08:00A great game in the spirit of Tolkien (excluding L...A great game in the spirit of Tolkien (excluding Luigi's input).Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.com
