Lord of the Minis

Rodney's Challenge is here. I'm going to repost for the non-Myspace folks!

Dungeaon and Dragon Mini's challenge.

Heres the challenge. The Lord of the Minis

Each player must make 2 warbands.

Warband 1: 200 points. Faction: Good (Lawful and Chaotic) Must contain 4 Halflings, 1 Human Warrior, I Elf, 1 Dwarf, 1 Wizard.

Player must choose one of the halflings to represent Frodo.

The goal of the good side is to have Frodo get from one side of the map to the other side of the map. Secondary goal kill off opponents warband.

Warband 2: 200 points Faction: Evil (Lawful and Chaotic) Must contain 8 orcs. No minions allowed. The goal of the evil side is too kill Frodo. Secondary goal is to kill the opponents warband.

The map we will be using is the Kings Road.

Each player will have the opportunity to play both warbands.

All other skirmish rules are in effect, such as Line of sight and commander effects.

Good Luck!

Just my two cents.

This one will be tough on me Rodney, as I can't use Orog and otherwise I'm not even sure I will be able to manage 200 points of Orcs! If I had to guess I'd say the good guys have a little bit of the upper hand if they can keep Frodo out of contact with the enemy. The good guys will make for a good ranged band and a couple of the orcs may be dead before they make it to the other side due to their generally low hp. Anyhow, we'll see, it sounds like a great challenge!

Oh, if I can't use Orog can I use half-orcs?

Looking at my good warband, I'd say Orog and friends should definitely be legal. He's the only thing that will likely stand up to a good good band except Orc Champions and Eye's of Gruumsh. (and I have neither of those)

And without Orog and not being able to use the Half-Orc Paladin because he is good, I don't even own another Orc commander...

Just my thoughts and I felt like whining this morning...;)

Yeah half-orcs can be used, if their evil, I can't think of any off the top of my head.
Orog is legal just not his Minions.
Remember on The Kings Road there is forrest terrain which blocks line of sight, and Orcs gerenally have the advantage of speed.
When I played this against Zack his Orcs had engaged my Heros by the second round not giving me any time to get off many range attacks.
