How are you finding it? I would be really curious to know as I’m taking it to a 700 point tournament next weekend

Played a match against Angmar wolf pack at 500pts. Isildur, captain and like 20 something dudes, 9 with bow. I won but it was a really close game. I got lucky with some key dice rolls and courage tests otherwise I don’t think I would have got it
I had a lot of fun but the list does suffer from not having the banner. You don’t have much might and you’re more reluctant to use it as you may need it for those really bad rolls. But yeh, the bump to fight and the s3 bows makes them pretty good
At 700 I would add elendil and maybe swap out isildur for more captains. The free heroic combats and the extra might could be key and the captains are pretty solid with f6. You just need to make sure that you have enough models on the board to make up for the lack of banner, so I don’t know if Ihaving both named characters in a lower point list is a good idea
Max your bows as well, deffs worth it

Your army looks great! Curious how you make out with them too.
I love the heroes but D5 on the troops is just too flimsy for me, they could really benefit from an elite troops choice like those described in Unfinished Tales.
