Miniature Feature - Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game, Seven of the Nine

Seven of the Nine ringwraiths is finally finished and I hope you like the result. These models will soon see some action atop the gaming board when we start our Fellowship of the Ring campaign which will be featured here in the near future.

If you want to know how I painted these I described it in the miniature painting log a while ago!

In-game I'm not completely sold on the effectiveness on these models. They look cool, act cool but couldn't kill a  starving lemming in close combat. At least they have a problem to take on good heroes (even the hobbits) unless they have some backup.

Together with other soldiers of Sauron however is a completely different story. They are great anti-wizard tools and together with other troops they easily help kill the best of heroes. But on their own they quickly drain their will and poof out of existance. Unless in combat with a bearer of the one ring they tend to run out of will before they kill anything.

It could be just me that havent learned how to play a side consisting of 3-9 ringwraiths and hopefully I will get more use of them using a different tactic later. We will see in the future when we do the Fellowship of the ring campaign.
