Lord of the Rings - Forces of Mordor Gallery

Introduction

These forces are a lot more diverse than the Good Alliance who mainly consist of humans. Unfortunately the choices for the human allies are limited and I'm still trying to find troops for these forces that I like. For the Easterlings I will use Man Orcs and for Haradrim I will use Dark Age figures as there is not much in the fantasy range that matches the books.

All the figures are Irregular unless otherwise stated. They are all based for Fantasy rules although the Characters are mounted on coins for practical reasons. The unit bases are 40x40mm and 40x20mm (2 bases make a 40x40mm unit) and the coins are old NZ 2c coins.

Lord of the Nazgul. This is someone you wouldn't like to meet in a dark alley.	Mordor Cavalry. These are Man Orc cavalry figures and I used them because I thought the armour looked right.
Gothmog from the First Age. This is a 25mm familiar that has been converted by adding a flaming whip to his hand. Definitely wouldn't want to meet this guy in a dark alley.	Mumakil. This is a Mammoth from the creatures range with a few spare figures on the base. I think I will replace this will some 10 or 15mm elephants instead.
Mordor Trolls. These are Games Workshop Snotlings of which I had some spare ones lying around. It looks like they haven't brushed their teeth in a while!
