About this deal

If you're expecting me to say that every Mordor, Barad-Dur, and Isengard list should take at least one Mordor/Isengard Troll, you're going to be deeply disappointed.

While both Mordor and Barad-Dur (and most of the Legions from Mordor) have access to an Orc Drummer for 30pts, you COULD have +1 model by taking an Orc Drummer with . We will use anonymous information about the ad you saw and how you engaged with it to measure and improve our advertising campaigns in the future. A small number of these Trolls are gifted with a form of primordial cunning and intelligence, which makes them the leaders of their race and a far more dangerous foe than the rest of their kin.

I've talked about War Catapults a bit in several articles (most notably in our Back to Basics article on siege engines, as well as my review of the Army of Gothmog), but the most important thing to point out about this is that your Mordor Troll makes up 100pts of the 160 point siege engine, which means that the 3 Orcs, 3 points of heroic resources, and the Catapult itself only cost you 60pts - which is a steal! extra points to pick up D8 and swapping the flexibility of Bashing or Stunning (or Feinting) for shielding (or Feinting) might be worth it - though you'll actually pay 5pts more if you get a Drummer Troll variant (and because you swap the shield for the drum, you'll actually have exactly the same stats as a Mordor Drummer Troll .

Sending a S4 model at least 4" away from you should guarantee that the hero won't be able to charge you on the following round - and that means your opponent will have to find another way of dealing with you. Finally, any time you invest in a big monster, there's a good chance that your opponent might grab his handy-dandy Heroic Defense caddy to run right up to the Troll and say, "I see your F7 and I raise you a wound-me-only-on-natural-6s". For my part, I have no interest in running Isengard Trolls - they cut into my numbers too much because I like Uruk-Hai so much (whereas if I've got a bunch of 6-7pt Orcs, I can probably make space for a 100-130pt monster warrior). While we already mentioned at S4 heroes with no bonuses To Wound are likely to bounce off our Mordor Trolls without dealing much damage to them, D7 is also the gold standard for anti-archery - S3-4 bows will wound on 6s and S2 bows will wound on a 6/4+ (or 5/3+ if night conditions are in play).but at low points levels, you'll be hard-pressed to get your synergies to work properly if you're trying to pack in 2 Uruk-Hai Captains and 2 ballistas at 500pts . Tack some severed heads on that thing to cause devastation against low Courage armies and you're golden! Supporting models only add a single die though - and don't have access to BPAs - so in most situations, I think you want the sword.
