PS:
I think I'll go with their nazgul pairings :D

"Q: Are the new Nazgûl profiles (with the exceptions of the
Witch-king and Khamûl) specifically related to the other
named Ringwraiths, meaning that certain combinations of
new and old Ringwraiths aren’t possible? (p.112 & 113)
A: No. The new Nazgûl of Dol Guldur profiles
represent the Ringwraiths at the time of The Hobbit™,
and as such they have different titles to those they
adopt at the time of the War of the Ring. Because of
this, there is no definitive way of saying which of the
new Nazgûl becomes which named Ringwraith – that
is all up to your imagination (and could be a fun
exercise to try to work out). When we playtested
these, we used The Shadow Lord as the Lingering
Shadow, The Betrayer as the Forsaken, The Dark
Marshal as the Dark Headsman, The Undying and
The Tainted as the two Abyssal Knights, and The
Dwimmerlaik and The Knight of Umbar as the two
Slayers of Men."

Rams are here!

via Warhammer Community - some new cute Orcs :)

"Under the command of Bolg, Castellan of Mount Gundabad, the Gundabad Berserkers sprint towards The Battle of the Five Armies.

Brandishing a variety of vicious swords, axes and war-picks, it won’t be long before you can add these stunning Forge World miniatures to your army and swell the ranks of Azog’s Legion to strike fear into the hearts of your enemies.

Gundabad Berserkers are stronger, tougher and faster than most other Orcs, and it’s these hulking monstrosities that Bolg brings to reinforce Azog™ in the battle atop Ravenhill."

Today I want to give you a (potential) look at the upcoming Nazgûl of Dol Guldur models - we finally got rules for them, and now I want to try to assign them to the Weta Workshop movie CGI models.

I need to admit, I was pretty shocked when I saw that they only did seven "titles" for them, but it looks like Weta only did six unique ringwraiths for the movie - so it's no fault on GW's part. It's not really easy to make them out from the movie alone, as they are moving pretty fast - well, let's take a look at the CGI models!

Today I want to give you a look at the past of Citadel (and Games Workshop!). Did you knew that they used to do Middle-Earth stuff almost 30 years ago? Citadel took the middle-earth licence over from Grenadier in 1985, and the license passed to Mithril Miniatures around 1987 again. They also produced some alternate models including Orcs, Elves, Dwarves and the "army of the dead" which, funny enough, were later rolled into various Warhammer ranges once the Middle-Earth license was lost.

Good news for all fans of middle-earth - the new Hobbit Sourcebook (for cheap 35 pounds) and the Laketown Houses (for even cheaper 25 pounds) will be up for pre-order on November 26.

As said before, the houses are modular and should be useful for middle-earth games, AoS or even Mordheim. The rulesbook contains everything you need to re-play the last two hobbit movies (yes, rules without models!).
