The Fortress of Isengard

February 2011·p. 37

THE SHORT VERSION

Nick Bayton builds Isengard around durable Uruk-hai formations, particularly pike phalanxes able to blunt Rohan’s cavalry. Cheaper Orcs and Dunlendings expand the army, while Trolls protect an Assault Ballista and add counterattack strength. Four Uruk-hai boxes provide a practical core of pikes and shielded warriors; Saruman, Lurtz, Gríma and Thrydan offer very different forms of leadership and disruption.
