Gentlemen, I have hit upon an idea: Elven Siege Bows! Take a regular elven archer and build up his bow so it resembles the Assymetric Bow used by Japanese samurai.
I'll try to get some pictures up as soon as I can. However, we now need to move the conversation over Here.

They do.

Gildor and his pals chase off Khamul the Easterling in the books. Glorfindel chases off four of them.

The Nazgul's power is fear. The Elves aren't afraid of them. The Nazgul have little power over Elves. The real reason Nazgul are dangerous to Elves is that the Nazgul can gather armies and using their innate terror causing ability, they could thrust an army against the Elves, until the Elves are overwhelmed.

But any of the Elder elves should be able to tell a Nazgul to naff off without much thinking.

It's just that in the game, Nazgul have to have some sort of use beyond "scare the bejesus out of random hobbits."

Khamul the Easterling isn't in the books. Or the films. GW made him up.

He was in the books, being the only ringwraith named apart from the Witch-King. He is only briefly mentioned though. :)

he is created and named by Tolkien, however his name is not mentioned in LotR itself, only in other writings (i'm not sure as to wether Khamul is the one Gildor chased away) :wink:

Khamûl was the one in the films who said "Shire, Baggins" to Farmer Maggot. Can't remember where I heard that though, but I'm almost certain he is.
