A few years ago, my cousins gave me some of their miniatures since they were quitting the hobby. I've used most of their miniatures but I have these 6 plastic Numenoreans and I'm not quite sure what to do with them. I gave their shields to my Fountain Guard. I want to give them new shields and proxy them as someone else. Maybe fiefdom troops? Does anyone have any ideas?

Dead Marsh Specters would be perfect... even without the shields they can work.
Of course many of the Fiefdoms could work as a troop type with a variant paint and shield.

Maybe Dol Amroth? They look similar enough IMO

Yeah both ideas are good and for the Dol Amroth maybe some Men-at-Arms without pikes could work :)

Use them as statues. Paint them grey and stick them to a raised cobble stoned base.

You could also use them for army of the dead, with a bit of converting.
But when you give them some alternative weapons & shield, they can make very good fiefdom/dol amroth troops.
If you wish to use them , you can also make knights of the tower?? out of them ( the gondor knight from the command pack) :)

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking of using them as citadel guard, but I'll need to get new shields for them. What do you think of that idea?

Either Dol Amroth warriors, or alternatively, customise your own Osgiliath Veterans or Fountain Court guard. So long as they still wield the same weaponry as per the rules I'm sure no one would contend with you.

Citadel Guard without spears would definitely work but all the other ideas are also good :)

Make a banner bearer. Or some Numenorean cavalry?

If you could find them shields and do some work with one to make him a captain, you could run them as a captain in heavy armour with shield and 5 numenorians with shields, comes in at 100pts and can be a nifty edition to an elven or dwarf force to boost their numbers
