Hi all , so after many years of playing gondor I finally gave in to my dark side and bought the moria & angmar source book along with that I also got a great deal on eBay and picked up the following :-
Durbuz
Grinnah
Moria captain and shaman
Goblin town captain
93 moria goblins
36 goblin town goblins
3 moria trolls
Could someone please give me ideas on the best army to make out of what I've got . Also tactics would be very helpful as I'm use to a d6 spear supported shield wall!.

I'd say chose either moria or Goblin town because you have enough troops to use up all your heroes with just moria. While you are missing the units that make goblin town strong ie the great Goblin and the scribe.

Either way all you can really do is get as many goblins on the field as possible and fling them at the enemy. So basically

Durbuz
11 goblins
5 shield 6 spear and shield
1 troll

Captain
11 goblins
5 shield 6 shield and spear
1 troll

Grinnah
12 goblins
6 shield 6 shield and spear

Shaman
12 goblins
6 shield 6 shield and spear

Horde! Basically, mob your enemies, and don't get too disappointed when most of your troops die. That's what they're there for.

Alternatively, if you're any good at conversions, you could sculpt a dozen or so goblins to become Prowlers (give them hoods) or Gundabad Blackshields (fur pelt cloaks), so you have some muscle scattered in with your horde. You'll probably need to make another hero or two anyway, for Warbands.

And, most importantly, use the Fury spell! Maybe even convert another Shaman, so you can have Fury covering more troops.
