No, because the facings have no relation to this question (as per FAQ, the WK doesn't apply to rear arc, but just "behind").

Exactly, the FAQ is praticularly concerned on making sure the W-K's rule is as vague as possible.

This weekend we had a WOTR conquest, 1250 points. I took the Betrayer with morannon orcs, and the Dwimmerlaik on Fell Beast. I lost both of my game, but my Nazguls survived :D
Conclusion: Maybe 2 nazgul in an 1250 points army is too much, cause the enemy could brought more formations, than me. Otherwise, they were usefull, cause their magic is very effective. I killed Radagast at my first game. I decided, next time, I will choose the leader/king of the enemy, and I will kill it with my nazguls. The fellbeast itself is not that useful, as I thought.

Oh, and I learned a new rule again. You can jump with your epic hero to another formation, distance max. 12 inch. Damm you, Theoden.

Two Nazgul isn't even close to too much, I think that (besides the Fell Beast) you must have had some other "for fun" things in it, and at a tournament, that gets slaughtered.

I agree with Telchar. I might add that I'm surprised you didn't notice that Epic Heroes can move, though that explains the way you write army lists.

The above picture looks nice too, nicely painted 'Balrog' wings on your Fell Beast 8)

Yeah and the range is 18'' not 12'' it is on page 68 under Moving Epic Heroes in my army Galadriel and the Twins (who are also really good in SBG aswell well worth buying even to use as allies) jump around the battlefield like mad men/woman in fact that is one of the things that make Epics so much better than captains you should use this ability to the best of your ability and remember you have to use it at the start of you formation move but that doesn't mean you can't move the formation you want them to go to first so they are within 18''

I just spotted why you got outnumbered: Is that a banner? IMO, you really shouldn't take banners at all, but if you want to, you can have one or two in formations that absolutely MUST charge (6 coy cavalry for instance), but not in you Orc horde.

Because Banners cot too much, and charging doesn't provide enough of a benefit an Orc infantry block to be worth it. Nor is the panic, just move a courage 5+ hero in there.
