Hi! Thanks to all!!!!
As far as siege rules I used my own house rules combined with some rules from the Siege and Conquest rules from Warhammer.
Most of the towers did not make it to the wall before the Mordor army was routed. It was my first game at a Epic sized battle of that nature. I did use the WOTR epic battle rules to play the game, keep in my it was a solo game so I was activating a unit at a time on each side, etc...to put tactics in the game. It was fun, some people cant play solo games and have fun, but that is a lot of fun for myself. I do not really have much of a choice. The game took me several days, I think about 2 weekends. The weekdays are tough for me to game with two daughters.
My table is 12' x 16' shaped almost like a "U". There is about 18" of dead space, but I use a yard stick to push units across the table. I use movement trays in large battles. Most of my battles I play are all epic. I will someday play smaller games in the house on the kitchen table, but have not done so yet.
I made majority of my movement trays, but I also use the WH trays, depending on how many models I have on the table.
It took about 7 weeks roughly to make, and I worked on it for at least 3 hours a night and all day long on the weekends. I wished it would have turned out better, but it was my very first time at making anything. But it is good enough to game with. Plus it gave me a reason to buy 3 sets of the GW Minas Tirith walls. I made a template out of the battlements, but I raised the walls about 2 inches.
The whole castle is amazingly strong.
As far as the links, I couldnt figure out which code to use for the url, so I used Img in hopes of it working. Which code do I use, maybe I am being stupid.
