Wow! There’s so much coming and the new king of the dead looks incredible I want literally all of those made to orders.

Feels kinda like when your waiting for a bus and two come along at once, but in this case I want to jump on both.

I’ll look forward to some new Rohan and Isenguard models for the new rules.

I am quite impressed by the new dead models. They are quite snazzy.

I am not thrilled by the card system, more bits to loose, but that is just me.

The War in Rohan should be very cool. Not sure what they have left to release for Rohan but we might get a new Grimbold, Theodred, or Erkenbrand out of it. A legion for the westfold would suit me really well since I have been aiming to make such an army for years and it will help break Rohan out of that Theoden/Gamling meta. I think I will pick that one up when it comes out.

I'm wondering if we will get some new Isengard models in the Rohan supplement, since it mentions the battle of Helm's Deep. After all, there were some nice Forge World orcs in the Gondor supplement.

But are there any Isengard characters from the film that we are missing? I suppose they might be able to invent a new Uruk or two if not.

Also wondering who will be next to get the plastic treatment after Theoden, Gandalf, Eowyn, the Three Hunters and King of the Dead. If they're aiming to end up with a full plastic range for Pelennor fields, maybe there could be a plastic Gothmog on the way? And do we perhaps need a plastic Witch King on foot to go with the fell beast version everyone got in the latest starter set?

(I want plastic Captain Boromir, with sprue having full sword, lance and banner options for horse and foot!)

I am very happy that the next book will be War in Rohan. I do have higher expectations than for the previous two supplements, because I really, really want new Ent models (including named ones) and re-releases of all the Dunlendings, Théodred and Sharku.

Some new poses of normal Uruk-hai would be awesome too.

All looks good, was hoping still for last alliance but Rohan would be OK too. Maybe they will flesh out the Dunland list some more.

I would love to see the Last Alliance too, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Waited the whole original run to no avail.

I have mixed feelings about the cards. On one hand, they look pretty cool, and would likely be handy. But it depends on the cost, plus it could become a pain trying to complete a collection.

I think I just got ran over by the bus. Makes me glad I lost my ebay auctions today, anyway. I've been making cards on index cards forever, so I'm as happy as a pig in manure. I might even splurge and buy the dice.

I was going to bet the next big supplement was Dwarves v. Goblins. I hope these guys do get a big supplement, there are so many great scenarios that are long out of print for them. Plus, who doesn't want dwarf terrain? You know you do--look at the price the Mines of Moria terrain set is going for on the secondary market these days. I still love Rohan. Maybe we'll get a Rohan house kit.

Great to see the old fellowship metal orcs, casualties, kings of men and dwarf king's rereleased. I'll be picking up one of each.

Also hopeful like many of you we get some new Isengard models and Dunlendings brought back. Rohan's already had plenty of love with new heroes, it's the Uruks turn now! Wouldn't say no to scenery either.

Looking forward to Rohan supplement! Maybe we’ll finally see Éomer without helmet with some nice dynamic fighting pose. Been waiting for that since Two towers.

Ouch that pre-order stung the wallet. Aww well means I don’t need to eBay it for a number of those.

Should really update a new trade post I’ve a few duplicates of the Orcs that could doing with a trade rather than eBay them.

What you guys going for?

Again wish I could afford everything from this batch. Will just keep it to the dwarf Kings and moria goblins myself.

I'm going for the old orc sculpts for the nostalgia and to add some variety to my mordor orcs.

I already got the kings of men and dwarf kings. However, I might splurge and get the death of gothmog. I hope they rerelease the death of the witch king.

My Palantir reveals we will be seeing a plastic Eomer kit in the first wave of releases from the new Rohan supplement ;) (unconfirmed and unverified of course!) I would like to see Eorl the Young return, with a new dynamic pose, Theodred with new sculpt. On the historical side of things Helm Hammerhand is an absolute must along with the associated Dunlendings from that era.

All previously released Dunland models should be made available to order including the Command would be great!! I would love to see this supplement focus on Dunland not the fighting Uruk Hai for a change. With that said a new Sharku with a decent weapon would be good. Also, Saruman’s henchmen would be a good release for Forgeworld. That’s my two cents on this upcoming release!

Did I need more Orcs - no. Did I buy more orcs? - yes.

Almost bought the Casualty Pack - but for that price I could buy off Ebay some plastic figures of any faction I needed bodies for and with an x-acto knife make my own.

There’s Guthlaf, Théoden’s personal banner-bearer, that for some reason we didn’t get in the Gondor at War supplement.

Maybe some adventures of Thorongil. Aragorns exploits into Rohan going to War with Thengel. That will be a nice few scenarios or settings.
