WOTR HOBBIT Releases Houserules by GtW (Finally.. An Update)

There are still those who play WOTR, but with the change in prices over the past eight years it will not attract newcomers. I run a WOTR scenario at every wargame convention I attend and always get plenty of players.

Here's an alternative take on the Abrakhan Guard/Golden King:

The Golden Company of Abrakhan Legendary Formation (115pts + 35pts per company)
One to Nine companies

Name M F S D A R C Mt
Abrakhan Merchant Guards 6” 4/- 4 4 8 1 4 –
The Golden King of Abrakhan – 5/- - - - 2 5 3

Wargear
Two-handed weapons

Special Rules:
Chop: Abrakhan Merchant Guards do not receive the -1 penalty to their Fight Value for wielding two-handed weapons.
The Golden Hoard: Each time an enemy formation or Hero within 12” of the Golden King (measure the distance from the Golden King model) must take a courage test, the Golden King may attempt to bribe them. The controlling player may choose to use this rule. If so, roll a D6. On the roll of a 5+, the enemy’s courage is treated as 2 lower than it is due to being bribed. On the roll of a 1, the enemy’s courage is instead treated as 1 higher due to strength of resolve.

Well, I'll have the WotR profiles for all the Hobbit There and Back Again book done up as soon as I'm able to get it done, it doesn't matter what Forgeworld has released yet, in fact, at the rate of release, I'll have the houresrules up before everything is released. So that as well as the above stuff, there's also the Nazgul and Laketown Heroes and Goblin Mercs and so on, though I'm struggling to think of how to do the Dol Guldur Nazgul, I think all as one Legendary formation but not sure.
I'm also going to rearrange all the Hobbit stuff to match the newer arrangement as soon as I'm able, which will incorporate the new stuff organically.

In the meantime, if anyone wants to do any playtesting, feel free and get back to me with your thoughts.

I like the new Abrakhan Guard profile you made. They were always underwhelming, even in the Battlehost.
