What armies are you building/starting, are you going to make your own movement trays or buy them, and how many points do you expect to end up playing for most games?

I'm sticking with my gondor army of minas tirith, with men of the dead and Ents. I figure i'll buy my movement trays, and i'm guna shoot for 2-3k point army.

I've heard nothing but praise from the people who tried it. It really speeds up the game and lets you throw tons and tons of dice. If it weren't for these bad times I'd be getting myself an army of Haradrim, with several Mumakil.

one of the guys at my local store wants to run like 7 mumaks at one point and time.

Mumak are neat alright but those Haradrim Raiders are also something, they've got a nice fast and agile look to them.

I'm starting a new 1500 point Isengard army. Mostly filled with Urak Hai phalanxes and scouts but i'll also include Sharku, Saraman, Grima and possibly bring in an allied Ringwraith (Might have the Dark Marshall and a unit of Black Numoreans to back them up) But the good thing is they'll be the only metal models, the rest will be all plastic and i can include some trolls to boot.

I've been play testing with some friends, and so far it seems to do the job. The only downside is that without the Dark Marshel i'm getting outflanked left and right so an army like this needs speed.

I've decided to start a new army:

Ghaladrim. Lots of elves led by Haldir (as he's getting new models out soon) and i'm going to add some Mirkwood elves led by Legolas and Thranduil.
