I like the scale, and I like LOTR, I just need models and rules. What figures could work for middle earth wargaming? What mass combat rules (preferably free) could be used? (I like WRG basing.. so if the game supports that even better) Any and all suggestions are welcome. Let me know Thank you Austin |

If you would accept 10mm Copplestone Casting does a great line of not-Middle Earth figs. I believe you can download the old GW Warmatser Rules free. I'll see if I can find the site. |

In 6mm Baccus have dwarves, elves, goblins. Normans would work for Rohan. I'm sure you could find historical proxies for Gondor, Rangers and the rest. Trolls and ents and such tho, and you'll have to look elsewhere. |

Goths make pretty good Rohirrim as well. |

15mm Fantasy Miniatures is a Yahoo group, in the files section is a Hott/DBA mash up that somebody made called De Bellis Frankenstein. There are also extensive army lists for LOTR, Hyboria, Young Kingdoms. Maybe worth a look. link |

I have a mishmash of 6mm figs for my fantasy project, Mircoworld is the best IMHO, but Irregular and Baccus fill things in nicely; Baccus has a different feel to their figs which makes them a bit harder to fit in with the others (some pointy hatted goblin figures for instance). I'm not doing LOTR specifically, but my collection will work for any battles I wanted to do in that setting, I'm using Mighty Armies rules (not free, but I think only $5 USD for the pdf). |

I decided 6mm was too small for fantasy and went with 10mm. FWIW. |

We play LOTR in 10mm using Warmaster ancients. |
