UK Wargamers Lord of the Rings Cast

 

 

     
The Forces of "Evil"    
     
Sauron Phil Barker Never says much to us, deafening aura from Barad-DBM
Witch King of Angmar Bodley Scott Comes out to play more often, looks good at half time, still hasn't fought Gandalf properly
     
Saruman Nik Gaukroger Has become a trusted input to Sauron - must have a palantir somewhere at home
Grima Wormtongue Tim Childs The legal intracacies of it all…………I must advise you
     
The Nazgul Halifax Wargames Club Out of the dark wastelands they ride - almost to victory…..
Cave Troll Graham Briggs Tells me he was in fact employed by Peter Jackson for the dummy shoot
Mountain Troll Mike Goss Apparently Graham had the wrong physique to model this one
Balrog Brigante A team stacked God help the one at the bottom but the weight and attitude is perfect
Lurtz Jez Evans Apparently its obvious……..
Shelob UK1 Ghent - all Reigate Eight legs, hard to beat and generally disliked by the population
     
The forces of "Good"    
     
Frodo Tom Elsworth Has the hair, has the bounce
Sam Pete Reilly Has the Hairy feet I hear.
     
Gandalf JDMcNeil Certainly looks 3000 years old, often forgets his own name, often disagrees with Saruman
     
Aragorn Simon Hall Sadly not my pulling power with the ladies…. A few crowns I suppose and a dwarf as a best friend
Legolas Dave Madigan Tall and aging well at 2800 years, likes his Bowmen, best in the wilderness of NZ
Gimli Terry Shaw Short, bearded, tough as old boots and often found next to Aragorn fighting against the odds
Boromir Iain McNeil Courageous and perhaps the best fighter, but now sadly lost to the scene
Pippin Andy Willcox Ever the cheerful one….."never mind Graham at the end of the day, we've got Pinner"
Merry Graham Evans The serious driving force "if these buggers keep winning, there won't be a Pinner Pip"
     
The Lady Galadriel James Hamilton Must be the hair, and she was pretty unlucky (ring failure, had to move house…)
Elrond Dave Fairhurst Quietly capable and only needs to bump Wayne off now to get his wife back!!
Arwen Katie Fairhurst Aragorn taught her well how to deal with nasty opponents like Mountain Trolls
     
Theoden Ian Stewart Stately, thoughtful and leads a good mounted charge
Theodred Ben Stewart Small part so far - now need to up his game for a longer role
Eomer Eric Doman Vanishes into the wilderness and reappers for a victory - generally with lots of horsemen
Eowyn Lynda Fairhurst The one and only lady conqueror of a wargaming giant - reputedly Terry is a giant
Denethor Keith Martin-Smith Grumpy and bossy, gives the impression he would rather partner Boromir, oh OK maybe not!!
Faramir Wayne Dare Nice guy coping as best he can the Steward of Pinner - until he can find some matches
     
Treebeard Ian Pudney "now lets not be too hasty master wargamer"……….
King of the Dead Paul Robinson Nice beard, even has the guant look now he is up half the night; easily angered
Tom Bombadil Jeremy Morgan Only person with suitable yellow and green striped trousers and a bouncy gait
Ents Dave Allen It’s a beard thing and can only handlle the big figures these days
  Phil Steele More of a bread thing HOHOOM
  Graham Fordham Red beard thing DONK
The horn of Hammerhand Hans Kroonenberg Easily heard even at several miles distance, hard on the ears at short range
