Instead Brad H and I pitted our forces of Mordor against Mark R's Misty Mountain goblins.
It was the first time I used magic and I definitely think no more than one magic-user per side and only one Epic/Legendary hero is the way to go with WotR. Like most Games Workshop games, the basic mechanics are clean and elegant, creating a fun but nevertheless rather subtle game. It is the overpowered nature of characters that can slow things down.
Bruce also recommended afterwards that only one character for each full 1000 points in your force.
Looking forward to more games in the future.
