Adam Troke (Games Development): This army is another great example of how Easterlings can be combined effectively with other Evil models. To build a powerful army, add a Haradrim Chieftain and models from a single box of Haradrim Warriors to a box of Easterling Warriors, a box of Kataphrakts, and Khamûl the Easterling. After building this army, you will still have a few spare Easterling Warriors and a Haradrim banner bearer to use later.
On the battlefield, this army has the potential to cause your enemy a lot of problems with its excellent mix of missile troops and close-combat specialists. The Haradrim bowmen are among the best shooting troops that Evil generals have at their disposal, and 11 of them are nothing to sniff at. Their good range, Shoot value, and cheap cost are a real boon to any Evil player. A word of warning, though: they have a low Defence that requires careful usage.
The rest of the army can form an effective 'Hammer and Anvil' formation. The Haradrim Warriors and Easterlings on foot can form into one big block. The Easterlings with shields take the front rank, and all the spear-armed warriors form up behind them. This formation is the anvil for your hammer, which is Khamûl and the Kataphrakts, who can smash into anyone hasty enough to take on your big block of spearmen. This suitably dastardly tactic is completely appropriate for an Evil army such as this one.
