Make Orcs with them. Who wouldn't want an Orcish Horde to conquer. I think
the Fright Knight shields with the bat work perfectly for this. Give them
original style swords and axes and you have a perfect Horde. They seem to fit
right in with the Skeleton Army and the Deamon Riders (made with a bunch of
mounted Bat Lords).

I've been toying with much the same idea recently. In fact, there are a lot of
Lego elements that work fine for the Hordes of Morgul Vale. Jar Jar, skeletons,
Darth Vader and Darth Maul's face, the pharoah face, and as you said, a lot of
the Bat Lord equipment. Really, anything that can be fashioned to suggest
general nastiness works fine.
Also, the Wringwraiths are easily interpreted, and I can easily imagine
footsoldiers of Gondor wearing the new Renaissance helms. (If only Lego would
design a white tree in bloom as a shield crest.)

Give poor Jar Jar a break! An orc! How demeaning!
I am actually using him in his original incarnation as a bouncer at my "Star
Wars" themed night club.

I think of that as an honor. Gives an otherwise useless fig something to do.
There is only so many times I'd want to re-enact "Jar Jar and the Accidental
Victory." Orcs get much more respect than Gungans in my book.

I don't see how that is any less 'demeaning'. Gungans being in a Star Wars
film, now that's demeaning.
Ah well to each his own.
