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).

Speaking of orcs, has everyone seen the preview bits online for The Lord of
the Rings Trilogy?  Very cool looking...

:)

That's what gave me the idea.

I got it from
http://www.movie-list.com

I belive someone already noted that the Download of this preview already broke
the record set by SW Ep1.  TLC are you listening?  Licence Lord of The Rings,
it has more fans than Star Wars.  (Everyone I know that likes SW likes LOTR • but
even People who don't like SW like LOTR.)

Lord Insanity
(who is going back to "smashing" Knight's Kingdom Archers with 'Jar Jar'
Orcs.)

   Tsk tsk.  Lord of the Rings?  Isn't that the story of those little boys who
live on the island and kill each other?  I think the one was named Piggy?  :O)
   Sorry, but you there's no comparison between the pop culture recognition of
Star Wars to any Tolkien book.  I promise.

(...) No, that's Gilligan's Island. At least, the episode I wanted to see but they never aired. :-, LotF is such a psycho book. I was about to throw it away at the end, until the very last bit where the guy looks at the ship...then it all clicked. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Apr-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

Just in case you still haven't figured this out. (...) That is Lord of the Flies. Big Difference. (...) Ha Ha. Lord of the Rings is so ingrained into pop-culture you don't even know it.
