I've got all of my mass combat game rules saved as a pdf file. Perhaps I
can interest Joe in putting them up on the web site so you can download
them. A blow-by-blow might be hard to do but I'll try and put together
some of the more interesting combinations I've seen over the past
several years and post it to the list sometime in the near future.

> Do any of your huge-melee teams ride in on warhorses, Cavalry Lances levelled?

I've never tried warhorses. Guess what I'll be doing next game? I'll
give each team four foot soldiers and a mounted warrior. Thanks for the
idea. 

> Do the huge-melees allow magic items, or just native talents?

We don't use magic items or talents. That would complicate things way
too much, especially when you're dealing with 25 to 40 figures. The main
idea is that everyone starts with the same point spread to keep things
fair. It's what you do with your points that makes these games so
interesting. Of course we allow Wizards. You'd be foolish not to take
one (or two) (or five).

> What's a Balrog look like, stats-wise?

I'm working up all of the stats for the Bridge of Khazad-Dum scenario so
I can post something soon.

Thanks for the warm welcome!
