did GW ever do a game box for this or just "Battle of the five armies"?
Im toying with the idea of collecting 10mm forces for this battle and would appreciate any input : mini manufacturers, scenery, rules system (the simpler the better), pics of your painted figures/conversions, troop types needed anything.

Copplestone castings have a good looking line of model that could easily represent rohan and gondor under their fantasy line. They also have some good orcs, half orcs, trolls and wargs.
For the fallen lands i'd recommend finding 10mm Arabs, Persian or Saracens. I believe Pendraken has a line of them.
I also believe Eureka Minis has a 10mm mumak but probably jumping a scale to 15mm and finding an elephant with howdah would work too.

Thanks i will check that lot out.
