Looks solid to me. All I'd suggest is finding the points to upgrade one of the Sword+Shield guys in each Uruk warband to a Banner. With the Captain/Lurtz in the front rank you'll have a guy left over at the end of the row, which I prefer to have as a banner bearer to multiply the effectiveness of the shieldwall.

To find the points, I'd drop whatever Orcs you find least useful.

Cheers, Well i can drop the two orcs in band 4 and maybe take some of the stat boost off the ring wraith, should do it

I would consider a shaman. Fury is kind of a big deal
