ME New 2950 Gunboat duos

I've been looking at the 2950 GB games and presntly it's majorly in
advantage of the DS. With that in mind I think that the following bolsters
the FPs somewhat. Opinions welcome. (Note it's around 83% win for DS at
present).

Variant Nations for new game:

2950 FP:
1 Woodmen/ 7 SouthGondor
2 Northmen/ 8 Dwarves
3 Riders of Rohan/ 10 Noldo
4 Dunadan Rangers/ 9 Sindar
5 Silvan / 24 White Wizard
6 NorthGondor/ 23 Dunlendings

DS:
11 WitchKing/ 21 Corsairs
12 DragonLord/ 25 Khand
13 DogLord/ 20 DarkLieutenants
14 Cloud Lord/ 18 FireKing
15 Blind Sorcerer/ 16 Ice King
17 Quiet Avenger/ 19 LongRider

No RE

Normal set-up for reference:
2950 FP: 1/10 Woodmen/Noldo, 2/9 NorthMen/Sindar, 3/22 Riders/Rhun, 4/6
Dunadan/NorthGondor, 5/7 SouthGondor/ Silvan, 8/23 Dwarves/Dunlendings
DS: 11/14 WitchKing/Cloud Lord, 12/21 DragonLord/Corsairs,
13/19DogLord/LongRider, 15/18 Blind Sorcerer/FireKing, 16/20 Ice
King/DarkLieutenants, 17/24 Quiet Avenger/White Wizard

Personally I like the current combos. Cloud Lord/Fire King would be hell for the Gondors too.

Obviously we could try it out and see what happens. (I wonder why you might think this now though <grin>)

Well I did mention it before and as we're currently filling a new game it's most pertinent. I think both teams are strengthened by this but the FPs more.

Latest updates to the thoughts so far. With 8 players signed up for this format I'd love to have more format - is this an improvement, worst etc.

Thanks - Clint
