Dwarves are a bit spread out, and need lots of
communication. Noldo? Sinda?
DS - BS, DkL, QA, FK
The Blind Sorceror takes immense economic juggling. It
starts with NO emmys, a huge deficit, few resources,
the biggest army in the game, NO commanders besides
the one heading the army (which needs to get moving
instantly) and lots of mages (which take a long time
to become satisfying).
Teammates will differ on whether to use the army or
dump it (which relieves the BlS at the expense of the
team), and it's tough for a newbie to gauge the
options.
The QA is tricky, too -- it's a diplomatic postion
before anything else, and some neutrals don't give
much credit to newbies.
Suggested DS list: LR, FK, DkL, CL.

IMO Noldo are too important. Dwarves are safe and can't get attacked for a long time - hence ideal for new players. I think Sindar are fine for new players. Not essential to the FP win, but able to help out with a nice mix of characters as well. Not the best choice for a new player.

*** It teaches them a little about combat although I agree I have seen a couple of new players blow up due to the strain of the BS army. Other than that, no nation has Emis to start with, but the BS is simple to play and reasonably safe. I think with the proviso that be wary of the use of the army (get team advice) it's a sound nation.
The QA is tricky, too -- it's a diplomatic postion
before anything else, and some neutrals don't give

*** I agree, but there with the list below that's only 3 nations that I can offer (I don't agree about the CL - too important for the well being of the DS).
