Combat Patrol, starter-box halves and bulk troop lots are the best per-point Rivendell value.
Collecting & army-building advice
Rivendell armies reward picking a colour identity early and committing to it across the force. Most Rivendell collectors build around a Combat Patrol or starter-box half, then expand with second-hand troop blocks and a centrepiece character or monster. Batch-painting troops with contrast paints over zenithal grey is the fastest route from grey plastic to tabletop-ready.
