Lord of the Rings Chess

I'm sure various LotR chess sets have been made. But what if you were in charge of creating a LotR chess set? What pieces would you choose? I think I would pick this for a standard White/Good vs. Black/Evil game of characters from LotR:

White
King - Aragorn
Queen - Arwen (obviously)
Bishops - Gandalf and Elrond
Knights - Eomer and Faramir
Rooks - Minas Tirith and The Last Homely House
Pawns - I'd make them all hobbits . Bilbo, Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Fredegar, Gaffer, Rosie Cotton

Black
King - Sauron
Queen - Shelob (ok, so they're not married, but she's the only major female villain)
Bishops - Saruman and Mouth of Sauron
Knights - A Nazgul and the Balrog (not really a knight, but too powerful to be a pawn )
Rooks - Barad-dur and Orthanc
Pawns - Gollum, an orc, a troll, an Uruk-hai, an Olog-hai, a Warg, a Barrow Wight, and a Snaga.

What would you pick?
