"For the Shire!". Some people don't count it as a battle cry, but I thought I'd share anyway!
"For the Shire!" definitely counts in my book. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

My personal favorite is "A Elbereth, Gilthoniel!", though who doesn't get chills with "Forth Eorlingas!"? And of course, the Ents' song is just amazing. I sing that to myself every now and then. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

"Day shall come again!" is another one that gave me chills. Also from the Silmarillion, though I don't know if this counts as a battle cry:

"Auta i lomë! The night is passing!"

But all the ones mentioned before are great, especially the Rohirrim ones. Those are usually the ones that make me want to jump up and cheer. Or something to that effect. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Also, to whoever mentioned Inigo's - I heartily agree on that one. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
