Actually, I think that's an incredible idea! This is the first "What if..." that I've seen that actually makes sense and could work. <P>I agree that the addition of the Grey Company would have added so much more to the movie, even if the addition was just pure drama. Picture it, especially in the Black Fleet. Instead of just Aragorn leaping over the edge, we'd have Ranger after Ranger following their Chieftain into battle after him, along with, of course, Legolas and Gimli. It would be so much more dramatic.
