Does anyone have a decent Underground Swarm, maybe with weapons a la Orc Artisan? Mine is currently getting bent over. |

Scurrying Goblin x4 (cheap minion, twilight adding)
Orkish Footman x4 (cheap minion)
Orkish Warrior x4 (twilight adding)
Orkish Smith x3 (condition recycling)
Ordnance Grunt x3 (can be played from discard pile)
Champion Orc x4 (cheap minion)
Orc Plains Runner x3 (cheap, good stats, minion recycling)
Isengard Underling x2 (brings back massing strength)
Unforgiving Depths x2 (site manipulation)
Goblin Hordes x4 (more minions)
Massing Strength x2 (allows you to kill the RB)
35 cards total, but you can edit it to your needs. Some other good cards:
Orkish Camp prevents the Freeps from abusing Caras Galadhon, and also can allow a ton of minions to be played if you’ve got the twilight.
Orc Skulker is a cheap minion, but the fact that he’s a lurker means that if you have 4 copies of him in play you can assign the extras to non-RB companions, making the Ring-bearers skirmish have to be resolved first so that your minions don’t get killed before you can use Massing Strength.
Picket Denizen is a lurker (see above) and can help keep minions alive long enough to use Massing Strength.
Horror of Harad has toil 2 and so can be played fairly easily.
---
Hope this helps.

He wouldn’t be bad, especially since you can use the lurker strategy I mentioned with my decklist. But I think that the other minions would probably be a bit better in this deck.
But if you have the resources, I would just suggest playtesting the deck and figuring out what works best, especially in your meta.
