 • Ancient Chieftain, Leader of the Goblin Horde 
Minion • Orc
Strength: 10
Vitality: 2
Site: 4
Lurker.
While the fellowship is at an underground site, each Orc gains hunter 1 (or hunter 2 if that site is also a battleground).
Skirmish: If at a mountain or underground site, exert Ancient Chieftain to wound a companion it is skirmishing (and add a burden if that companion is the Ring-bearer).
“Diving under Aragorn’s blow with the speed of a striking snake he charged into the Company and thrust with his spear straight at Frodo.”
I would cut his strength to 9.
• Archer Commander, Overseer of Ambushes
Minion • Orc
Strength: 8
Vitality: 2
Site: 4
Archer. Hunter 1.
Each other archer gains hunter 2.
Shadow: Exert Archer Commander to play a archer from your draw deck.
Had it not been for the fellowship having a certain mithril-coat and a very skilled archer of their own, the goblin archers may have finished Frodo and his companions before they ever reached the Bridge of Khazad-dûm.
nice! kinda overshadows the other one though... |

Okay, but I’m giving him a hunter 1 to compensate.

A bit, though hunter companions really shut him down. Still, though, think I should change it to hunter 1 (or strength +1) instead? |

I now think he’s far too complicated. I’d take out the second set of brackets (not quite sure what it’s doing there anyway, unless you have a strategy going) and take out his hunter bonus or raise his cost. Orc War Band is still a hell of a lot worse than this guy.

Should definitely be hunter 1, and take out his original bonus changing the text to ’Each archer...’ He rocks though!

I’d make one of the abilities work at a battleground, and the other work at an underground. But that’s mostly a personal preference. Might make it strength 6 or 7.

Strength 8 or 9 woudln’t be overpowered, look at some of the  cards that do the same. |

I’d make the second ability an underground one.

A bit simple, but not bad.

Should either cut the cost or up the strength. I’d suggest the strength, just so you could have a big, strong archer, but that’s just me.

What a classic! You could bring up it’s strength or slap on a hunter bonus.
