A little bit of a twist on an Evil Men Archery deck, this deck attempts to be better for the budget minded player.
--- end description ---
4x Archer of Harad
4x Desert Wind
3x Southron Murderer
1x Rapid Reload
3x The Mouth of Sauron, Messenger of Mordor
1x Countless Companies
3x Pavise
4x Elevated Fire
4x Howdah
3x Caravan From the South
2x Fletcher of Harad
4x Precision Targeting
2x Whistling Death
This is a bit different than my last deck, and the first thing you may notice is the absence of Mumak Rider and Mumak Commander, Giant among the swertings. Before you harass me about this, I will tell you why I took them out. Simply because I do not havve the cash to purchase those cards. I do however have easy access to some other cards which are Elevated Fire, Desert Wind and Precision Targeting.
The strategy is simple: Max out the tokens on Howdah and CftS, and then max out the archery with Desert Wind and kill companions quickly with Precision Targeting, or Rapid Reload/Whistling Death.
Suggestions?

Yeah, you may want to put in a few more minions. Fletcher of Harad would suffice for a while (by making all minions archers), but once the Fellowship drops below 6 companions your archery total won’t be as high.
Good deck overall, though. |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

Because not only is he an archer, he can easily discard a Freeps possession. |

Not  cards, and he doesn’t have a reliable source of that extra twilight. With the Southrons, there was ambush. But now, no ambush for . |

I think you probably only need one copy of Rapid Reload, since you can grab it with the Mouth of Sauron. Also, maybe you should drop a Caravan From the South, and maybe a couple copies of the archery events. I dunno though, I’m not an expert on archery.
Southron Murderer is a sweet minion to include, though.  |
