That Grishnakh looks great! The swarming set 5
Orcs need to exert, so your Grishnakh would be helping Beatdown or Grind
Shadows, but not Swarm ones, that's good for balance.
Ambush should have been used in more cultures than only
, and
is probably the best bet for the reasons you point out. Other cards like
Mordor's Strength and
Strength Born of Fear would benefit fro that twilight too, which would also synergize with
Teeth of Mordor and
Orc Cutthroat. Bravo!
• Grishnákh's Scimitar
Who may bear it? Grishnakh alone, or any
Orc?
The regroup skill looks nice: a cheaper version of
Teeth of Mordor in case you have scarce twilight (or fear condition removal). Also, gives a good reason to pack
His Cruelty and Malice in a
Teeth of Mordor deck!
All that inspired me to make a cheaper Shagrat:
•Shagrat, Obedient Minion
Minion • Uruk-Hai
Strength 13 Vitality 3 Site 6
Damage +1.Each time a Free Peoples artifact is discarded (except if is due to its game text), you may place a
card from your discard pile on top of your draw deck.
"'It was Gorbag started it, trying to pinch that pretty shirt.'"Uncommon
Pretty situational, would trigger mostly when a companion is killed/discarded when bearing an artifact, or due to Grond, just to get a
card from discard back to the game next turn (that's Shagrat delivering the
Mithril Coat to Barad-dur, of course). But both would happen very seldom in a Limited format.
Other than that, is a str 13 uruk, or str 16 with an
Uruk Axe.
