Sauron Initiative/Burdens

The idea is to try and force the free peoples player to give you initiative or burdens.
Orc Pursuer
x4
Orc Chaser
x4
Orc Stalker
x4
Cheap guys who can get big with initiative.
Beseiging Pike x4
Flames Within
Helps when you have initiative.
Desperate Defense of the Ring
x4
The key card in the deck.
Orc Slaughterer
x4
Exert this guy to play
Desperate Defense of the Ring
.
Grishnakh x4
Gets cards or burdens.
Troll of Cirith Gorgor
x4
A strong, fierce, damage +1 for some killing power.
Grond, Hammer of the Underworld
Discarding free peoples things.
This deck can be nasty if you get
Desperate Defense of the Ring
early enough and the free peoples player has trouble discarding conditions. However it never fully seems to get the job done, so I'm wondering if anyone has ideas for this deck.

4x
Captured by the Ring

)
3x
Desperate Defense of the Ring
2x
Enduring Evil

4x
Mordor Fighter

7R286
)
2x
Orc Officer
(
7U302
)
2x
*Gothmog's Warg
(
10R89
)
Use
Mordor Fighter
and
Gorgoroth Stormer
with a threat and
Gothmog's Warg
and
The Ring is Mine!
to add some burdens.
Stinker
makes a fighting machine and pincushion, and if he makes it use
Heavy Burden
.
Shotgun Enquea
for crowd control and for when those burdens add up.
I have toyed with the idea of alternative Gollum's, possibly
Mad Thing
or
Plotting Deceiver
.
I also threw in
Orc Seeker
as it means more cards and potentially more
The Ring is Mine!

Thanks for the deck post. I really like it! How often does
Orc Officer
work? That's where I'd look to another minion. How good is
enduring evil
usually?

Enduring Evil
is what makes
Orc Officer
work... its a toss up whether it works but its devastating if it does.
If you play this Expanded, use Nelya and
Courtyard Parapet
- this is evil

I like to play Sauron corruption as well, but I do it like this:
Gorgoroth Attacker
+
Gorgoroth Officer
+
Gorgoroth Troop
. Control sites, play
Encirclement
and do the damage. I played McTono once, he made 10 twilight and I added 12 burdens...I had 4 sites and an
Ithil Stone
out.
