Ulaire Nelya, RiT x4
Ulaire Otsea, RiT x4
It Wants to Be Found x4
Gates of the Dead City x4
Morgul Skulker x4
Orc Bowman x4
Orc Patrol x2
Orc Cutthroat x2
Orc Taskmaster x4
This is all I have so far. It Wants to Be Found to add burdens, Gates of the Dead City throws out lots of exertions, Morgul Skulker recycles It wants to be Found and is then spotted for Orc Bowman.
-
Morgul Creeper x4 would be awesome.
-
Orc Patrol and Orc Cutthroat for the site number help? Maybe a copy or two of The Ring Is Mine!?

a couple copies of the witch king, lord of the nazgul might be nice, definitly the ring is mine, and you probably dont need all 4 copies of morgul skulker... only 3 is good
-
L3333: I'm not sure about the Witch-King because he has a lot of expensive, unique minions as it is. Plus, he is trying to save [2] for maneuver phase.
Also, I never noticed that I am in your signature. Badass.

Hmm. I guess I forgot. I haven't been spending so much time here recently.
Either way, very cool.

Edit: Wow. I noticed first in November which means that I have had more than two months' impact on the boards. Please excuse me while I find bellows.
/me pumps up his ego even more!

Well...it is 8+ now. Back around November it was 13+. So I have toned it down.

Are you going for corruption or wounding? If you're focusing on wounding, The Ring is Mine won't help because it doesn't trigger Gates of the Dead City.
If you're using Ulaire Otsea, RiT, you might want to throw in a couple of copies of Blade Tip, which will trigger GotDC (as well as dealing more wounds to other companions).
As for adding more [sauron] Orcs, you might want to go with the exert-to-wound guys to get more wounds out there and maybe pick off some exhausted companions.
The main problem I can see with this deck is twilight, between the Nazgul, the roaming penalties for [sauron] minions, IWtbF, and Orc Bowmen.
Further thoughts:
You might want to use Orc Cutthroat and Orc Taskmaster to help with the twilight. Enduring Evil is a good pump for this deck, and Above the Battlement can get back the Morgul Skulkers. If you want to throw in some cheap trackers, Under the Watching Eye would help, although that might be too much going on at once.
Other cards that at least deserve a mention include:
Legions of Morgul (for a domino effect when you're ready to make a kill)
Peril (saves twilight)
You Bring Great Evil (stops a companion from healing)
-
goblin runner is the ultimate card for extra twilight
-
Hate is indeed the way to go. Always a good surprise. I love decks which kill early. Maneuver is a period of time where not many decks perform well in, so it is a good phase to be nasty in!
-
Added:
Orc Patrol x2
Orc Cutthroat x2
Orc Taskmaster x4
For a total of 32 cards. I'm not trying to corrupt, only trying to add burdens to get exertions in the maneuver phase. Then use Orc Bowmen in the archery phase. Hate would be good, but I feel like my first hand would be something like 4 free peoples cards and Hate, GotDC, It Wants to Be Found, Orc Bowmen, and I wouldn't have minions for 2-3 sites.
-
true, i prefer hate though because your opponent doesn't see it coming, for example, if your opponent had stout and sturdy in hand with orc bowmen they would use it in maneuver to heal for archery, but if you have hate they might try to save it for skirmish, especially if one of your minions is orc soldiers or another exert to wound guy
-
I think Morgul Creeper would be much better than Orc Bowmen and these Sauron Minions. It could also allow you to add Ringwraith cards that add burden like Enquea, Toto.
