Orc Culture

Heck, if your using Gothmog to play a minion during the regroup phase play Orc Miscreant!  Of course you'll need 5 twilight, but that is nothing the orc hammer, mordor scimitar, and demoralized can't handle.

demoralized is banned in standard...

miscreant doesn't make my corruption, he usually get hammered in any skirmish phase (no wargs either), I also don't like the to play spot a minion...but maybe with gothmogs 1x miscreant might be worth putting in if room.

orc hammer is no good in corruption deck, you want to win your fights to add burdens with retribution or if choked use underlings and bound to its fate coz they are cheap and can add burdens during shadow phase, 2 twilite for 1 strength is too expensive imo.

mocking goblin with mordor scimitar or orc spear and retribution is your best bet, supported with bound to its fate and isengard underling with abiding evil.

What convinces the other player not to discard an event?  That was the problem I can't seem to get over.  The crew I play with always discards cards instead of adding the burden

[macheteman]

yeah, but when they don't have any events left in hand...

[jdizzy001]

Hasn't happened in our games.  We use a lot of events.

[macheteman]

evidently.

[Vroengard]

but macheteman is right, its worth to try, happens easily, that all events are played though. The effect is great, for just one twilight, I think

[ephen]

The event is usually a pump too, which means better chance of winning and adding burdens with  retribution.

i agree.  Well thought out and executed with style

It is a fun deck to play with, only 30 cards... It is probably best paired with some sort of choke eg. smeagol solo or dwarves.

Does anyone know if Gothmog, Morgul Leader has had any errata?

If he has been errated (like my version of sda thinks) it says that minions played in the regroup phase (using his text)  come into play exhausted..?
If this is true than orc miscreant is useless and would not be in the deck.



deck changed...miscrerant  cut due to errata.

i n my corruption deck I put in forced march to make them move again since they're out of events

[Vroengard]

yap, one copy is no mistake, just one slot, but if you draw it....ouchh. can get very ugly with it, combined with an still living gothmog who recrutes the good ol' orcses.... heavy

[jdizzy001]

That is a pretty cool looking deck.  I like the forced march too.  I can't believe you can do so much with these orcs.  I am impressed

great idea! 

[Disco Stu]

gothmog has an erratum. orcs played by him in the regroup phase come into play exhausted. this has been ruled for orc miscreant and orkish veteran.
i played the orcs with weapons in amsterdam. use retribution for some burdens and orc artisan, orc spear, scavenging goblins, mordor aggressor etc. my opponents didn´t have quite the fun i had 

[Gil-Estel]

Seconded, the Gothmog part that is.
