This card is notable because it plays on a [Moria] minion, rather than an orc (Making the Balrog and [[lotr01165|The Cave Troll]] eligible bearers, but not the [[lotr02073|Watcher]] or its tentacles, which cannot bear possessions by their own text). As a result, Goblin Spear can generally help to add a few burdens, as it is usable by very large minions. However, the [Moria] culture lacks corruption options as a whole (with its main other options being Must Do Without Hope and Lost to the Goblins) so other weapons are usually preferable, as they usually have text more suited to the strategy of the player. This card, along with Hide and Seek, [[lotr01170|Fool of a Took!]] and [[lotr02071|Throw Yourself in Next Time]] are examples of [moria] cards with an anti-Hobbit theme. Also note that this card has synergy with Goblin Spearman (makes him '''damage +2'''). | This card is notable because it plays on a [Moria] minion, rather than an orc (Making the Balrog and [[lotr01165|The Cave Troll]] eligible bearers, but not the [[lotr02073|Watcher]] or its tentacles, which cannot bear possessions by their own text).
