===== General Strategy =====

A key cog in the [Sauron] grind strategy, Orc Bowmen is a support area constant that adds 1 to the minion archery total with a spotted [Sauron] Orc. The !cost of the condition is steep at [3] !twilight, the benefit is outstanding as even the smallest Orc Ambusher adds a useful wound. A support area filled with Under the Watching Eye and Orc Bowmen can dish out eight wound tokens via four exertions and four wounds each move, making the threat of Sauron nothing to scoff at. Another grind linchpin, Hate can finish off exhausted companions.

Before the release of alternate Ring-Bearers, Frodo served as the only ring-bearer and absorbed a lot of these tokens; I'd Make You Squeak can generate additional twilight in a [Sauron] grind deck. Additionally, the Battle of Helm's Deep expansion released Grishnakh, Orc Captain, Orc Cutthroat, and Orc Patrol which largely reduced the site number of [Sauron] minions. Fires Raged Unchecked is another option in a deck that generates threats.

Sauron Grind is incredibly susceptible to condition discarding. Grown Suddenly Tall and Sleep, Caradhras largely dissolve the strategy, though Dead Marshes can play discarded [Sauron] conditions.
