= General Strategy =

Generic wounding Orc minion, the Orc Hunters, like Orc Soldier, Orc Scouting Band, and Orc War Band, contains the exert-to-wound skirmish special ability. These minions play best in the "Sauron Grind" Shadow, with support area conditions like Under the Watching Eye and Orc Bowmen causing uncomfortable assignment match-ups. The skirmish special ability allows for the Shadow player to place a wound on a free peoples character even when matched against a much stronger companion, and saves the Shadow player deck space, as the game text is effectively a built-in Mordor's Strength.

As with most Sauron minions, the high site number and roaming penalty can be cost-restrictive, although [sauron] trackers such as Orc Scouting Band can be used to reduce the roaming penalty for further Sauron Orcs played.

With skirmish phase game text, Orc Hunters and its fellow exert-to-wound minions can be countered by pre-skirmish wounding such as Quick As May Be or Legolas, Greenleaf; however, Mordor grind support offers powerful pre-skirmish wounding cards such as Hate.

In the Movie Block format, Gothmog's Warg can increase the vitality of these exert-to-wound minions, making assignment match-ups even more difficult for the Free Peoples player.

= Strengths and Weaknesses =

=== Strong Versus... ===

* Natural fit in [Sauron] Grind deck
* Best played with site-reducing Battle of Helms Deep Expansion Orcs, such as Grishnakh, Orc Captain and Orc Patrol
* Exhausted companions, even those with higher base strengths

=== Weak Versus... ===

* Armor or wound prevention
* [Rohan] Mounts and Shadowfax
* Pre-skirmish wounding
* Roaming punishments
