General Strategy
A generic and simple Orc, Goblin Marksman is a[3] twilight archer minion. A natural fit in a[Moria] archery deck, Goblin Marksman lacks the vitality and additional game text found on future[3] twilight archer minions (Uruk Crossbowman, Southron Archer, or Southron Bowman) in exchange for a base 7 strength, uncommonly high for a[Moria] Orc. This can be boosted further by the presence of Archer Commander, making Goblin Marksman quite a strong orc if he bears a hand weapon as well.
The similar Goblin Bowman (!strength 4, twilight cost[2]) was released in the Mines of Moria expansion, alongside other Moria archers (Archer Commander, Moria Archery Troop).
Comparing Goblin Marksman to post-Shadows cards like Archer of Harad or Southron Murderer is a good example of the "power creep" in later sets.
