Generic wounding Orc minion, the Orc Soldier, like Orc Scouting Band, Orc Hunters, 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. | Generic wounding Orc minion, the Orc Soldier, like Orc Scouting Band, Orc Hunters, and Orc War Band, contains the exert-to-wound skirmish special ability.
