Strategy

The site 8 choice for [Moria], [Sauron], and [Isengard] Orc strategies, Shores of Nen Hithoel can stand between your opponent and a double move to site 9 by preventing the move. Unlike later cards such as Ruined Capitol, the site leaves no opportunity for a double move (with move limit modifiers). It also has the highest shadow number of all the site 8 versions, making it useful for some non-orc decks as well. Its potency is increased in games of 3 or more players, as the various orc players can each contribute to the total 5 orcs. Although this site can make or break a game, it can also be a double-edged sword, as any player using orcs can make use of it.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Strong Versus...

  • The only site 8 to cost [9] in any format.
  • Prevents multiple move to site 9 with 5 Orcs spotted

Weak Versus...

  • While its text does not work naturally with some shadow strategies, the [9] added by the site is useful for any shadow.
