General Strategy

Unfamiliar Territory is one of the basic [moria] pumps, with the others being Denizens Enraged and Drums in the Deep. Unfamiliar Territory is a useful and well-rounded pump, as archers do see play quite regularly, and some of them are quite weak, leaving opportunities to overwhelm them with this pump. Additionally, this pump can help out Moria Axe users, who may not be able to exert for their strength bonuses (Due to the archery). Pumps are not often used by [moria] users, so suddenly playing this can be a surprise for an unwitting opponent.
