Strategy[edit]
Rumil, Elven Protector, and his brother Orophin, Lorien Bowmen are two important members of the stable of Site 6 allies. Each ally is an archer at his home site, and each offers archery phase support wounding. Rumil, Elven Protector focuses on pesky Orcs, like the exert-to-wound Orcs or single-vitality [Moria] Orcs, while Orophin, Lorien Bowmen attacks Uruk-Hai.
Constantly healed by Galadriel, Lady of Light, these site 6 allies are best with Lothlorien Woods and are featured in most "Super Friends" deck builds--those starting Arwen, Daughter of Elrond, Legolas, Greenleaf, and drawing a choice of Aragorn with The Prancing Pony. The Horn of Boromir
