ISENGARD ranks Siegecraft (Siege Engine), +1 rank Smithcraft (Weapon Repair) equiPment: Tools orC warg-riders The most reckless of Saruman’s Orcs serve as Warg-riders. Warg cavalry remain fast-moving scouts by day or night, and terrify troops in combat. Warg-riding is the most dangerous post in Saruman’s army. Some Orcs ride wolves instead of Wargs, but otherwise possess identical characteristics. aDvancementS: +2 StatiSticS: add edge Hardy, +1 rank Intimidate (Fear), +4 ranks Ride (Warg or Wolf ), +1 Courage equiPment: Leather armour, small shield, scimitar, Orc shortbow, Warg or wolf mount h a l f-orCs o f t h e w h i t e h a n d ‘There were battalions of Men, too… some… were horrible: man-high, but with goblin-faces, sallow, leering, squinteyed.’ — Merry, The Two Towers Half-orcs possess the wit and bearing of Men, and are given leadership over Saruman’s armies or other special duties. The packages that follow can be applied to any of the basic types of Half-orcs described on pages 81–2. half-orC Captains The generals of Saruman’s armies, these Half-orcs have the presence to command even the Uruk-hai. They make cunning warriors and brutal masters. aDvancementS: +10 StatiSticS: change starting order to warrior; additional order captain; change edge Furtive to Hardy; additional order abilities Battle-hardened, Favoured Weapon (Sword), Swift Strike, Hero’s Strength; add edges Command 2, Warwise 2, Weapon Mastery (Sword); change Appraise skill to Ride, change Conceal skill to Ranged Combat: Bows (Shortbow), change Guise skill to Observe (Spot), change Stealth skill to Inspire, +11 ranks Armed Combat: Blades (Sword), +1 rank Healing, +1 rank Inspire, +8 ranks Intimidate (Fear), +10 ranks Siegecraft (Unit Leadership) equiPment: Chainmail hauberk with plate, large shield, longsword, horn half-orC soldiers Half-orcs that cannot pass for Men serve as officers and elite soldiers. aDvancementS: +5 StatiSticS: change starting order to warrior; add order abilities Evasion, Favoured Weapon (Sword); change edge Furtive to Accurate; add edges 0 Dodge, Wakefulness, Warwise, Wary; add flaw Orc Ancestry; replace Appraise skill with +1 rank Ride (Horse) and +1 rank Run, replace Conceal skill with Siegecraft (Unit Leadership), replace Stealth skill with Intimidate, +6 ranks Armed Combat: Blades (Sword), +3 ranks Lore/ Realm: Isengard (Fortresses), +5 ranks Observe (Spot), +6 ranks Ranged Combat: Bows (Longbow); +1 Swiftness equiPment: Chainmail hauberk with plate, large shield, longsword d u n l e n d i n g s o f t h e w h i t e h a n d ‘Not in half a thousand years have they forgotten their grievance… . That old hatred Saruman has inflamed. [Dunlendings] are fierce folk when roused.’ — Gamling, The Two Towers Saruman has encouraged the Dunlendings’ ferocity, and stoked their hatred of Rohan and Gondor. Promises of treasure and terrible tales about the evil of the ‘straw heads’ have stirred the Hill-men into a frenzy. Apply the following packages to the bon olivier (order #42065) 8
Dunlending write-up on pages 289- 290 of the core rulebook. dunlending Chieftains Many clan chieftains were infamous before allying with Saruman, and most used his patronage to enslave or destroy their rivals. These chieftains hold power through their own prowess, and the plunder they give their henchmen. Thus, they are all too ready to go to war for Saruman. aDvancementS: +10 StatiSticS: initial order barbarian; additional order warrior; add order abilities Battle-hardened, Champion (+3 vs. Rohirrim), Hard March (Hills), Preferred Weapon (Battle Axe), Swift Strike, Warriorborn; additional edges Command 2, Hardy, Lion-hearted, Warwise, Woodcrafty; additional flaw Battlefury; +8 ranks Armed Combat: Axes (Battle Axe), +3 ranks Climb, +2 ranks Inspire (Rally), +3 ranks Observe (Spot), +4 ranks Ranged Combat: Bows (Shortbow), +3 ranks Run, +2 ranks Siegecraft (Tactics), +6 ranks Stealth (Sneak), +3 ranks Survival (Mountains), +4 ranks Track equiPment: Masterwork battle axe, large shield, chainmail corselet dunlending Clan elders Shamans and advisors to their clans, these were the first who Saruman plied with promises of lore and power, so that they would urge their chieftains to follow the White Hand. aDvancementS: +8 StatiSticS: change favoured attribute to Wits; additional order Loremaster; additional order abilities Expertise (Dunland), Secretive, Spellcasting 2 (Evoke Awe, Healing-spell, Victoryspell); additional edge Honey-tongued; +2 ranks Debate (Negotiate), +4 ranks Healing (Treat Wounds, Treat Illness), +5 ranks Insight, +3 ranks Lore/Race: Dunlendings (History), +4 ranks Lore/Region: Dunland (Clans), +3 ranks Lore: Spellcraft (Superstitions), +4 ranks Observe (Spot), +6 ranks Persuade (Oratory), +2 ranks Weather-sense; +4 Wits equiPment: Arcane talismans, colourful robes, facial tattoos dunlending hill-men skirmishers Boldest of the Hill-men, these warriors flocked to Saruman’s service, eager to kill forgoil. Though able in battle, they are too unruly to follow commands, and serve as skirmishers whom Saruman sets loose to burn and pillage at will. These troops require no modifications to the basic statistics on pages 289-290 of the core rulebook. u n i t s t at i st i C s ‘Upon their shields they bore a strange device: a small white hand in the centre of a black field; on the front of their iron helms was set an S-rune. . . .’ — The Two Towers The unit entries that follow describe the Host of Isengard according to the mass combat system presented in the Helm’s Deep sourcebook. The unit statistics are summarized on Table 4.1 Isengard Units, located on page 92. orC units Most of Saruman’s Orcs are Deeporcs (see page 79) from beneath Isengard, or Mountain-breed Orcs from the Misty Mountains. Their statistics and special abilities appear on Table 4.1. 1 The White Hand uruk-hai units Uruk-hai are fearless warriors, able to move at speed in daylight, fiercer than Orc or Man, and utterly devoted to the will of Saruman. Uruk-hai statistics and special abilities appear on Table 4.1. half-orC units Half-orcs are used sparingly as soldiers, being more typically pressed into service as engineers, and as the captains of other units. Half-orc unit statistics and special abilities appear on Table 4.1. dunlending units Inflamed by hatred and promised a chance to crush their racial enemies, Dunlendings in Saruman’s service remain an unruly mob, united by clan and family rather than organized into rank and division. Dunlending statistics and special abilities appear on Table 4.1. beast units Though Saruman’s wolves and Wargs serve as mounts for Orcs and Uruk-hai, he sees no harm in sending riderless beasts out to further assail his enemies. Beast unit statistics and special abilities appear on Table 4.1. n e w m a s s C o m b at o p t i o n s Saruman and his general Móg have created an army untried in the field. Despite this, cruel discipline and intimidation have shaped it into the one of the greatest armies in Middle-earth. The sections below describe several new tactics and manoeuvres this force has conceived for use in battle. bon olivier (order #42065) 8
