Under the hot rays of the yellow globe and over the Mirror of Fire orcs tread from outpost to
outpost. Not seeking domination or new lands these Desert Orcs, fragments of The Storm Lord’s
army of long ago. Now these counterfeits roam the sands from the Ered Hamal to the Tûr Betark.
Alliances have been made with the demons from the deeps or the desert to disrupt trade and raid
villages of Greater Harad.

Orcish Marauders and other denizens will raid caravans and instill fear and doubt of all those that
has the Great Desert as a border. Lost of commerce and trade will grow greed and friction
between the Mannish leaders and communities.

Nazog is a bastard son of a Harad Princess banished to live in the desert to later form and lead an
orc host to allow a rival family to take control of Upper Khand. This Half-orc is the master of all
the orc tribes of the deserts. A merger with orcs from the Tûr Betark was made with the demon
Magurgoth. The fire-demon’s war chief Gorshûk is the leader of orcs from the Ered Ormal.
Araudagul is a half-troll from the Ered Hamal. His hold south of those mountains gives access to
the Chey, Upper Khand, and Chy.

This player will play powerful weapons and Orc factions combat at dwarf-holds and quick desert
movement, respectively. CvCC against wandering dwarves and fortifying multiple healing sites
is important for this player. Mount Arysis will be a Lair for the Warlord Nazog. An oasis will be
made into a shadow-hold after its repair. A Well of Ladnoca will then be dedicated.

The sites spread from Mardruak to Ered Hamal to Easter Spur of the Yellow Mountains. Factions
and allies aid in the movement through the desert regions. Adûnaphel and Akhôrahil will remain
on the borders of the desert and the renegades on the sea may be seen in Harshandatt. These
overts must remove the leaders of the Stiffbeards and thus aid to the Far Harad Free Peoples.

What I like about this deck are the specific resources to the Desert to form a true raiding party
with the prowess to attack dwarf-holds. Many site cards will be made for outposts.

Gorshuk was moved to this deck from Ren's deck so to use Waylaid, Wounded, and Orc-dragged.
Opponent is the Yellow Mountain Dwarf avatar in the Harad Division.
