I'll add in a fleeing mechanism.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lómë) 03:34, May 31, 2017 (UTC) But not all Ruffians in Eriador were from Isengard, and certainly few at the time of the mod. Those came up the Greenway a year before the Hobbits returned to the Shire, and before then ruffians would have been few in number, and not Isengarders for the most part, except a handful of his spies. I was always under the impression that the ones who harassed Bree and Hobbiton were, for the most part, men or Orc-men in the service of Isengard, with a few of them being bandits from the area.

@Lego: Shagrat and Gorbag both spoke rebelliously, and if two Uruks, so close to the Eye, could do so, it makes sense that other Orcs would rebel or join bands acting individually of the Dark Lord.

@Gorbag: I'll add some form of deserter camp.
