This is more of a reply to the suggestion 'Uruk Debuff' by Dragonovith, which can be read here. It covers some more indepth changes that would make the Uruk-hai weaker while not leaving a power gap, and making the Isengard players satisfied lore-wise

Orcs
All Orcs are have 2 health less, and all Orcs have chances to wear random helmets along with missing pieces or armor (5%) Also, so that it would fit with my previous suggestion on varying orc stats, their health should be adjusted accordingly

Orcs are made cheaper by 15 silver

Uruk-hai
Uruk-hai now have 20 health (18 health uncommonly, and 22 health rarely), but keep their armor, and have an advantage when fighting against Dwarves  or shorter units (either strength or resistance, or weakness on the other side) they are now slightly shorter than men.

They are made cheaper by 15 silver

Uruk-hai berserkers stay mostly the same, but instead of wearing a chestplate and leggings, they have permanent Speed I, Resistance I and strength I. (Stacks with dwarven buff)

Higher align requirement, but cheaper price

Gundabad Uruks spawn more rarely, and have a higher align cost but are made cheaper

Black Uruk spawn much more rarely, and their price is increased.

Goblinmen / Half-orcs
Goblinmen Handaxes are added, wielding large battleaxes, they have 26 health and replace the current Uruk-hai.

Same cost as current Uruk-hai,

Crossbowers are moved over to Goblinmen, and Uruks are given a scout unit

Dunlendings
Dunlendings have a chance to spawn with pieces of Uruk armor (never helmets, 5%) If Dunlending armor is surrounded with 2 Uruk ingots on an Uruk crafting table, it is buffed to 15 armor protection, and is given a more orcish look.

Dunlending Bannerbearers wield this armor.

Ruffians
Ruffians are cheap, militia-style units that come in varying sizes and varying healths, being made up of men, hobbits, orcs and half-orcs.

They would look nearly identical to bandits, and have a 5% chance to wield uruk / dunlending uruk armor, a 15% chance to wield chain, and 40% chance to wear warg fur.

They would cost the same as Isengard Snagae.

Hiring
Goblinmen / Half-orc are hired from an Goblinman / Half-orc Chieftain

Ruffians are hired from a Ruffian Captain

Rest are hired from Uruk Chieftain
