Angmar Orc Warriors are a type of Orc that resides in the old kingdom of the Witch-King, Angmar. They are exclusive to Angmar and the Angmar Mountains, where they spawn in small groups or individually.
These warriors are similar to standard Orcs, except they wear Morgul armour (without the helm), use Morgul blades and are slightly larger. They are much more powerful than a Mordor Orc as they deal more damage and have more health (they have 25 health while normal Orcs have 18). They are also very deadly as they give you the wither effect when they hit you, due to their Morgul blades. As with all Orcs, they can spawn riding Wargs. They can be hired from Angmar Orc chieftians both on foot and mounted.
Hiring
You can hire these Orcs on foot with 300 Angmar alignment and at a cost of 20 silver coins. Orc Warriors riding Wargs cost considerably more.
Advantages
- Fairly inexpensive unit considering its strength
- Better health and armour than normal Orcs
- Inflict the Wither effect on anything they hit
Disadvantages
- Relatively high alignment requirement
- No ranged attack
- Can only be hired from Angmar; thus, it may be hard to replace lost troops when travelling
