Here’s a Broad-bladed Sword, but for  Orcs, and as an armor! There’s some potential for making a really beefy minion here, but I doubt a deck that combo-ish would produce very good results.
Overall this looks to me like a pretty average card, not great but not too shabby either. It might be necessary as archery protection for a skirmish-wounding Warg deck. |

| This looks like a solid Warg card, especially if we’ll get some recursion. |

If you can get him played on a guy on a warg, he’s fierce and strength + 2. (plus the warg’s bonus) and has a slot left for Mordor Scimitar.
Not taking wounds is helpful since you’ll run a lot of exerting orcs with the new gear. (and wargs) |

Here’s a combo:
Scouting Orc + Vicious Warg + Mordor Scimitar + Rider’s Gear
Total: 9 twilight for a fierce, 17 strength, 4 vitality minion who can’t take wounds (except during the skirmish phase), can exert to wound the companion he is skirmishing, and exerts the companion he’s skirmishing at the start of his skirmish. |

| That’s a beast!! (pun intended) I think these wargs are going to be incredibly powerful... |
