Your scouts can only be 1/3 bows since they are from a different faction. Just use trackers if you have them. If not mordor uruks with bow or regular orcs with bow and spear. |

If you are armed with a bow you do not get the +1 to defence for carrying a shield, it would be best to drop the shields and spend 10 points elsewhere. I would recommend switching the uruk scouts to orc trackers (as stated by Jobu you can't have them 100% bow as they are a different faction) and then with the extra points from that, add a few more morannon orcs with spear and shield. |
