Gathburz |
'While it is the Nazgul in that black tower who command all of the forces here in Mirkwood, it is the uruk-commanders and generals who actually give the orders and organize the troops.
'There is a large encampment of these brutal Orcs deep within Gathburz, and if they can be rooted out, then the rest of the rabble will fall apart, leaving them as useless fodder upon the battlefield.
'I would bid you seek out the Black Uruks of Mirkwood and slay them. When you have succeeded, return to me.'
The Black Uruks are the masters of Gathburz, driving the Orcs and goblins into battle beneath their lashes. As along as they remain in command, it will be difficult to fully break the forces defending Dol Guldur. More importantly, if the uruk-leaders can be defeated, then the masters of the tower will find it considerably more difficult to prepare the upcoming army for their inevitable assault of Lothlorien.
Objective 1
Rodelleth has asked you to defeat the uruk-leaders in Gathburz to deplete the reserve of officers available to the Orc-forces in the battle for Mirkwood.
Objective 2
You should return to Rodelleth with tidings of your victory over the Black Uruks of Mirkwood.
