|
 |
Warg Riders are one of the rare examples of cavalry where the mount is more dangerous than the rider. Wargs, intelligent demonic wolves, have a long standing relationship with orcs and goblins, riding into battle together to bring terror to the free peoples of Middle-Earth. Not as fast as a horse in full gallop, Warg mounts nevertheless possess many advantages. They are much more dexterous and sure-footed and can traverse forests and difficult terrain with ease. Also, as predatory beasts, Wargs are formidable foes even without their riders. Their snarling visage instills paralyzing fear into the Wargs' enemies just before they sink their large dripping fangs into the victim's flesh. All but the most battle conditioned horses fear them and Wargs consider them nothing more than food. The Wargs' weaknesses lie in their fear of fire and relatively bulky frame that makes them easy targets for arrows and spears.
