Now I must protest against the notion that Ugluk is a bad leader. He would've escaped from the Rohirrim if those bumbling scouts of his hadn't let Eomer's scouts get away. He said it himself that they should've killed the scouts, so his failure to fend off Eomer's attack isn't because of his lack in leadership ablities, but more because his scouts' incompetence, being mere orcs instead of the fighting Uruk-Hai [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] .
Ugluk is quite a good leader, compared to Orc standards and he did a good job, in spite of rebellious Northern Orcs and a conniving Grishnakh.
