Orcs and Trolls - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One quick point to bear in mind. At the Gladden Fields, 2000 orcs (motivated by the proximity of the ring) had great difficulty in defeating 200 weary Dunedain. I would guess that any type of troll would, one on one, be more than a match for a mortal warrior. I think that a force of orcs would have to greatly outnumber a force of trolls before having a reasonable chance of victory.
