Topic: Uruk-hai



  
 TolkienWiki: Uruk-hai
In his book The Complete Tolkien Companion, J. Tyler equates "Uruk-hai" with "Uruks" (agreeing with Foster), and argues that it was Sauron--not Saruman--who first bred them as a superior strain of Orc, unleashing them on Osgiliath in TA 2475 (see "Appendix A" to LR).
In the Unfinished Tales (index) and in Letters #78 Tolkien uses the terms "Uruks" and "Uruk-hai" interchangeably.
However, there exists another - disputed - theory, according to which the term Uruk-hai denotes only those Uruks which were bred by Saruman in Isengard.

 Uruk-hai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Uruks also hated the Orcs, believing they were a lesser being and often rioting, eg in the tower of Cirith Ungol eat the hobbits they had captured, while the Uruks were protective.
The Uruks are also not seen to ever ride a mount, possibly due to size, weight and build (the Wargs which attacked the Rohan migration were ridden by trained Orcs).
The race of uruks, described as 'black orcs of great strength' first appeared about the year 2475 of the Third Age, when they conquered Ithilien and destroyed the city of Osgiliath.

Parts of the Uruk's head are a tad splotchy, but nothing too noticeable.
There are some splotches just below his waist - I'm not sure what these were meant to represent, but it doesn't look too bad.
This is Toy Biz, so you know you'll get some good articulation.

 Uruk/Uruk-hai and olog/olog-hai - www.ezboard.com
All we know, from the Silmarillion is that the Olog was created during the first age by morgoth and the olog-hai was created by Sauron (most likely during the second age around the time the uruk-hai was created).
If Hai means people then all trolls are Olog-Hai and all orcs are Uruk-Hai, but according to Tolkien the Uruk-Hai and the Olog-Hai were both improved versions of regular Orcs and Trolls.
We know that Uruk means orc and comes from a Quenya word (orca I think).

 Land of Shadow -- Lord of the Rings Gaming
Grishnakh and his troops moved towards the Uruk-hai but failed to reach them, while 8 Orcs (4 Archers) turned to Pippin and his Uruk-hai.
Grishnakh was angry and his blade needed more blood, and the Orcs again charged into the Uruk-hai (one Uruk-hai was surrounded by 7 Orcs).
Bloody fighting went on outside Fangorn, and as Grishnakh was about to lose his fight the Uruk-hai raised his sword, but then Grishnakh was inspired by the banner of the Great Eye and stabbed his wicked blade through the Uruk-hai.

 TolkienWiki: Uruk-hai
From all this it would appear that the terms Uruks and Uruk-hai are interchangeable and that Uruks is indeed just the anglicised form of Uruk-hai.
However, there exists another - disputed - theory, according to which the term Uruk-hai denotes only those Uruks which were bred by Saruman in Isengard.
"Uruks" are large intelligent orcs bred for heavy infantry and support roles, such as operating siege engines, or occupying watch towers on Mordor's frontiers.

 GW Online : The Lord of The Rings : Isengard : Isengard Tactics
Coming somewhere between Dunlendings and Uruk-hai in terms of resilience and strength, Orcs do not immediately appear to add anything of any real value to your Isengard force.
Alternatively, when you get to grips with your enemy, you can use the Dunlendings to neutralise any control zones that prevent your Uruk-hai from charging your real targets, such as enemy Heroes.
Instead, I've found the best way to use Dunlendings is to keep them in reserve and throw them into combat wherever an Uruk-hai needs backup or a Hero can be trapped.
