User Commentary
Exceptionally good for any town that has a half decent archer unit. First priority as main hero for Tower.
Orrin is also good when using multiple ranged units from different towns. Master gremlins, marksmen, orc chieftains, magi... When using units from multiple towns, morale is not a problem, because Orrin has leadership. However, for mostly ranged army, offense is nearly useless, while armorer can be very handy.
