 Dunland Information
Tolkien, Dunland was a place in north-west Middle-earth: the land of the Dunlendings.
The ancient ancestors of the Dunlendings lived upon either side of the Gwathló, "The River of Shadow", in the early Second Age: on first contact with the more advanced Númenóreans, they were described as fairly numerous and warlike, but they were forest dwellers, scattered communities without central leadership.
Despite this, the Hillfolk were able to slowly colonise Calenardhon, the nearby sparsely populated province of Gondor, as the Dúnedain slowly dwindled in numbers and power, and had already reclaimed all the land between the Adorn and Isen when Gondor decided to give Calenardhon to the numerous people of Éothéod in TA 2510.

Since Wulf's game text is also a response to a Dunland man winning a skirmish, you can immediately exert him to control a site.
The advantage of using Wulf as a mid-skirmish attacker is that you preserve his vitality - otherwise he's a sure target for aimed archery or being placed to skirmish a mounted companion.
The Dunland culture has a lot of cards that remind me of Magic cards - cards that circumvent or undermine some of the basic rules of the game.

These either became the Dunlendings, or amalgamated with hillmen already living there, who are reported to be related to the hillmen that dwelt to the south in the Ered Nimrais (RotK, p517), such as The Dead Men of Dunharrow.
The inabitants of Dunland are described as 'wild hillmen and herd folk' (TT p162); it has ben suggested that this might imply two cultural groups, but there seems little to recommend this theory: indeed, historical societies living in mountainous areas are inevitably postoralists due to the lack of arable land.
A WW (the sea, or the lower Gwathlo river) is allowed only to the early Woodsmen; the Anduin being classified as a Rv near Mirkwood, and the Ered Nimrais and Dunland being far from the sea.

Dunland is a country west of Isengard and north of Rohan, populated by Wild Men who used to live in Rohan but were driven out when it was given to the Rohirrim by one Gondor's Kings, I forget which.
