Must a player play a combat card in every battle?
The rulebook's battle steps and Saruman's ability state these cases directly.

Yes, once the battle reaches the card step. The exceptions are a character defeated or forced to retreat by a character ability before cards are played, and the abilities that let a player declare no cards are played (Sauron's classic Saruman, or Aragorn in the variant). Strength values do not decide this.
