Hi All, looking for constructive opinions on this 600 pointer...

no cards
fight to the death

sorry I can't remember all the orc names


91 khan rava

76 summoner (1.0)
23 ** shaman
23 ** shaman
23 ** shaman
23 ** shaman

59 *** big (2.0) orc w/spears [has SA charge]
59 *** ditto
53 ** ditto standard version [w/o SA charge]

41 ** medium (2.0) orc w/spiked club [SA charge & T.B.]
41 ** ditto

44 *** horned hatchet krugg
44 *** hhk

Thanks!

Ub-khans *** and **

Violators ** (having charge and crushing blow)

I'd get rid of the HHK's, IMO they're too slow. I'd replace them and the violators with *Harka Orc. Reckless on 25 point figures is just good. I'd rework it to look like this:

Rava-91

Summoner-76
***Shaman-23
***Shaman-23
***Shaman-23
***Shaman-23

***Ub-Khan-59
***Ub-Khan-59

***War-Hatchet Krugg
***War-Hatchet Krugg

*Harka Orc-25
*Harka Orc-25
*Harka Orc-25
*Harka Orc-25

I'd push for a Rava/Summoner/Shaman backed swarm, actually. This way you have Rava to deal with whatever your swarm can't, well, swarm, and you swarm of Reckless orcs to deal with anything Rava's not at the moment. The Summoner Star does its thing, and brings back the two Kruggs, who are, IMO some of the best figures out there for their points.

Hope I've helped! If you don't have all that stuff, I think the idea can still work. Swarm + Rava = good things.

finally played it yesterday...

I ended up dropping the HHKs for:
**stalking skeleton 23
**stalking skeleton 23
*stalking skeleton 21
*stalking skeleton 21

worked well enough for a win against a good player (though his collection is still small)

No goblin love?

oh yeah, some gobs would have been the "right" thing to add -
but I was thinking "skeleton" is case things went bad and I had to resort to the Summoner's necromancy :nervous:

Norim, thank you
I could only dig up one of those Harkas - and I'll bring out the WHK's on another day

Out of curiousity, what were you playing against?

I was expecting him to play Dracs, because he did in the past and he has some of the better ones... but he brought out a big lot of orcs that he got from somewhere. I don't remember the rankings, 10 Orc Raider mounted(v1.0); 2 blood shaman healers; 1 chaos shaman with spellbook (only cast psych reflect).
