Seems like a very aggressive list. Given the low defence of a lot of your troops I'd say you could lose a few more troops to missile fire than you'd like, but I've found that the newest deployment rules have weakened archery's capabilities. Your cavalry shouldn't have many problems chasing down any threats.

That said, once in combat I think you'll do very well. High numbers and attacks will help a lot, and those Marauders will come in handy again.

My only concern is.... your face! Boom. Ouch!

Looks good SD, I think you and I will be the hunter orc generals of 2014

good list, but why the golblim captain?

agresive list indeed, but the problem is you will never get all your models in combat the same time, because you have no spears. (and if you do you will probaply be outnumbered) and with the low defence and fight it's easy to break trough your lines, the marauders and the wargs are good to suround your enemy, but don't forget that you need your models in combat, because hunter orcs are really good in a 1 vs 1 model fight, but aren't really good against a shieldwall.

One doesn't have to fight in a shield wall. There are ways and means to undo a shield wall....

How about a Mordor Orc Shaman for Channeled Fury?

Sounds like a severe case of Charge of the Warg Brigade?

Are you guys at East Grinstead able to field this lot? I can chuck in Narzug, Yazneg and four Hunter Orcs on Fell Wargs if that helps?

It could be fun taking them on with a list of Dwarves from Thorin's Company and Army of Thror. Now that would be a challenge!

People like fury too much imo.
I prefere furry

Goblin captain because he is cheap.

If I wanted fury I'd play my mordor list

Yes, I have 3/4 of this. Only need 12 hunter orcs and the wargs / marauders which I'm going to convert.

You sure about that? :lol:

Anyways, I like the list! I'd be cautious to face it, but I like the look of it!

That looks a very strong list, though a Shaman (fury on Bolg) would be great instead of banner. Good luck

I agree with sam really, a banner has much greater effect here,
1VP "on to the death"
Winning fights means you are less likely to die.
He has high Courage heroes who can pass break tests
It is way less boring to field a banner!

fury = yawn

All my other evil armies use fury so this one will not have it.

@bolg: Why would this list charge headfirst into a shield wall? that is a stupid idea :lol:

aim for the flank and all that jazz. The wild wargs are in the list for a reason
