Kings of War Orclings Profile

Those are really funny minis. Hope to gather a lot of after buying Mantic Orcs.

I'm about to use following rules for this unit. This was not yet used in any battle. Any suggestions are welcome.

ORCLING BAND                        COST: 30 PTS
Type      Sp Me Ra De At Ne
Inf (2)    5 5+ 6+ 3+  6  1
Special: Small, Throwing Weapons

ORCLING WARBAND                     COST: 50 PTS
Type      Sp Me Ra De At Ne
Inf (4)    5 5+ 6+ 3+ 6  3
Special: Small, Throwing Weapons

ORCLING HORDE                       COST: 90 PTS
Type      Sp Me Ra De At Ne
Inf (8)    5 5+ 6+ 3+ 12 6
Special: Small, Throwing Weapons

NEW SPECIAL RULES

Small
Those creatures are small and dodgy. That makes them very uncomfortable targets.
Any shooting at this unit is made with -1 to hit. This unit does not block line of sight, and any unit without small special rule can shoot over it. Small units are not allowed to shoot over other small unit.


With Small and Throwing Weapons special rules this unit can be very annoying. In my imagination this unit is not good at fighting at all. Well, they can disturb with throwing weapons, but not to much. I wanted to keep this unit cheap but not very good at fighting and that's a result.

Please tell me what do you think about this unit in a comment section.

My Mantic Orc Army

Hi again,
Here's a list of my Mantic Orc Army. This army won't get any bigger (well maybe when Mantic realise new units like Orcs with bows or those Gore Chariots, then I'll definitely buy some).

MANTIC ORC ARMY
1 Krudger on Gore
1 Krudger
1 Flagger
1 Shaman

30 Orc Ax
30 Orc Ax

20 Orc GreatAx
20 Orc GreatAx

20 Orc MorAx
20 Orc MorAx

10 Gore Riders
10 Gore Riders

Lots of Orclings


I think this would be over 1600 points of army. With chariots and wagons it would be about 2000pts which is enough for me. It would be plenty of minis to paint. I'll buy this army at the end of this month.
