Kings of War: Orc and Goblin list (not official)

Kings of War: Orc and Goblin list (not official)

Postby mattjgilbert » Sun Jan 16, 2011 8:31 pm

We've only played the one game of KoW so far but we loved it. So much so, I've had a stab at putting together an Orc and Goblin list so I can use another of my armies. This is right off the top of my head - unit stats, sizes, rules and point costs - non of it is playtested so might be way off. It's obviously biased toward my GW collection although I've not covered everything as I wanted it to fit on one page like the official lists :)

Feedback appreciated.

UPDATE 21/01/2011 - lists split into 2 and are at v0.2

Nothing - it only affects them being issued an order.

Will fix typo - thanks

Hello Matt

Observations

Ork Mob are listed as 25 models - is that right?

Black Orks - Should they not gain (Crushing Strength 1) as they have lots of 2H weapons etc?

Other than That looking good

So stupids will defend and fight back, just no orders, might be worth saying that (instead of GW style faq!)

Yes 25 - I did originally have a mob but cut it out due to space (all on one page!) so upped the mob to 25 from 20. Should I stick to 20?

I didn't want to give the Black orcs too much of a boost. I felt that nerve and defense reflected them better than crushing strength but could add it too/instead?

Will add the bit about fighting back normally estarriol.

I would add crushing strength - they are the only ork unit that gets it - up the costs though

I am not sure I understand why you have them at '25' - I would stick at 20 and do a Horde at 40 - however I would stick to the legacy of other 25mm base armies do they go 10/20/40 in size?

As for Stupid units defending etc - you only attack when you charge so no issues really unless i have misunderstood.

Agree on the stupid units.

I already said why I did 25! I killed the horde to save space so it all fitted on 1 page! :P

Cavalry have crushing strength. Black orcs shouldn't be too powerful I don't think. If I give them crushing strength it should be instead of something else, so dropping De back to 4+. Or.... maybe you choose before the game starts?

Actually I asked for th clarification on 'stupid' so that you knew what happened if you attacked something affected by it.
