I was wondering if I could get some advice concerning my list for the tournament. I have two questions at the moment:
- Which would be better to have; An Orc Big Boss with Martogs Best Basha +1WS,S,I) or a Black Orc Big Boss?
- Is it worth upgrading a mob of Boyz to be Big 'Uns? It costs 4 points per model so 80 points for the mob and increases their WS and S by 1.
Thanks in advance.

Oh and other people are free to hijack this thread for their own questions.

A Black Orc is better as he negates animosity on the unit he is with (often at the expense of a few Boyz though...) if you take a Black Orc you can give him heavy armour, shield and on a boar for a 2+ save, then I'd say Martog's and Kickin' Boots or Akkrit Axe and something else. If you take an Orc I would get Talisman of Protectyness (awesome item) for some defense. Probably not so important if he's mounted or is a Black Orc though as he'll have a good save anyway.

Nope. Makes the unit way to expensive, better to have more Boyz.

Da-Warpath is the best Orc and Goblin forum, check out some of the lists and tactics on there for inspiration, and post your list up there for them to critique.

Harry,

With all the running, fishing, gaming, music, forum spell checking and apparently good schooling, do you every have any time for rooting bitches and playing playstation?

That's what I thought.
Here are my Heroes at the moment.
- Black Orc Big Boss with Bigged's Kickin' Boots and Heavy Armour = 119
- Orc Big Boss with Gork's WAAAGH! Banner and Light Armour = 122
- Night Goblin Shaman Level 2 with Staff of Sneaky Stealing = 135

I'm not sure if Level 2 is a good investment....

I would make the BSB a Black Orc as well so he can use the Armed to Da Teef rule, so he can use a great weapon or additional choppa, the normal Orc can only use a single choppa.

The level 2 would probably be better with Itty Ring and a dispel scroll, that way you get a good bound spell to make your magic phase better (people almost always use dispel dice to stop Itty Ring, giving you more chance of getting your other spell/spells off), and a scroll means you still have a reasonable defense if that crucial spell comes along.
