| When I've played CE before I've used Slaadi or Demons, because I figure, if your going to play Chaotic and Evil, do it right. This is my first shot at a non-outsider based CE band. This is supposed to be a theme band that would be like something a band of adventurers would face defending a small village.
200 pt. 8 activations Orc Druid Orc Wardrummer Orc Warrior Orc Savage Oger Ravager Hyena Winter Wolf Hill Giant Barbarian
Demerits-Commander 2. Only two real hitters. Poor commander synergy.
Merits- Wardrummer offsets the effect of commander two on morale saves. Quite a bit of hurt in a short amount of time with the Hill Giant and the snakes swiftness spells.
I know that I could have swapped out the Winter Wolf for a Tiefling, but I wanted the cone, besides I thought that something in the warband should benefit from the commander effect. Hyena is a tile grabber, probably should have made it a wolf and downgraded the Orc Savage to an Orc Skeleton for theme's sake...still might. | | | |

| | I think this warband is very easy to beat because you only have to kill the orc druid who is your unique commander.I dislike the hill giant because you can replace him for orc champion and eye gruumsh and improved your whole warband.The orc druid is always good idea for his snakes and as a second commander and the wardrummer is a must.The winter wolf,orc savage and hyena are useless so remove them. As a grabbe tiler you,ll have orc warriors or abyssal maws or quaggots.And the ogre ravager....well now is less useful but....If you love him.... | | LOVE THIS GIRL | |

| Personally I'd drop the Winter Wolf and fill it in with either the likes of another well priced beater or just add in 3 Quaggoth Slaves instead of the other filler. The Orc Druid can snakes swift the HGB as much as possible so he could be a brutal threat. It's not bad as design goes there.

| | Main problem people have voiced about the Ogre Ravager is that it is ineffective against Higher AC opponents. Snakes Swiftness won't help if you can't hit. And I agree that a 2nd commander couldn't hurt. | | Champion of all things Athasian "Don't sing it - Bring it!" | |

| | Don't really understand the Winter Wolf. Why not put in a tiefling captain from harbinger commander 4 and criticals on 19-20's for your big boys. Nice idea with the hyena for victory points. | | | |
