Any ideas what to do with him? I got one a while back and want to give it a go. Mainly I'm thinking on should I use the Wardrummer with him? The advantages are obvious, an effective +8 to morale saves, and penalties to the enemy if needed be, but the problem is that if I use it I dont have room for as many beaters.

I'm also wondering what might be a good choice of beaters to use with him. Since Oboulds ComFX relies on hitting, units with a low attack bonus seems like a bad idea. So I guess Ravagers, Grimlock Barbs and such are out.

I was thinking of a build like this;

King Obould, 65p
Red Samurai x2, 40p each.
Orc Wardrummer, 19p
Quaggoth Slave x3, 10p each.
Filler/VP grapper.

This would get me 3 large beaters (Obould + samurai, 3 secondary beaters, good saves and full 8 activations. The attack bonuses are generally high enough to get the Oboulds ComXF working when needed. 1 turn with Obould, Samurais and a few Quaggoths attacking can be very destructive. Any suggestions how to possibly improve?

Well if you want to use King Obould I would take advantage of his commander effect as much as possible. So for me this means packing in as many hard hitters as possible. I think I would forget the Wardrummer and rely on his commander effect to destroy Key pieces fast, which is a risk, but I think the best option.

I like

King Obould
Eye of Gruumsh
2 x Orc champion
+ 13 points of filler

Or King Obould
2 X Orc Champ
Red Samurai

+17 points of filler

I think the best way to use Obould is having a lot of powerful hitters that can drop a dangerous mini fast.


I do like your warband idea as well, it will stay on the board better but may not deliver the punch nescessary to eliminate a key mini before your opponent can retaliate.

Unfortunately, you can't use the Eye in the same band as Obould due to the Domineering quality... [:(]

Poor student looking for minis =D
