Orcy List

[The Royals]

As i have stated before i am a new member of the whfb scene and i decided to start an orcs &goblins army for the fun factor.

anyways i have completed a rough 2000 point list and i was wondering if you could give me some critique or advice on it.(or seperate army suggestions thats the beauty of Ebay )
Points model(s) number
91 Black Orc Big Boss 1

175 Orc Warboss on Boar 1

100 Orc Shaman lvl 2 1

103 Orc BSB 1

180 Orc Boyz(shields) 25

240 Orc Boyz (two choppas) 30

71 Spider Riders 5

71 Spider Riders 5

132(ish) Night Goblins 40(ish)

86 Night Goblins (bows) 20

70 spear chukkas 2

75 Rock Lobber 1

348 Black Orcs 20

205 Giant 1

Id like to note i actually am not a big fan of goblins and prefer me orcs. Also regarding the 3 artillary pieces im just a fan of it same goes for the black orcs.

you will want to fill all those rare and special slots.

cheap choices (pointwise, at least...) are a single troll or pump wagon and/or a small group of squig hoppers.

5-6 savage orcs on boars might be a good idea as well, if you include some additional wolfriders to screen them.

best choice in a competetive environment would perhaps be two more spear chuckas.

well for one . . .this should be in the army list section but someone will probably move it . . and u may want to get some magic weapons or if you did tell us what you get . . . cause without magic items u may get owned (well will probably get)

[The Royals]

Firstly i apologize for putting this in the wrong section, secondly yes that was my mistake i did not write down which magic items but my characters do have them and finaly i kinda ran dry on points so if u could tell me where i can drop guys to get more specials and rares let me know

thank you

For goblins 30 is fine, for orcs 25. I consider any more than that just points that run away when the unit flees. They hardly matter in battle, since most of the time a unit starts running long before it starts to loose all its rank bonues. And with 25/30 you still keep your units bigger than most opponents.
And that saves you enough points for, for example a pump wagon. If you can save a few more points, you might get a doom diver.

I don't think it is absolutely necessary to fill out all your specials and rares. This way you can swamp your enemy in numbers.
Best way now, is just to try out a bit. Maybe start with a few small games, while in the meantime increasing your army and buying that stuff which seems to be missing.

It is quite similar to my own list, with some alterations.

20 NG with bows = 86? Think you got your points mixed up, should be 60. Unless you put a fanatic in there which means your still too high on points.
I would recommend putting a Musician in at most, a standard will just lose you victory points in that group.
