All Comers 2.4K Greenskins

Fantasy Army: BoC

Hi Guys!

Criticisms / Comments / Suggestions gratefully received on the following 2.4K All-comers Greenskin list. It's been doing really well recently, but I like to change things up from time to time, so I'm open to modifying it a bit. The only part I'm unwilling to compromise on is having a Warboss on Wyvern. However, his equipment is up for grabs.

Lords

Orc Warboss on Wyvern, Enchanted Shield, Talisman of Preservation

Savage Orc Great Shaman, Level 4, Lucky Shrunken Head (Goes with Savage Orcs)


Heroes

Night Goblin Shaman, Level 2, Dispel Scroll, Scroll of Shielding (Goes alone, or in NG Archers)

Night Goblin BSB, Light Armour, Bad Moon Banner (Goes in NG Spears)

Night Goblin Big Boss, Additional Hand Weapon, Ruby Squig of Ruin (Goes in NG Spears)

Savage Orc Big Boss, Axe of Striking (Goes in SO)

Black Orc Big Boss, Gold Sigil Sword, Ironcurse Icon (Goes in Blorcs)


Core

20 Savage Orc Big 'Uns, Command, Additional Hand Weapons

37 Night Goblin Spears, Command, 3 Fanatics

20 Night Goblin Archers, Command, 3 Fanatics

5 Wolf Riders, Short Bows


Special

40 Black Orcs, Command

Spear Chukka


Rare

Doom Diver


Total: 2,398


You may begin laughing now.

Could you swap the 20 and 40 for 30 and 30 savage orcs and black orcs?

Night Goblin BSB, Light Armour, Bad Moon Banner (Goes in NG Spears) - This banner is not much different than the night shroud. Your essentially paying 50 pts for stubborn. Reform your NG's into a bus after the fanatics are released and gain steadfast that way.

Night Goblin Big Boss, Additional Hand Weapon, Ruby Squig of Ruin (Goes in NG Spears) - I don't understand this. Scrap this guy and spend elsewhere.

Savage Orc Big Boss, Axe of Striking (Goes in SO) - This guy who no longer gets the GW or Extra Hand Weapon option due to a magic weapon that makes him still hit on 3's on most things out there? Scrap him and get 8 more savage orc big'guns.

Black Orc Big Boss, Gold Sigil Sword, Ironcurse Icon (Goes in Blorcs) - Don't give BO's magic weapons. You waste Armed to da Teef. Make this guy your bsb and don't put him in a unit that doesn't even test for animosity. Putting a BO character in a BO unit is a waste (Gorbad excluded). Throw him in your savage orcs to quell animosity.

Spear Chukka - Scrap and add 3 more SO bigguns.

Orc Warboss on Wyvern, Enchanted Shield, Talisman of Preservation - I'm pretty sure you've saved enough points now to either make this guy a Black Orc on a Wyvern (same kit) or at least give the standard Orc Warboss a magic weapon.

Night Shroud limits where I can deploy my Shaman. Doing it this way means I essentially get the spell effects all the time, and my LV4 can use different spells that are more useful, I.E. GotSG, Itchy Nuisance, etc.

Night Goblin Big Boss, Additional Hand Weapon, Ruby Squig of Ruin (Goes in NG Spears) - I don't understand this. Scrap this guy and spend elsewhere.

This guy gives me some firepower in an army low on magic missiles and other shooty goodness.

There are a few VC players locally. Magic Weapons are very useful for this reason.

Black Orc Big Boss, Gold Sigil Sword, Ironcurse Icon (Goes in Blorcs) - Don't give BO's magic weapons. You waste Armed to da Teef. Make this guy your bsb and don't put him in a unit that doesn't even test for animosity. Putting a BO character in a BO unit is a waste (Gorbad excluded).

True, but striking first is more important. With this, I can splat enemy characters before they attack

Spear Chukka - Scrap and add 3 more SO bigguns.

Spear Chukkas are decent multi-purpose machines, and cheap.

Orc Warboss on Wyvern, Enchanted Shield, Talisman of Preservation - I'm pretty sure you've saved enough points now to either make this guy a Black Orc on a Wyvern (same kit) or at least give the standard Orc Warboss a magic weapon.

Thanks for your time, though.
