Post subject:  800 point terror and hunter orc list

How is this for an army list? It's for a tournament where a lot of the scenarios will have objective markers to deal with.

To me it seems quite strong, it's main weakness being the small number of units.
Hopefully, I can prevent the enemy from actually doing too much killing given the fact that most of my force causes terror.


800 points. 35 units. 7 might. 18 death break point

Azog mounted on white warg
1 gundabad orc with spear shield and banner
11 hunter orcs (x2 two handed weapons)

Black numenorian marshal with shield and armoured horse
5 black numenorians
5 Morgul knights

Dark Marshal on foot
9 black numenorians
1 spectre


Comments and critisism welcome.

I think for an 800 pt army you have far too few units.

I agree with LordoftheBrownRing, you could take over three times as many goblins or so. But if you hide in terrain or get good defensive position, then its easy to pick the fights as you cause terror. Drop the banner, Dark Marshal is better, and give him horse or armoured one. Hope this helps. :)

I have improved it. I still have the banner as I want Azog and his hunters to blitz combat with re-rolls.

800 points. 53 units. 12 might. 27 death break point

Azog
1 gundabad orc with spear shield and banner
11 hunter orcs (x2 two handed weapons)

Dark Marshal on foot
8 black numenoreans

Black numenorean marshal with shield and armoured horse
8 black numenoreans

Grinnah
10 goblins

goblin captain
10 goblins

Consider this list, which uses orcs to add to numbers:

Azog on white warg
12 hunter orcs

Dark marshal on fell beast
6 morgul knights

Orc captain w/ shield
4 orc warrior w/ spear
4 black numenoreans
3 orc trackers

Orc captain w/ shield
4 black numenoreans
3 orc warrior w/ spear
3 orc trackers

You could drop an orc captain and a black numenorean for a shaman to get fury on the hunter orcs (and Azog) and regular orcs...
Also consider using the Dwimmerlaik in close proximity to Azog to essentially neutralize any heroes wanting to take him on - i would try to keep him out of combat and not on fell beast if you went that route, which would free up points to add orcs/ morannon orcs/ black numenoreans.

Here are two improved versions of the list. Both lists are very similar and designed to make combat difficult for the enemy whilst butchering them as well as having enough troops to survive and complete a range of objectives.

The main difference is that one list has a hunter orc captain, the other list has 4 of the black numenoreans turned into morgul knights.



800 points. 51 units. 13 might. 26 death break point.

The goblin king
11 goblins (2x two handed weapons)

Grinnah
11 goblins (2x two handed weapons)

Azog
6 hunter orcs (2x two handed weapons)
1 gundabad orc with spear

Hunter orc captain
5 hunter orcs (1x two handed weapon)

The dark marshal (Leader)
12 black numenorians

or…

800 points. 50 units. 11 might. 26 death break point.

The goblin king
11 goblins (2x two handed weapons)

Grinnah
11 goblins (2x two handed weapons)

Azog 175
11 hunter orcs (3x two handed weapons)
1 gundabad orc with spear and shield


The dark marshal (Leader)
8 black numenorians
4 Morgul knights.
