I don't see the use of heavy armour on the tyrant. For 20 pts give him the wyrdstone. ward save 5+.

I find that having a rhinox in 2000 pts is usefull.
Please someone explain to me how would you use a rhinox or unit on the table. What would be your stratagy ?

I dont think I effectivly use my rhinox... I put him between my two main fighting units and he charges where and when he can... But tends to just be cannon fodder.... icon_frown

I would love to have the Wyardstone shard but I literelly cannot squease it in.... icon_frown

Know your enemy!!  Orcs will have 3 ranks and outnumber on most units. They are strong in combat, some have frenzy and their magic can hurt. The experience I had with orcs, try flanking him, taking out his 3 rank combat resolution bonuses and hit with a unit in front. Or do like Napoleon, take 2 units and charge 1 unit to break the middle. Don't spread out your units, keep them togethers.
