Helloes
The idea might be a bit wacky to work and I'm sure other has thought of it before, which is why I'm asking!
Have any of you had any luck with an army build up with mulitiply units with vanguard to get up and close, harassing your opponent and forcing their hand very early on? As it's very low on deployments I take it your opponent will deploy as if the Ogre player is getting first turn and if it's possible without taking hard hits, you give your opponent the first turn, getting that sweet turn 1 charge with your vanguards
I've made a list which focus on hunters in "big enough" sabretusk units, having both vanguard and swiftstride is pretty cool. Also made it with a Tyrant instead of Slaughtermaster, that's mostly for fun, I'm sure it's possible to drop it for a Slaughtermaster (then you could also drop the Firebelly, he is there mostly for magic defence)
