Bad Dice Daily - Alternative Ogre List

original thread ↗

Ben Curry takes a look at an alternative Ogre Kingdoms army list in the latest episode of the Bad Dice Daily podcast:



"Its been a hot topic recently, what can you do to make Ogre Kingdoms fun.  I write a list that I think is fun to play, should be fun to face, still has a few tricks and nasty surprises but is by no means the Iron blaster + Mournfang cookie cutter list that is the scourge of the tournament scent at the moment.

Tyrant, Great Weapon, Heavy Armour, Trickster’s Helm, Talisman of Endurance, The Other Trickster’s Shard
Hunter on Stonehorn
Firebelly, Hellheart
9 Ironguts, Full Command Lookout Gnoblar, Banner of Swiftness
5 Ogres, Extra Hand Weapon,  Bellower
7 Maneaters, Standard Bearer, Extra Hand Weapon, Dragonhide Banner
Stonehorn
Stonehorn"
Just catching up with Bad Dice Daily and noticed there was a follow-up to this episode released a few days ago: http://baddice.co.uk/daily95/

Tom Mawdsley joins me on today’s episodes to do an Ogre Kingdoms follow up from episode 60 where I talked about the sort of Ogre list that I would take to try and make them more fun, Tom took this list and tweeked it to fit his playstyle but tried to keep the spirit of the list.

When I talked about the sort of Ogre army I thought would be fun to play I tried to steer away from the Mournfang and Ironblasters that make an appearance in every army but I still went with a few good combos.  The biggest departure from the norm, other than the Stonehorns, was the fact that I included a Tyrant to lead the army instead of a Slaughtermaster.  I rounded off the list with 3 Stonehorns and that was the theme that Tom wanted to capture when writing his own Ogre army
