My 2500pt Ogre army!
Looks something like this..
2471
LORDS:
Lv.4 Slaughtermaster (IF, Hellheart, AoD) = 388
Gut Magic
HEROES:
Bruiser (BSB, GW, 2+, Ironcurse) = 191
Lv.1 Firebelly (GW, Scroll) = 154
CORE:
9x Ogres (FC, IF) = 323
6x Ironguts (FC, Discipline) = 308
SPECIAL:
4x Mournfang (FC, HA/IF, Dragonhide) = 360
4x Leadbelchers = 172
4x Leadbelchers = 172
Sabretusk = 21
Sabretusk = 21
Sabretusk = 21
RARE:
Ironblaster = 170
Ironblaster = 170
The Lv.4 SM has 4+ armor, 6+ parry and 4+ ward. He also carries the Hellheart to mess with enemy wizards. I guess it goes without saying that he's been officially approved to carry armor because the designers failed to catch it. That's perfectly fine with me! I just wish all Ogres could parry with Ironfists regardless of what weapon they're carrying. Visually, that would make more sense to me because of the way Ironfists look. Anywho, the rest of the heroes look pretty standard. BSB enjoys a 2+ save and carries a Great Weapon, the Firebelly carries a scroll and Great Weapon himself. All 3 of those heroes will sit comfortably in the 6 Irongut unit for a total of 2x 3x3 blocks to make up the main belly force.
The Special slots are also pretty standard: 3x Sabretuks as better Eagles, 4x Mournfangs with all the bells and whistles, and 2 units of 4x Leadbelchers so I can shoot things to death. I was thinking maybe cutting the squad down to 6x Leadbelchers and then buffing up either the Ironguts or Bulls, what do you guys think?
Lastly, I'm taking 2x Ironblasters because I think shooting big ass S10 cannons is ridiculous. Plus, they're not bad in combat and they're really tough to kill!
Other things I might do is as follows:
SM takes Glittering Scales and Fencer Blades to make him almost unhittable in combat.
I find room for another Bruiser with 4+ ward for another beatstick.
I drop some Leadbelchers and maybe a Ironblaster for more Core units.
Is it me or is this army really small? I normally deploy 100+ elf models to the table and this is looking quite sad! I guess I should be counting wounds and not actual models? It just looks really funny to me lol.
