Okay, if you have big uns in your army, you can only have 1 unit of big uns unless you have Gorbad Ironclaw because its his special rule. Check the rulebook and codex.

Old codex and Storm of Chaos army list, the ORIGINAL only way to have multiple Big Unz units.

I'm thinking of using the new LoTR minis that are highland based for Orcs

Are they bulky as hell? If not, too small.

Their normal LoTR sized mini's. But they have Kilts! And some of them would make fine Black Orcs in that respect. Just need abit of creativitey  

[Eternity_Cursed]

You have to make them bulkier and taller if you want them to be black orcs.

Why? When the army would be a Scotish Highlander army, which would benifit from a normal sized human models.

Orcs (And Orks) are known for their arms being as thick as a mans torso, at least.

It's part of their physiology. An human-like Orc army would be crushed by the nearest Normal-Sized Orc army in a few moments.

Everyone dose understand I'm using the Orc rules to create a human army? Like how people use the CSM rules to make Prehearsy Legions, and the like?  

[No_Greater_Pain257]

yeah but they'd still be squashed by normal orcs who are buff as hell  

[knight of awsome]

so what about the size...go buy some green stuff and add some muscles on to some of the orks!!!

remmber yoda: "Size matters not"  

[No_Greater_Pain257]

true but they're attack points are huge especially Black orcs twisted  

[Shinobi_8745]

Biggest is da best!

That's what people mostly say about the orcs, but I beg the differ.

I game mainly ONLY with night goblins, I don't even use giants or trolls, on,y night goblins, snotlings, squig herders/hoppers, common goblins, goblin wolfriders and spider riders.

You just need to be a sneaky git and the enemy will break and flee... twisted

Strength lies in numbers (and especially cunning backstabbing plans).  

[Drachyench]

Night Goblins do have their role in my army. And surprisingly enough, it's not to carry Fanatics foward. A 40-Night Goblin unit with only Command is a decent way to slow down many enemy units, and if you can afford to add a character, all the better.

5+ Save everyone in the unit (Good for Orcs), Hero adds Combat Res from wounds, etc.

Though Orcs are your main bet if you intend to break any enemy unit in combat with something that isn't a special / rare choice (Not that there's anything wrong with Squigs. Squigs and Big 'Uns each tend to do a B. Orc's job better and for cheaper). Regular goblin shooting is also, to put in simple terms, crap due to anything non-War Machine having only a 16" range.
