ok people I'm starting an orc goblin army and I want to hear what you guys think of

Trolls River and stone your likes about them your dislikes expirince funny storys, amazing results anything

and the same for Goblins I want to know what you guys like about them tactics good ways to use them the do's and don't's of them and the trolls if you guys don't mind, a great meating of the empty "eads blaugh blaugh blaugh blaugh

well I played an empire gunline army once and let's say that it wasn't pretty. Imagine a unit of stone trolls that fails it's stupidity test (it was 2'' away from my general so yes I missed a 10...) That blunders within short range of a hellblaster. oh well I mean he can't get off that many shots now can he it'll probably blow up. He then informs me that he has an engineer with the crew and proceeds to inflict 24 wounds on my poor trolls and of course I fail every single regeneration roll yes all 24 of them...That wasn't a good day. As for gobbos I find that they,re a usefull meat shield or they vanish in a puff of red mist if hit by a cannon (see the aforementioned gun line army (3 cannons in a 800 point army), but i really enjoy playing them anyways

Can orcs take a merc. wizard?

I don't believe, though they need none. Orc Shamans are good enough.

In Orc fluff if the Bigest and strongest is in charge and the Warboss is chalenged by one of another race does that make the person of the other race leader of the Orc warband/waaaaagh/ thingy?

only if the new guy is "bigga an' 'arder, an' shows dat boss wat's wat."
in other words, The challenger must kill the old warboss.

Unlike what most people think, Goblin Hordes are actually one of the most powerful armies in fantasy. In a 2K point game, they can have 2 Stone Throwers, 2 Bolt Throwers, 2 Doom Diver Catapults, A Lv.4 Shaman, 3 Lv. 2 Shamans, 2 Big Bosses, a ton of Night Goblin arrers with Fanatics, and speedy Wolf Boys led by the big bosses. Except for their shoddy leadership(which is ok, because a 40-Man unit with only the command upgrades is only 100pts.), and Animosity, Goblin Hordes can dominate.

Ok this thread need to be woken up so I've got something that should help get it going

Ok all you GOblins out there What kinds of things do you equip your Bigbosses, Warbosses, shamen and all other goblin heros and lords with weapons, armour, and so on so dig thro your chest of bits and nastys and tell us what you've got  

[Drakeoss Dragoon]

come on some one out there must have come up with some fun stuff for there lords and heros like I'm giving 3 of my goblin shamans the staff of sneaky stealin, and Ditto's Double doin do-dahs so I can steal your power dice and use it to power the fact that they can cast there spells twice each *insert evil laugh here*

((and becuase every one else was slow I got the 100th post *insert another evil laugh* twisted twisted pirate pirate pirate ))  

[Hellwolve]

I usually take two or three charactes: one Black Orc Warboss to lead the troops, with Drog's Dead Ard Armour and a great weapon, a Great Shaman with Ditto's Double Doin' Doodas smile

About the Non Ork a Warboss-

It doesn;t happen all that often. It a human kills the Warboss, the Orc's wil the kill the 'ity 'ittle 'umie. However, it has been known for Goblins to lead warbands, but the minute Black orcs show up, they are in charge.
An oger might lead some Orc's here and there, but that open to debate.
