Orc and Goblin Special Unit Tactics
The Orc and Goblin army has a number of special usits that you can include in your army, points permitting.

Orc Boar Boyz
You do not get many Orcs in a Boar Boy unit. For this reason you are best using Boar Boys as support units. This
means that you to use them to pile in to an existing fight from the side or rear, rather than picking a fight on
their own.
There are exceptions to this rule. If you can pick off a fleeing broken unit, or a HQ out in the open, then this
is a good role for the Boar Boys too.

Orc Boar Chariot
Chariots are best when the smash in to units of troops, but
unless you are careful, they will be chopped in to fire wood by any remaining troops. The trick is to hit the
units with a unit of troops on your side too. This will usually thin out the enemy units enough for the
chariot and friendly troop units to survive.
Orc Boar Chariots come with scythed wheels so they get an extra impact hit.
Goblin Squig Hoppers
The Squig Hoppers are another fun elements of the Orc and
Goblin army. They are direct able, but their moment distance is random.
Another quirk of the Goblin Squig Hoppers is that they move in the compulsory move sub-phase. This means that
you get to see what they do before you need to decide on your other movements, but they move after the assaulting
troops have moved in.
