Love both the ogres and beasts. Beasts seem to require much more tactical thinking sometimes, while other times the main tactic is run forward to try and smash face. Lore of beast is amazing for beastmen, since everything requires 1 less to cast on them (sig spell is awesome). They're pretty tough, but being boosted by spells really makes them shine.

Duke is correct in saying that beasts are better at hordeing, though personally i prefer a much more mobile army that can run around and fit through gaps to get flanks.

Primal fury is always a plus, especially when you pass on double 1's (hatred AND frenzy), but it's even better when you pass on bestigors.

I love both my ogres and my beasties, so i may have a biased opinion on both.
