My local store is having an event with 2000 points and this rule changes:

orc warboss, wyvern,shield

orc warboss,add hw

savage orc warboss,ogre blade

orc big boss,add hw

savage orc big boss,add hw

35xorc boyz,full command,add hw

savage orc big unz,full command,add hw,big unz

6xtrolls

2xdoom diver

arachnarok spider

This sums up to exactly 2000 points
so what do you think?

Before I have a look at your list, why did they decide to ban magic?

To make it different or something, dont really know but the story goes something like this: an area in the old world where magic is gone(even non magic users can sense there is something wrong with the place),further on legend tells of a profecy that he who can conquer this place will eventually conquer the world. This is why the generals gathers vast armys and rush to be the champions

I don 't know much about playing Orcs, but I think a lot of troop units are better than a lot of characters.

From playing against orks I have come to hate 2 things, black orks and doom divers.

You have doom divers, I would recommend dropping ALL characters except for your Lord and BSB and taking a block of black orks.

Black Orcs are going to be a BIG deal, with those rules expect dragons, phoenixes and the like EVERYWHERE!!! So those Great Weapon black orcs are likely to save your butt against them.

Changes in the list:
all heroes are gone except my savage orc warboss and added an black. Orc big boss as bsb with enchanted shield and lucky stone, added 20 black orcs(which is all i got at the moment) and spent the remaining points into expandiing the orc boys to 40 and the savage orcs to 36

Looks better. But I think you should get some goblins to get in the enemy's way.

Was thinking of mabye change the arachnarok for some night. Goblins with bows netters and fanatics or reduce the orc boyz back to 35 and put in some wolf riders as redirectors

I like the giant spider, I say swap some normal boyz for wolf riders.

The guy who wins is either going to be:
1) The guy with the most half cost monsters.
2) The guy with the most warmachines to kill the half cost monsters.
I'd double down on the wyverns, and load up on squig hopper heroes and gigantic spiders.
Add in a healthy dose of warmachines and mangler squigs and you're good to go.

Ive only got 1 wyvern and no mangler yet but can field 2 spear chukkas and 1 rock lobba. Can field some squig heroes and gigantic spiders but how many and what load out should they take?
