If the WoC are deployed WarriorBlock-Chosen-WarriorBlock, then charge the 2 warrior blocks, break them, and overrun out of LoS of the Chosen. O&G do this best with Savage Orc Big'Uns


O&G have another nifty weapon to deal with Chosen: itchy nuisance, those chosen are fearsome, but at M1 or 2 they're not going anywhere.

I have managed games where chosen did not get to combat a single time, while the rest of the army got ripped to shreds.

Similarly I just wait until all his units are near, then charge the warrior unit next to the Chosen with SO Biguns. Break them no problem at all, overrun, next turn Hand of Gork back over to the other side of the field and the Star was completely avoided.

I hate hard counters. In a game of rock, paper, scissors, I hate playing any of the factions because no matter what you choose you might as well not deploy against your hard counter. I want to use a gun. Rock, paper, and scissors could all probably still beat gun, but gun will never feel like a game is a lost cause.

Played the chosen star once, made them charge a redirector which fled and was caught in between my two gor blocks, took it two turns to get me in it's charge arc and by that stage it was too far away to stop the rot
