OK i've got a game coming up soon, my Orcs v's High Elves. He kicked me last time, so i'm trying to think my way around it. Hopefully there's enough Orc generals out there to give me some sound advice.

To give you an idea of his troops, he likes to use Lord on a Dragon, swordmasters, white lions, six bolt throwers, dragon princes, a few lion chariots, and some spearmen and archer units to sprinkle on top. His melee special units are usually 20 figures with full cmd (i've seen a few players take lots of small swordmaster units) He also likes to use Khoril

My proposed list is;

LORD- Black Orc Warboss-bigeds boots kickin, effigy mork, warbosses best 'at, hvy arm, sh....240
LORD- Orc Shaman (lvl 4)-horn urgok, staff baddum............................................................295
HERO- Black Orc BSB- war banner, hvy ar..........................................................................139
HERO- Night Gob Shaman (lvl 2)- bagpipes doom, magic mushroom......................................130
HERO- Night Gob Shaman (lvl 2)- dis scroll, x2 magic mushrooms.........................................130
HERO- Orc Shaman (lvl 2)- dis scroll...................................................................................125

CORE- x5 Wolf Riders with spears, shields.................................65
CORE- x5 Wolf Riders with spears, shields.................................65
CORE- x32 Orc Boyz with lgt arm, add. choppas and full cmd......254
CORE- x31 Orc Boyz with lgt arm, add.choppas and full cmd.......247
CORE- x24 Savage Orcs with add. choppas and full cmd.............270
CORE- x24 Savage Orcs with add. choppas and full cmd.............270
CORE- x24 Savage Orcs "BIG UNS" with add. choppas and full cmd and Banner of Butchery.....391
CORE- x21 Night Goblins with hnd wpns, sh and x3 Fanatics........138
CORE- x20 Night Goblins with short bows and x3 Fanatics...........135

x2 SPEC- x2 Rock Lobbers (both orc bully)................................150
x2 SPEC- x2 Orc Boar Chariots................................................160
SPEC- Spear Chukka...............................................................35

RARE- Doom Diver..................................................................80
RARE- x3 River Trolls...............................................................180 total=3,499

I know i've got all my eggs in one basket with the banner butchery sav orc unit, but i'd like something hard hitting and nasty. They've got 25 str5 attacks, but that's after the elves have hit me. There's some things on this list that i've got painted but never used. I avoided trolls for a while, but was advised to try them out.
Feel free to change as much as you want, you might think this is a poor army.
