Hi all,

So Orcs and Goblins used to have a rule saying only one unit of Orcs could be upgraded to Big ‘Uns across your whole army.

The new rules in Ravening Hordes for the Old World seem to word it differently. Now, the unit profiles for boyz and boar boyz say 0-1 unit can be upgraded to big ‘uns.

In my view, this means that, while you still can’t take multiple big ‘uns units *of the same type*, you can still take units of different types and upgrade them to big ‘uns. Eg you could take orc boyz infantry and boar boyz and make each unit big ‘uns, but you couldn’t take two boar boyz units and make them both big ‘uns.

I have heard it suggested otherwise but in my view that’s just edition lag.

Thoughts?

You are 100% correct.
