				<title>Converting my 7th ed. Orcs &amp; Goblins to 8th.</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ The following list is one that I used with fairly good success during the advent of 8th edition. However, I haven't played a single game under the new army book and I'm not exactly sure how I should go about converting it to fit. <br /> <br /> Here is what I was fielding:<br /> <br /> <u><b>Orcs & Goblins - 2000</b></u><br /> Orc Warboss - Ulag's Akrit Axe, Light Armor, Shield, Warboss Umm's Best Boss 'At<br /> Orc Big Boss - Battle Standard Bearer, Armor of Fortune<br /> Orc Shaman - Level 2, Dispel Scroll<br /> 24 Orc Big 'Uns - Choppas, Shields, Musician, Standard Bearer, Mork's Spirit Totem<br /> 24 Orc Boys - Choppas, Extra Hand Weapons, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 24 Orc Boys - Choppas, Extra Hand Weapons, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 25 Orc Arrer Boys - Choppas, Bows, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 36 Night Goblins - Hand Weapons, Shields, Nets, Musician, Standard Bearer, 2 Fanatics<br /> Goblin Wolf Chariot<br /> Goblin Wolf Chariot<br /> Orc Boar Chariot<br /> Orc Boar Chariot<br /> 6 Trolls<br /> Total - 1997<br /> <br /> Now under the new list, I could easily fit this:<br /> <br /> 24 Orc Big 'Uns - Choppas, Shields, Musician, Standard Bearer, Banner of Eternal Flame<br /> 24 Orc Boys - Choppas, Extra Hand Weapons, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 24 Orc Boys - Choppas, Extra Hand Weapons, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 25 Orc Arrer Boys - Choppas, Bows, Musician, Standard Bearer<br /> 36 Night Goblins - Hand Weapons, Shields, Nets, Musician, Standard Bearer, 2 Fanatics<br /> Goblin Wolf Chariot<br /> Goblin Wolf Chariot<br /> Orc Boar Chariot<br /> Orc Boar Chariot<br /> 6 Trolls<br /> Total - 1520<br /> <br /> Additionally, I own ~10 Boar Boys and a Giant.<br /> <br /> What are your thoughts? Should I make any of the units larger? Obviously, I need to add my <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQs</span> (and I'm open to suggestions). How do people feel about the Arachnarok now that it has been out for a while?<br /> <br /> Thanks!<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Couple things, first off dual <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(59);'>HW</span> for me on my boys is terrible and i like taking shields for that pretty parry save.  Also I would split the units of arrer boys into two smaller units of 12 so that you can use them more as a hunter squad.  Also if you are not taking rares i would take the trolls as stonetrolls personaly (ugly models but nice rules)<br /> <br /> I have played the Arachnarok a few times and each time i like it a bit less 9yes i love the model but it may disapear from my rares and pop up in my lords intstead)  As two cannons mess it up, its still very fragile and though you want to send it against monsters due to all that poisen it will still have a very hard time against a Hydra or HPA]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Whats wrong with dual <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(59);'>hw</span>? You get that nice extra attack with +S  and since boyz dont cost much, it´s no problem to lose "a couple". You give up on the 5+save and 6+ parry but well, that´s why you take more boyz. <br /> ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ The savage orcs make a really good hammer. Strength 5 with 3 attacks on the charge till frenzy is broken? Sounds deadly, even if it gets bogged down.<br /> <br /> That being said, I am concerned that the Savage boys need a priest carrying the shruken head, doubling the effects of their ward save makes them alround tougher, in and out of melee. Even if it's quite litrally a level 1 chucked in there.<br /> <br /> Also, no rare choices? Such as manger squigs?]]></description>
