<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Starting an Ogre army"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/93.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Starting an Ogre army
I am making a switch from 40k and getting into Fantasy and wanted to know where to invest money as well as best options for the ogre army at around a 2k army and then where to expand from there.

I am currently reading both the codex and manual and want to know where to spend points and build a list possible. I want to have an army thats heavy hitting and can get into the action fast. I was wondering how to build a calvary centered Ogre army, if at all possible? What sort of point distribution is needed? I was going to get the battalion box to help start the army and build from there.

Thanks a bunch.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3940891.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3940891.page GMT Starting an Ogre army

The reason for a whole calvary army was because I was hoping to make them based on ironskin tribe. I found this PDF and was hoping to build somehting around it.

Slaughter master
Fire belly
Bsb
15 iron guts
2x4 mourn fang cavalry
3x1 sabre tooth
That's probably around the 2k mark and pretty much what my cousin fields and does well with]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3942727.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3942727.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945217.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945217.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945408.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945408.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945692.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3945692.page GMT Re:Starting an Ogre army
Technically, you could field 3 units of 4 mournfang Cavalry as your fastest, hardest hitting troops. It is kinda though and not intended for friendly matches.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3946006.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3946006.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3946069.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3946069.page GMT Re:Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947088.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947088.page GMT Re:Starting an Ogre army

Calvary is a cool aspect of warhammer but ogres aren't really strong in it. In fact they only have Mournfang calvary in special. Yhettis are not very good but if you use them use them like calvary. If you really like calvary play brettonia.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947460.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947460.page GMT Re:Starting an Ogre army

That may be true, but Mournfangs are one of the best cavalry in the game]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947495.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3947495.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3949604.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3949604.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3951426.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3951426.page GMT Starting an Ogre army It's their muscly legs, see.
That and given the limited nature of Ogre cavalry, it's actually much better to use foot troops, if only so that you don't get overrun and ripped to bits by more numerous armies.

However, Mournfangs are the bees' knees, and I'd reccomend having one solid unit of four of them in your army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3951452.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3951452.page GMT Starting an Ogre army BSB and the usual wargear to bolster their forces.

I think a 2-1 ratio of bull units to ironguts is good]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3952510.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3952510.page GMT Starting an Ogre army
New ogres give you a lot of fun when writing lists and whilst mournfang are freaking hard. They will get magicked at; all the time.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3960863.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3960863.page GMT Starting an Ogre army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3963930.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/431377/3963930.page GMT
