<td>When playing against orcs I always thought they seemed like a simple team to win with. They have the agility and the strength to play a VERY effective (although a bit boring) cage game.

So this is my experiment, just how easy are orcs?

I play on a couple of principles to prove my thesis.

1) I don't foul. Never see the need to with such a strong team (or ever, but that's beside the point).
2) Big Guys are a liability. Orcs are strong enough without this risk of turnovers. Enough BoB and Guard and they're solid without Trolls.
3) A team is never stronger than it's weakest members. So I score with my linemen to get them their first Block, before scoring with Blitzers to get them their first Guard.
4) Goblins... Fun, but useful? Might try it sometime.
5) Keep the roster clean. Fire a niggled as soon as I can afford, since I never want to play one positional short.
6) Order of skillchoices: Stand Firm, Guard, Block, Tackle, fun stuff. BoBs get Block first ofcourse.
7) Mighty Blow is overrated. A stun is as good as an RIP. I'll go for other fun stuff instead.
8) 5 Team Rerolls, then I start hiring starplayers.
9) Limited cherrypicking. A shitload of claws, RSC or DPs makes for an overly destructive play, so I avoid those. Otherwise I challenge everything except other orcs, but will accept a challenge by those too.

Now, personly I find this team stonger than my Necros and CD at the same TR/TS, but for some strange reason I have an easier time finding games with the orcs. Go figure.</td><td width=50>&nbsp;</td></tr></table>
