Hey guys long time reader first time poster.

So I've been playing for quite some time and have been regularly pounding Orcs and Goblins. My opponent claims that my army should beat him every single time regardless of skill because of a fundamental flaw in the game. I know Orcs suffer in this edition but my challenge is to play as orcs against my own vampire counts.

He will field something similar to what i do which is adhering to the basic principals i have found work for me :
Dont use skeletons, dont rely on magic, and use tons of chaff
My list normally includes a lvl 4 vamp lord blender, tons of ghouls, a block of horrors, spirit hosts, bats, vargs, a tg, and an ME, so i expect those units.
So are there any experienced OnG players who have some tactics and/or unit ideas to bring the pain to him? Oh we normally play 2500 games. Thanks guys!
 
Think outside the pine box. Try this:

O&G are my main army (until my VC are painted!) and the main killing in my army is done by 30 Savage Orc Big 'Uns with two hand weapons, with a Savage Orc Great Shaman with Lucky Shrunken Head (gives ths unit a 5+ ward)... Also Mangler Squigs are something I know a lot of greenskin generals swear by.

Artillery is good and cheap too... doom divers, rock lobbas and spear chukkas all useful to soften up blocks before your troops get to them.

Maybe a level 1 orc shaman on a boar to take the sig spell and take out spirit hosts might be useful too?

Hope that helps a bit!
