I love the idea of reviving grimnak in todays games... Personally i use heavy gruts and grim as a tank and grenade formation, capitalizing on his defence bonus, then once in striking range I explode... like a grenade my gruts go in all directions away from grimnak, they sneak into the enemies lines using disengage, as the gruts are picked off i move more gruts from behind to regroup with grimnak and resume tank formation only to explode once more.

I love Grimnak...he's still one of my favorites and one of the most fun units in the game. I think it is worth point out that Tornal/Nerak/Ornak/Grimnak's abilities all stack. Having an army with multiple Orc champions can result in some really pumped up Orcs if you are keeping tight formation.

Grimnak was definitely one of my favorite figures in the Master Set. Whoever thought of putting an Orc on a T-Rex should get a raise. I think I might use him again tomorrow for old times' sake.

I can't wait until the same guy puts an Orc on a pterodactyl. Dibs on the Strategy Guide!

I'd like one on a Brontosaurus or Triceratops just as much. An Orc Champion with Trample-Stomp? Yes please. I just hope there's enough room on the card to fit that and Orc Warrior Enhancement.

Re: Unit Strategy Review: How to use Grimnak

I added a Tournament Readiness section and fixed a few embarrassing typos.

‡Recall that Grimnak is a hero, so a 17 or higher is needed.

Should be Morsbane.

Re: Unit Strategy Review: How to use Grimnak

Actually both Morsbane and Grimnak only need a 16 for their Powers to work. The person was thinking of Sudema who needs a 17 vs Heroes.

Re: Unit Strategy Review: How to use Grimnak

And the line in question was actually referring to Sudema's chance of stoning Grimnak, so
