Ornak-usefull without the orcs?
I know of course with the grut orcs(archers,blade, and heavy) that he is usefull. But recently I've been trying him with a army of mainly utgar heros. His "bonding" can really be a help, and usually doesnt screw you over. Mainly, I use him with Cyprien, Wo-Ga-Sa, sometimes even isamu, isrka(sp?)and the marro hive/warlords. Late game he works perfectly with marcu. Should I keep using him like this? Any hero suggestions?

I use Mimring with him pretty regularly. Getting a fourth turn with the possibility of multiple attacks of 4 is nice to have.

Use him to activate Marcu, and you wont have to worry about your opponent controling Marcu.

Team him up with Brunack and you can move Ornack without having to move Ornack. It can be a big help to be able to use RFoF and still move Ornack into better position.
There are so many solid Utgar heroes that Ornack is definitely playable sans orcs. Looking for quality maps for 3+ players? Think your latest map-masterpiece deserves a place of honor? Join in the discussion of The War-zones of Valhalla It doesn't get any more classic than this: The C3V project |

Re: Orank-usefull without the orcs?
I like Ornak, though when he first came out, the number of medium-cost Utgar heroes was somewhat limited. It is still hard to find good heroes for him to use. I tried him with DW9000 and DW8000 for a powerhouse range, but keeping them in 8 clear sight spaces and keeping them alive was a struggle. When one goes down, Ornak becomes quite useless.
Lately I've been using him with Heavy gruts with some good results. It is difficult to keep him near them (his move is 6) but his aura is two, so it makes it easier. I like him as a stand alone-bonding hero. He works well. |

He'll be good in a unique hero tournament, hint hint

I also like to combo him with Brunak, so you get to use brunak (who will taxi Ornak around with him) and then another hero (on the first turn at least)

Re: Orank-usefull without the orcs?
Double Hero activations is definitely worth the 100 point cost in most formats. I see the Orc buffing as a bonus. Marcu, Cyprien and Brunak are my favorites for the reasons listed above.
Activating with the Hive isn't really so great since you don't get to activate the squad - you only get to attack something adjacent to the Hive, and then attempt to Rebirth. |
