Should I have on an Orc team? I'm thinking 12 including the Troll and goblin (why have one without the other, right?)

On a Skaven team? 12? 13? More? The team didn't get a Rat Ogre off the get go, so no point in buying one now - besides, the bloat that would create!

I'm not looking for a complete min/max or I'd link the teams (and consider dropping the st4 claw blitzer with -AV from the Skaven) It always feels wierd calling them blitzers instead of storm vermin.

I could see any number from 11-14 frankly.

But yeah, never a gobbo, never. Troll is fine as a road block, gobbo is trash.

I try to run 13 skaven every chance I get, especially if I have a 1-Turner on the roster. Skaven win by being a mugger band. Play loose until there's an opening to attack the ball, then swarm and steal, and be gone before am opponent can catch up. I'm honestly the type to 1-turn on the opening kick, just to put immediate pressure on an opponent. And, I'd you ever take a 2 td lead, you should have the game won.

With orcs, I'll run 12, without a goblin. I find the little guy is too fragile when I can instead field a line orc. That, and the ttm is too unreliable without a lot of help. I honestly feel that if I need a ttm with orcs to win, then I've played too poorly in a match.

Depedns a lot on the environment. They are Ranked so you don't have to trim tv as much as in box.

Don't fire the st4 claw blitzer!!

Start taking dp on your rat linemen and get to 13-14 players when you have 2-3.

Orcs don't need bench as much. I'd go 13 after you get a dirty player. Your linemen are cheap and good tho, so even getting one for spare just so you don't get outnumbered int he odd match isn't a terrible idea.

Orcs? 13 men is optimal if you foul a lot, 12 if you don't.
