I have an new ogre team, and I would like to win a game with them. Smashing opponent is not possible, as only high AV teams (dwarfs, chaos dwarfs) want to play vs them. So how can I manage to win a match?

Thanks for the advice.

I'm not that experienced with ogres, but in my oppinion... Throw Team Mate!

If you can't grind down your oponent just chuck a gobbo and pray!

Cage and TTM Smile

But the real clue is scoring with one of your Ogres ^_^

Protect your gobos. Sure hands on double to ogre if you want to develop him as a scorer. Consider dirty player on double to gobo if you are playing against high AV teams. Watch som ogrematch replays. All in all I think ogres have a hard time in ranked.

Here's my first ogre team participating in an all race tournament and are doing pretty well (with some major luck):

Touchbacks are your friend. Or else, do take the +AG on an ogre... although AG2 isn't completely useless for picking up the ball (4+ with reroll is 75%). Pretend you're playing dwarfs and take it slow. It's hard to break through an ST5 cage... but with bonehead you can't count on a solid cage. Watch out for stripballers.

Well, given the pricy Ogres you can hardly start with more than 2. You are at the mercy of nuffle in many situations, but i guess that's the price you pay for the st5 army. My team has had the luck with the ballhandling - could have gone much worse if those 3+ pick ups had failed more often.

With Ogres you KNOW you can bash, you never know if you can win.
