Hi all
I'm in the process of making a Gobbo/Orc team, now i was wondering if i am able to take an ogre instead of a troll ie: Morg n Throg or what ever his name is? if so am i able to take Freelance or mercenary Ogres in my team? I just want to take one and I'm just making sure its ok and is allowed wit the current LRB5 or 6 rules.
Cheers
MyKi

According to the rules there's only the troll option for a permanent player on your team. To get an Ogre you'd be depending on inducements and a lot of it at that.

If it's just the looks of an ogre mini instead of a troll, I would simply do that and use the troll stats on the ogre. I'd be surprised if an opponent objected.

Ok cool, so i can swap the stats around instead of the ogre mini being ogre stats it will have troll stats... yeah that works great cool. Another thing how many trolls are allowed on a team like 0-2 etc?

Was going to post a self-help link to specialist-games, but they've screwed up their site-code. Anyways, for orcs:

0-1 Troll
0-4 Black Orcs
0-4 Blitzers
0-2 Throwers
0-4 Goblins
0-16 Linemen

Yep, saying a model "counts as" something else is a common phrase in BB. Especially if someone is using a nicely painted fig.
