Orks vs Chaos Dwarfs

Any suggestions on playing with Orks? CD has a Troll and a Bull Centaur, 6 Dwarfs and 5 Hobs, if I remember correctly. I got three BOBs and 4 Blitzers.

Any advice?

Cheers

... You should have mentioned that you never make the armor rolls ...

The opponent ...

Use lineorcs and blockers to slow down the troll, centaur & dwarves, relying on your AV 9. Use blitzers to take out the hobgobs. Then outnumber the centaur and finally the dwarves. Use any AG 3 player to pick up the ball and score, while your opponent wastes rerolls on ball handling.

Ok, you block that bull centaur, what about the troll and the six chaos dwarfs? As THE game is Sunday, I'll tell you how it went.
Humans got annihilated in the last game. Well he was also rolling like a pregnant whale. Every try was a hit. Second half nine players were out.
Well luck has to run out at one point. Or so's the theory.

On the previous post. How do you slow those bastards down. I guess killing is an option I guess. Let's get ready to rumble ....

Simple: BC vs BOB is pretty much a standoff, same ST, AG, AV. Plus it's him who loses 2 movement more than you. Dodge with a BC? Let him waste his rerolls!
Don't try to concentrate on the BC (only with fouls, keep him down or kick him out), take out the players you can easily take out. They (hobgobs) will care for the ball and now your blitzers are right there while his baddies brawl with some disposable BOB or lineorc. You 1, Him 0.
(ok, ask your dice to be friendly :wink:)

It would be interesting to mention that in the named game, my oh-so-scary Bull Centaur tripped on the very first GFI in the very first turn rolling snakeeyes, got KOed, failed the Thick Skull roll ('nother one) and never returned for the whole game!

Well the luck on dice then turned 180° but the start was frightening.

That was implied in the question about the Troll

Chance favours the prepared mind ... But what if there's none ...

Plus I never implied the "horse" was scary, just a nuisance ...

Yep, grep-v, I'll make a little war dance, sacrifice some chicken and than pray to the gods ...
