Final Ogre Kingdoms List

2 Gorgers
3 units of 24 Gnoblar Fighters
2 units of 8 Gnoblar Trappers
1 Gnoblar Scraplauncher
3 Yhetees
2 units of 2 Leadbelchers with Bellowers
3 units of 3 Bulls with addtional hand weapons (one unit has standard bearer and lookout gnoblar)
1 Hunter with 2 Sabretusks, a Talisman of Protection, and the Beastkiller Big Name
1 Butcher with a Bangstick and Dispel Scroll
1 Butcher with a Hellheart
1 Tyrant with Tenderiser, Jade Lion, Heavy Armor, and Wyrdstone Necklace

I am planning to take this list against a Skaven army. I've never had much success with my Ogres so I don't really know how this is going to work. My expectation is that Plague Furnaces and either Hellpit Abominations or Doomwheels will be taken.

For dealing with the plague furnaces, I plan to use my gnoblar to force charges that will allow my ogres to flank charge or force charges into rough terrain.

With the Hellpit Abominations, I'm hoping to use my Butchers to cast Braingobbler and force some panic test failures. This is my best shot at beating these as Ogres do not have any way of getting flaming attacks. My only other hope is that my hunter might be able to do some damage to them before they get into close combat or my Tyrant with Tenderiser can manage to get the charge and make it through the regeneration.

Against Doomwheels, the strategy is the same as with the Hellpits. I am hopeful that I can force it out of control with the Hunter's Harpoon Launcher and into some dangerous/rough terrain.

This is going to be a really rough battle for me I think but I'm hopeful that I'll be able to pull off a draw, or even perhaps a marginal victory.
