Orcs & Goblins Army Banner

Now that my O&G army has reached a respectable size, I thought it was time to give it a big impressive army banner. But first I needed to figure out who would be mighty enough to bear it. Some time ago, I painted a Black Orc Hero, it was meant to be an independent character. It is referred to as "Tusker Commander" and is produced by Knightmare Miniatures.

But then, I realized that Tusker has just the right body posture to hold this role. Also, he is so huge and massive that he is just perfect for that. And here he is bearing the grand banner of my O&G army.

The Biggest and the Meanest of the Greenskins

Black Orcs! They will be the shock unit of my O&G army. The 3rd edition Armies says that the max unit size for these guys is only 10... Why? This is completely absurd. I mean, you can have up to 40 Black Orcs in your army. What's the point to have 4 units of 10? If my opponents agree when time comes to align my Greenskins in a battle, I will have them in a single unit of 20. And they will wear a heavy armour, yes sir! (actually, it's exactly what the minis wear, look below)

The minis come from different periods and manufacturers. We have there old Citadel Black Orcs, some are more recent Citadel ones and the others are Iron Orcs from Knightmare Miniatures.

I have also painted another huge Orc from Knightmare Miniatures (he goes by the name 'Tusker Commander'). This one will either be an individual Black Orc Hero or perhaps a mighty Savage Orc Hero (due to the fact he wears little armour and he looks really wild).
