Orcs and Goblins are one of the most ferocious armies in the Warhammer world. They are a nomadic culture that is addicted to war and conflict, just as Chaos is, but not as bad. They will fight anything that they come across, whether it be Humans, Dwarves, Elves, Skaven or themselves. Orcs and Goblins suffer from animosity over each other. In the middle of a battle they can turn their attention away from the enemy and then start attacking another Orc or Goblin unit. Although this doesn't happen very offen, Orcs will usually attack another Goblin unit either because they don't like Gobbos(Goblins), or they are hungry and want a Gobbo snack. Their inititive and leadership in battle are low, but they make up for it with brute strength and large numbers. All Orcs and Goblins worship two Gods, Gork and Mork. Orcs will do anything that their Gods ask of them without hesitating. For magic Orcs draw upon Waaugh magic. Although not as powerful as High Magic or Chaos Magic, it suites them well. Orc Shamans draw upon the energy that is created during battle by other Orcs. From this they are able to cast their spells at the enemy and/or at themselves.
If you are a Orc player looking for some tips on how defeat other armies then look no further. Orcs are very good when it comes to hand-to-hand combat. They are the second strongest army in the Warhammer world, second only to The Realm of Chaos. the best thing that you can do is get in to hand-to-hand combat with your enemy as soon as possible. Also, Rock Lobbers are good units if you can hit with them. Secondly, you should try to outnumber your opponent as much as you can. This strategy works well against the Realm of Chaos. If you are able to outnumber your opponent and if your units are stronger, you have a very good chance of winning the battle.
If you are another army other than Orcs and Goblins, and are looking for some tips against a Orc and Goblin army, then look no further. Orcs and Goblins are fairly strong in hand-to-hand combat, so I suggest that you do not try to get into hand-to-hand as quickly as possible unless you are prepared. Instead, I suggest that you stay back for awhile and hit them with archery as much as you can. But if you do this, spread your combat troops out so that they aren't all one big target for Rock Loobers and Doomdivers. Also, if you can, try to outnumber them as much as possible. It will be tough considering that Orc abd Goblin armies are usually fairly large but it will help trmendously.
