Crooked Moon Heroes

Black Orc Big Boss

The Black Orcs who reach the upper echelons of their brutal martial hierarchies pride themselves on being the best fighters found anywhere in the Greenskin tribes. In reality, tribes exclusive to the war-obsessed Black Orcs are rare and it is often the case that smaller Black Orc bands work their way into the other Greenskin tribes – but only serving others when the purpose suits them. More often than not, when the pickings are rich they will stay and work towards supplanting the tribe’s current leaders. Being the biggest and toughest fighters, it usually isn’t long before Black Orcs are no longer following orders, but beginning to issue their own as the undisputed Warbosses and Big Bosses of all they survey. Like lesser Black Orcs, the elites amongst their kind don heavy armour and ironshod boots while brandishing ‘eavy choppas’. Uncharacteristically for Greenskins, they take great care in repairing and sharpening their war equipment between battles, eschewing the usual post-battle activities indulged in by Goblins and regular Orcs such as skull-stacking contests, punch-ups, and other indulgences of frivolous debauchery.

Abilities

• Rabble-Rouse
  The more prominent the warrior, the better they are at stirring up subordinates to fight the ghastliest of enemies.
• Wounds
  Even the greatest foes can be laid low with terrible injuries, and the greater the damage done, the less able they will be to effectively continue the fray.

Attributes

• Encourage
  This unit provides a leadership bonus to nearby allies. Units within range of both the Lord's aura and an encouraging unit will receive the larger of the two bonuses.
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.
• Immune to Psychology
  The unit is immune to psychological attacks (fear and terror).

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Armoured & Shielded
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage. Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Melee Expert
  Melee Experts might have a very strong melee attack or melee defence, or high values in both. Some also have melee-focused skills like [[img:ui/battle ui/ability_icons/charge_defense.png]]Charge Defence. Use them to counter other strong melee units. When facing them, it is best to take them out before they can enter melee.
