Awesome Rod. Hope you send pictures to the folks at LOD. Post some up on his Facebook page!

Yes, that is a possible modification from my question about the subsequent language on warband in the thread. It's the paragraph below from the old DBM army list that raises the question of whether there should be any warband at all for orcs. Bill Why aren't Orcs Wb? People just keep asking me. Well...
