| When building a Warhammer army,
the best place to begin is with its respective Army book.
These books are indispensable, as they not only provide you
with the complete rules and army lists for your Ogre Kingdoms
army, but also give you guides for painting, assembling, and
selecting your army. Plus, you'll learn the background story
of these obese terrors, a story you can find nowhere else.
Warhammer Armies: Ogre Kingdoms is
one in a series of Warhammer Armies supplements. Each book
in the series provides an in-depth description of an army,
its history, and its heroes. Inside, you will find:
The Brutish Hordes
A full-colour bestiary, with complete descriptions of all the troops that make
up the ravenous armies of the Ogre Kingdoms.
A Gathering of Might
Full rules for the weapons of destruction available to the
Ogre player, both mundane and magical, plus the Gut Magic
of the Butchers – bloated shamans devoted to the Great
Maw. Also included are Big Names to boost the abilities of
your Ogre heroes and rules for devastating bull charges that
smash enemies aside before a single blow is struck.
Guts of Legend
Rules and background for Greasus Goldtooth the Overtyrant, as immense in wealth
as he is in girth, and Skrag the Slaughterer, blood-maddened Prophet of the
Great Maw.
Collecting an Ogre Army
A reference for collectors, with advice on how to paint your
own Ogre Kingdom army.
An Ogre Kingdoms army is a massive, blunt instrument
that smashes into enemy lines with the force of a ton of bricks.
It is a hard-hitting, impact driven army that is devastating
on the charge but will often be hugely outnumbered on the
battlefield. Nevertheless, with the right combination of Ogre
units led by one of the fearsome Tyrants, an opponent's battle
line can be smashed apart by a devastating bull charge even
before a single iron-bound club is swung. However, to get
the most out of an Ogre Kingdoms army, you must coordinate
the attacks of its supporting units, including the bestial
Yhetee packs and shark-toothed Gorgers, the diminutive and
cruel slave-race of the Gnoblars, and the shamanic Butchers
who wield the mighty magic of the Great Maw.
