What mounts do your Orcs ride?

I do not like the idea of orcs riding wolfs and so I gave my Khursan Orcs Essex horses to ride.

Wargs

Wargs for me too, always have been and always will!

Other bigger orcs.

My orcs don't ride! That's utterly effete. They march.

Garand22 Jun 2018 11:12 a.m. PST

Orcs on horses never tracked for me. I think an all-foot army is more orcy. Hobgobs on horses works for me though, as well as gobbos on wolfs.

I've got an Orc toddler riding a tricycle. Can't remember the manufacturer.

For the very few who do, Wargs – I agree with Garand that the Orcs should be a mostly-infantry force

I do have a mob of goblins mounted on wargs

JimSelzer22 Jun 2018 1:35 p.m. PST

boars and wargs for rank and file

bigger monsters for leaders

Since no one said it I will. Their women. Have you see how large orc females are???? 😀

roving bandit22 Jun 2018 2:03 p.m. PST

Mostly boars, a few wolves, and now after reading Orc Warfare I am thinking about some Flesh Eaters (evil horses).

Winston Smith22 Jun 2018 2:26 p.m. PST

I had Old School Warhammer Orcs on the lead boars.
I never liked the plastic boars. Too cute. The lead ones were vicious looking.

Patrick Sexton Supporting Member of TMP22 Jun 2018 3:02 p.m. PST

Wolves/wargs.

Orcs ride orcas.

Horses. Goblins ride wolves and wargs.

The Rohirrim complained about the black horses being stolen sucb that they had become rare.

Cyrus the Great22 Jun 2018 5:25 p.m. PST

Wolves, wargs and the occasional boar.

Col Durnford22 Jun 2018 5:42 p.m. PST

Goblins only on wolves.

Orcs don't ride. As I recall, the lore was that horses could not stand orcs.

That said I do have one orc riding a hell horse modeled on "Blucifer" of DIA in Denver.

"The Rohirrim complained about the black horses being stolen sucb that they had become rare"

But that was a comment on Saruman's Uruk Hai not your typical fantasy orcs

evilgong22 Jun 2018 8:24 p.m. PST

My memory was the Rohan black horses were stolen by Mordor, with an implication they were going to black riders or similar.

Wargs or wolves

skinkmasterreturns23 Jun 2018 4:23 a.m. PST

Tolkieny wargs and Warhammery pigs. My Orcs would only eat the horses so there's no point.

Mike Target23 Jun 2018 4:28 a.m. PST

Boars. And Triceratops.

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP23 Jun 2018 8:25 a.m. PST

Wolves
Ogre
Motorcycles

Cyrus the Great23 Jun 2018 11:40 a.m. PST

Hmm, no spider riders mentioned yet.

USAFpilot23 Jun 2018 12:21 p.m. PST

Wargs. Orcs eat horse flesh.

Zyphyr23 Jun 2018 7:02 p.m. PST

Captured Elves. Wait, those are for pulling chariots.
