"How many cannons do your Orcs need?" Topic

For your tabletop army, how many cannons are needed to fully equip your Orc army?

* 2

My orcs are pre-gunpowder era orcs.

One time I took my Polish Renaissance army (Kislev, doncha know!) against a mixed Orc Goblin army. They didn't have cannons. But I did. 🙄
Great carnage ensued.
Maybe they later got cannons, but I never saw them again. I imagine they could have done damage against Winged Hussars.

Cannons, muskets and crossbows are wrong for Fantasy in my book. I enjoy Oathmark so much for this reason!- amongst many others.

Depends on whose Orcs they are and the size of the army, it is fantasy so unless mirroring a particular tale/ book who cares,

Tally Ho!

I have a large unit of Foundry mercenary Orcs link the largest has a shoulder fire armed with a goblin loading crew that could be thought of as a cannon. But no other cannons.

I have not yet fielded them in a game.

Wouldn't this also depend on the size of the Orc army? But I don't have much use for the "every fantasy army must have every type of unit" school. I'm content to have Orcs without such high-tech weapons and Dwarves without cavalry.

Orcs don't have cannons.

They did in Bakshi's "Wizards", and in Slaughterloo.

* I do not use cannons in my fantasy gaming

No cannons but one or two heavy bolt throwers or catapults

No cannons for orcs.

None: Dwarves get cannons. Orcs get cannonballs, delivered at speed.
Okay, sometimes men get cannons, too.

(EXCEPTION: Armada
Orc ships have cannons. But so do all the others. It's a fantasy naval game; of course it involves cannon!)

I am not required to be consistent; merely to have fun.

Why use cannons when a couple of acres of goblins can do it for sheaper?

I have never considered this question, but if a nice STL file of an ork cannon and crew fell in my lap, my orks would get cannon. I don't think I'd get religious about it.

I assume we're talking about fantasy orks. If it's 40K orks then they don't get cannon, they get truks, because that's canon.

While I was typing this my computer turned "ork" into "oak", then "irk", then "work". It won't give up trying to help.

I have some fantasy cannons themed in "good" and "evil", but none specically assigned or tailored to specific fantasy forces.

I've never considered deploying them with Orcs …

Orcs! Crunch all you want … we'll make more!

See … that's what AI art is useful for. Also this …

… it's basically me after more than 8 hours of RPGing.

Never even thought to give Orcs cannons.

My Orcs don't have them.
But thinking about it, it would be rather fun. There could be a good chance it blows up, barrel skews around, gunners grab a snotling for ammo, etc.

Really, are Orcs cannonical?

My orcs and goblins army (Warmaster figures but based for HOTT) does not have cannon.

Matters not how many you bring because you never have enough dakka!
