Odd question, especially since it's an older thread, but how are you finding this list? Do you feel handicapped by the lack of beastclaw raiders, or are the ogres fine on their own without them? Are you even using this list still?

[Jack Shrapnel]

I try different lists every week... I am hampered by the lack of beastclaw raiders, which add a LOT to the army since they combined.

ogres can work without them, but if you have a rough turn and start losing models it's hard to claw back out of that situation... I've had that happen twice now where I was doing well then had one brutal turn and it was all over. If you can get the buff train working though, gluttons and ironguts can really bring the pain.

Leadbelchers SEEM like they could be good, but to be honest I haven't really gotten big results from them at all... their shooting looks nasty, but it's not really. Even if you roll 20 shots, only 10 are hitting, 7 wounding with a -1 save for one damage (so against most things probably landing five wounds optimally - so 2 liberators?)

Alright, thanks for the input.

They sort of sounds like Custodes, where losing even a single models can be a bad thing just based on how pricey they are points wise.
