Black Orc Units and Characters

Marauder Axemen

by Avian

This unit type actually appears in the computer game 'Mark of Chaos' and I was really hoping to see them in the Warriors of Chaos army book, but it was not to be and we got Forsaken and Warshrines instead.

 

Marauder Axemen - Core

Amongst the warriors of the savage tribes of the wastelands the axe is amongst the most common weapons used. The specialist Axemen groups use a pair of hand axes and carry bandoliers of razor-sharp throwing axes to deadly effect. Being especially trained for hit and run tactics, the axemen will lurk around the edges of the battlefield, waiting to pounce on a weak target in close combat or cleave the skull of an unware foe with a well-thrown blade.
