What your Ogre Kingdoms have turned into, so you can go and eat the new things of the nine realms! Ogors have gone from an inexpensive, fun, and fairly powerful army in WFB to dirt cheap to play (An Ogre Battalion Box is more than enough to start a solid cheese-fest army), fast moving, hard hitting and obscenely tough army in AoS. Aside from Gnoblars and Sabretusks, EVERY model has multiple wounds, multiple attacks and deals multiple wounds, usually with a -1 rend. Also The Maw is not only useful but actually quite good now.
Rules are here [1]
Ogors Warscrolls
Forenote: The following section will be arranged with similar units and formations being grouped together for easier reading.
This is by no means a complete guide, and focuses only on Ogors. Also due to the relatively recent release of Age of Sigmar and lack of Fantasy players remaining, most of this is based on theory. Take everything with a pinch of salt.
