Since it was on sale I went ahead and gave the game a try. Despite playing the tutorial I have very little idea what I'm doing. Probably something to do with not reading the manual...
My Skaven have been having problems with their rat ogres falling to puny man-things. Doubtless some rival has had them drugged...
Edit: Just had an incredibly frutrating/amusing go at an Orc SP campaign. After losing the first game I was determined to win the second, which turned out to be against Ogres. Come up with a weather change (pouring rain) from the kickoff roll. The Ogres and I spent the following 16 turns taking turns fumbling the ball and/or having our guys fall in the rain when trying to push their movement too far. At halftime I was two squares from a touchdown, then again near the end of the second half (although at least this time I had lost the ball from a failed dodge right before scoring rather than still being in control of it and having to watch the game end just before my victory). I'd be upset but it was very funny watching both sides fumble the ball around.
On the plus side I took out quite a few of their snotlings and my boys held their own quite well in brawls with the ogre players. I think that qualifies as a win by Orc standards.
