Neat! What were your lists? Surprised the Ironguts did so poorly.
Your ogre skin color scheme is interesting. Are they a volcano tribe?

Looks like a fun game regardless of the outcome. One of your photos is captioned "The Ironguts faced off with the Ironbreakers." - wasn't it the Bulls who were in combat with them? I would have expected Ironguts to do well against Ironbreakers, as they'd be reduced to a 6+ armour save/5++ parry ward.

I had 2x 8 Bulls 1x 8 Ironguts Tyrant, Bruiser BSB and 2 Butchers 6 Leadbelchers 4 Mournfangs 2x Sabertusks Steve had something like 2x 10 X Bows 1 x 10 hanguns Flamecannon Organ gun Big block o'slayers Big block o' Ironbreakers Unit of warriors Big unit of hammerers with a lord on the shoulders When the Ogres first came out they had grey skins - that got changed with later versions of the book - so that's what i gave them. |

Yes I was hoping the bulls would hold and I could ram the Ironguts into the flank but failures to cast meant they weren't stubborn, so away they ran. The IG killed a total of 10 quarrellers - which is not a great return on their points... |

Oh neat I didn't know that they used to be grey.
Flame Cannons are so good especially against Ogres.

Fortunately the Flame Cannon misfired. Twice. First Turn - Fire Next Turn Turn Two - Explode How I laughed  This was pretty much my only significant piece of good fortune in the game |

I get it, with those saves Ironbreakers are 50% to save inflicted wounds and at WS5 the Ogres aren't hitting them easy. I've rolled hot with Ironbreaker saves before. When they're on....they're on! |

Cool looking game, I have faced ogres several times with my wood elves and have had some horrific defeats. Mind you, most comprehensive arse kicking ever was from dwarfs.
