A New Ogre Preview From Mantic Games For Kings Of War
November 23, 2012 by brennon
For Thanksgiving yesterday, Mantic Games decided to preview another sculpt from their upcoming Ogre army in Kings of War. Check out the mighty warrior below...
The proportions look better when it comes to the legs and body now, and the definition between the armour plating is great. I do like these models, and if you were planning to do a Warcraft inspired army at some point then these would make perfect Orcs of the Horde!
Will you be starting an Ogre army in Kings of War?

Those legs are a massive improvement over the last ones I saw, seems like Mantic listen to constructive crit which gets my respect.
The arms are still too big imho but the legs are an improvement
Looks kinda good, but looks much more like warcraft orc with giant hands then ogre 😛

Looks so much like the Orc from this wallpaper lol.

The legs are indeed a great improvement, but I agree the head makes it too orcish. I don’t necessarily mind the large arms though.
I prefer the look to Games Workshop’s ogres, if their army fodder looked more akin to this guy I’d probably have caved by now! Good job Mantic!
Just waiting on those Werewolves now! 😀
I’ll say for Mantic this is good.
Is this the ogre captain? As all the others have two handed weapons or ballistic weapons
This isn’t the captain, regular ogres start with sword and board, you can upgrade them to Two handed weapons but they lose 1 point (I think) in defence but gain crushing strength 1, this makes them crushing strength 2 due to ogres already having crushing strength 1 (it does stack).
At last, a real ogre, just like the D&D ones !
People have to step out of the GW or WoW imagery…
I could not have said it better.
@brennon As far as I recall it is not Oger Army but Ogers in the human army – if they are used for something else in an other game system.
