Dragon Ogors weapons

[Kasabar]

Dragon Ogors wepons    Glaive or crusher?

I like the damage of the Crushers, but a unit of 6 will need the Glaive so they can fight easier. 

Or should just run them in units of 3?

Against a 5+ armor save a single dragon ogre, unbuffed does:

Paired Ancient Weapons: ~1.77 damage

Draconic War Glaive: ~1.48 damage (rend is included in this)

Draconic Crusher: ~1.77 damage

 

My 2¢:

In units of 3 the Ancient Weapons are the best choice as more dice is more reliable and the average damage output is the same. That said if you have any ability to buff the number of attacks the Crusher will outpace the paired weapons as each individual attack is stronger. 

In units of 6+, the Glaive becomes better as the 2" reach offsets the lower damage.

I prefer the Glaives personally, they are their only weapon with rend and have a 2 inch range. Unless you play in majority against Nighthaunt who ignore rend
