Are warclans meant for over 2000 point games?

Meta shifts and new books come out at a pretty decent pace so this question won’t have a 100% answer. I’d always recommend building what you like the look of for this reason.

I just ripped up the hands on 30 arrowboyz and gave them Spears and Shields.

If you can magnatize everything you should but I have never been bothered to do that.

I would recommend building all the big stabbas you can. Build the boyz as moarboyz and the Boars as Maniaks. 1 tip is to use super glue not plastic glue on the hands and they can be changed easily if you change your mind.

Thank you for the advice man. Especially on the super glue and plastic glue.

You are right on the boarboys. Especially since it always seems like its the boars themselves that do the heavy lifting, so the spear bonuses are just an extra benefit.

As for normal orruks... my rule is chompas for msu, spears for large bricks.

Thanks again for the tips. I'll keep this mind as I grow the army. I'm enjoying the theme of them so far.

Morboys have better offense, orruks have a bit better survivability. Same with boarboys and maniaks, but boarboys can have a closer damage output thanks to them retreating and re-charging each turn.  You can play some fun tricks with them and catch your opponent flat footed some times.

Big stabbas are very worth it. They are the armies main source of quality damage. What I did is buy a box of boys and made 15 of them and two big stabbas. That way I knew 2 boxes would net me my unit of 30, I would get 4 big stabbas, and I would have a few spares for whatever... 

Thank you for the advice I appreciate it. I was also wondering on the weapon choices between chompas & stikkas for boarboys & orruks.

Is the extra 2 inches worthwhile for orruks? Or is it better to stick with chompas?

For boarboys it seems using stikkas is more beneficial than chompas since they gain the +1 damage to monsters.

I just started my first army and it's bonesplitterz. I have a few questions.

Is there a preference between Morboys & Orruks? Boarboys & Maniaks? 

Are Big Stabbas worth putting together? Wish GW would package the big stabbas separately.
