Cost 4
Hp 25
Power 8 (lifelink)
Actions 2
Range 1
Armor 2/2
Speed 3
Spell resistance 25%
When this unit kills something, it gains +1 action, expiring at the start of your next turn. This means it can devastate swarms while recovering the attacks used to do so, as each attack adds another action if it kills something. 8 power is just enough to one shot wolves, and can reasonably be buffed to help wipe out skeletons or other cheap swarm units. Cast trample on him to add potential strikes.

Sounds like an undead unit, not a orc.
A demon or a soul consumer.

It's something like the zurgo. I think it's more orcish, though I considered undead.

This is a really cool counter to swarm armies for orcs. Orcs already have some solid swarm counters now, but this is really an anti-swarm lol.
I do not think it should have high armor though. Maybe 1/1, or 1/2?

Yeah, I was actually thinking maybe lose the armor entirely, since it has lifelink and potentially unlimited attacks per turn.

Wait a minute, if it gains turn for each kill. It would be dangerous on maps that has wildlife or rocks and buildings. Even more when wagon inside a weak enemy Army. It would be a Slaughter.

It replaces the turn used to attack, actually, and it expires by the next turn so it won't be a long term issue.
I say unlimited, but it's honestly limited by how many weak units it can reach in a single move.

As he is melee unit and can't move as i think after he moved once this is not so overpowered.

Nothing is limited if left to your imagination. By the way, it's your turn.

It would only be able to kill 4 units/turn max, and that is in a highly unlikely scenario Where your opponent stupidly surrounds him with elf druids or something

Actually, it is possible to give him trample, enemies on all sides to start with, then he moves to hit 3 more enemies, presumably with more killed by trample. Honestly a doubtful scenario, but a good way to launch a lot of strikes on one unit at the end of it.

Something like that. I don't care to find out what barbaric practice accounts for lifelink, but I'd imagine it isn't pretty. He's the next thing to a vampire for orcs.

I couldn't make a pixelated image of a stick figure for AoF if my life depended on it. That's my level of artistic ability.
