We were going to save these for the next batch of Fantasy releases but I know that a lot of people have been asking for them so I thought I'd pop them out as their own release instead!
The original Night Orc sculpts have been tidied up a little and then Techno has added a few extras to give us 3 spearmen and 3 archers, combined with a leader for both packs. These were always a popular little range so it's nice to have them back online!

Yeah, they're orcs hired for a one-day raid with no promise of further employment. :P
At last!
Last three on the 2nd row of spearmen ... replace the spears with guitars and bass; last row of spearmen - replace with drumsticks .. the Orc Beatles!
Singing "Norwegian Wood-Elf". "Here comes the sun ... so we're back to the burrows". "Lucy in the sky with Dryads". "I am a Taurus".
Nobby - GET OUT....

And chew Steve's Coat on the way :P
Just a few thoughts!
Firstly, my compliments on some EXCELLENT new sculpts!
Second was: On 'NIGHT ORCS'... absolutely no idea what Night Orcs 'are', but...THEY would make wonderful 'DESERT' 'creatures' in 'sandy' robes... to pit against 'Crusaders'...or Romans / Greeks/ Samurai / Victorian Brits... etc. ... 'blundered into 'the wrong place'...! AND that The bow figure with bow in right hand... with a little 'fun' work, would make a great 'sword weilder'!
'Various' other 'creatures' could make 'natural hazards' for all! (And I LOVE the Gargoyles... denizens of 'Their' rocky outcrop... !). (Just WHERE did Medieval Cathedral carvers, 'get' the idea from, anyway???).
Maybe, a 'DESERT' theatre, might be a refreshing 'change' for fantasy players?
Sadly, my BIG box of 10mm Fantasy... (after some initial 'interest' following 'LOTR' DVDs... 'The Hobbit' films rather 'killed' it! :( )... is somewhere under 'the Piles'! But thought that the concept might be of interest... so, whilst 'drinking my breakfast'... ! LOL!

They could make some very small additions to your orc clan Ian ... let us not be sizist about our Orcs now :D
I think they could also be very nice 'cultists' (a bit like the dreaded Crusader Assassin cult) as well ... of the desert variety of course and you could even have a hermit type converted to be stat up a pole in meditation.
Ooooo! I think I just got promoted ... and I have the Night Orcs to thank for that.
Desert based fantasy games are definitely a thing, GW's Tomb Kings are themed around ancient Eygpt are perhaps the original
I've got an Arab army, using lots of the TB Line figures, which is a mishmash of Arab, Ottoman, Arabian Knights, Saracen etc
Congratulations Colonel Big Insect
Who promoted Mr Fry. Think I'll have to covene a court martial. Congrats Mark

I like this idea....I have lots of crusaders and saracens, some sort of rift in space time, the legions of darkness start pouring through across the region. Can the humans put aside their differences to face down the evil hordes together, or will they continue to fight over scraps while the end comes? Throw in some undead, orcs, goblins, all with a bit of a middle east/north african theme. Interesting...filed away as a future project potential, thanks. I note there are "sand orcs" in the old fantasy range too.
Congrats on the promotion, Mark ! :-bd
Cheers - Phil :)
