Use them to counter other strong melee units. Some also have melee-focused skills like Charge Defence.

They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets. In a hulking Black Orc with unmatched fighting skills and ferocity it has marked out Grimgor for greatness the prophet and harbinger of Gork (or Mork). This unquenchable thirst for battle is a sign that marks out a Warboss for leadership, a sign that the Orc is favoured by Gork (or Mork).

No one knows for sure what would happen if three days without a battle ever occurred, but even scarred veterans tremble just to think of it. Two days without a battle and Grimgor would smite anything he could reach, save (perhaps) his fellow Black Orcs. If a single day went by without a battle, Grimgor was known to start camp-decimating arguments, his one good eye blazing with eagerness to find fault and start a good scrap. Even for a Black Orc, Grimgor's thirst for war was exceptional.
