BUILDING A CORE ARMY

Each of the varied Warhammer races has a certain set of units around which the rest of the army is built. These units are commonly referred to as the "Core" of an army. The Core of the army generally represents a solid block of Core choices from the army book along with the army General, army standard, and perhaps a sorcerer or hero. Every time the army marches to war, this Core army is inevitably present. Presented below is what a Orc and Goblin Core army, without any Magic Items, generally consists of.
