Orc Boar Boy Big 'Uns

are a melee cavalry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer.
== Recruitment ==
* Unlocked with: Boar Penz or Pig Jousting Arena
== Description ==
The war boar is a stubborn and vicious animal that stands nearly as tall as a horse and is considerably bulkier. It is an extremely tough beast that is notoriously bad tempered, loudly flatulent, unpredictable and wholly dangerous. These are just the sort of qualities that Orcs greatly admire, so it was only natural for them to adopt war boars as their mounts. When the beasts lower their tusks and charge, they can crack open a battle line as easily as a well-placed choppa blow can tear apart a foe's rib cage.

== Strategy ==
The heavy cavalry anti-cavalry of the Greenskins, Boar boy big 'uns are ok at their role. They have poor melee stats, no shield, low speed for cavalry, and middling armour. Their benefits are their charge bonus, armour piercing damage, and bonus vs. large. This makes them good for charging large armoured targets, although they will not excel if left in combat for too long. They are perhaps best used in tandem with the plethora of light cavalry the Greenskins have access to. For example tie an enemy down with Goblin Wolf Riders, before charging them with the boars. Alternatively, use Forest Goblin Spider Riders to poison an enemy and level the enemies melee stats to the boars level.
