#22700, "Orc Chieftan power/edge"


          

So I was thinking... since an orc chieftan should be an intimidating figure, why not give them the ability to order their horde to walk 1 space away from them?

For example.......

Order horde w

*Orc Chief #123105 orders the horde west, with the blare of trumpets they tentatively step forward*.


It would have a saving throw of some of the members of the horde disbanding and leaving (im thinking 1/2 the time), while the other 1/2 the horde would move into position...

This could also come with an edges that would make the success rater higher...

under what circumstances, for what strategic reasons would the orc want to do that?

Not sure if this is what the OP was getting at but maybe it could be used to set a trap for someone then if they think the orc doesn't have a horde with him.
