1 Mage Level 2, Power Stone, Jewel of Dusk, and Talisman of Protection
3 RBTs
20 Archers, banner and Musician

Im by no stretch of the imagination an experienced player, and having only played orcs once i have little information about them but I think if your not using a great eagle your giving yourself problems. If you send those eagles toward the night goblins the fanatics will trigger before she wants them and that is gonna save you alot of problems compared to if you just charge a unit into them, but aside from that I have little else to contribute.

Quite a useful contribution though. Baiting Eagles for the win!

Your list looks a little short of troops for me. What magic does your opponent tend to run?
