According to Nemesis Crown Black Orc max Toughness is 6.
In the Ultimate Mordheim rulebook it says 5.

Which is correct? I would think 5 makes more sense.

Welcome! Smile

The Nemesis Crown supplement would be correct. The Ultimate Mordheim rulebook is simply a compilation of rules (and maybe house rules) while the NC supplement is the original source of the rules for Black Orcs.

No, I mean 5.

Still running it. I got a lil fluff on it in the fluff section, wanting to do more on it.

The Black Orc warband has been my most successful so far, Spades the One-Armed horned orc is a beast.

Mutated orcs are fun!

[EDIT] Honestly though, they may be overpowered if T6 is the max...

I was planning on building a Black orc warband since this afternoon... my brother is also going to... (where did i get the idea???).

I needed an evil warband... and this one seemed nice... so i painted my first Black orc... and it can also be used as an hired sword (black orc overseer)!

T=6..... sounds NICE!!!

Hehe, I guess T6 would be okay on ONLY your black orcs (start with 3, Max 5 if you take the money and time to make your youngins black orcs)....

Yes. Black orc rarity is part of the warband and only the starting Heroes are or can be black orcs. The rest of the orcs in the warband are normal orcs.

I agree that 5 makes more sense. Its also a more balanced way to play the warband.

Who wrote it anyway?
