Summary
A scrap-armoured Orc faction for Game Master: Green, White and Black Orcs, roaring Flesh-Saw fighters, crude guns, Warbasha, an armoured troll, Scrap Walker and Wallbreaker artillery.
Official Workshop description
Grimdark Horde brings a scrap-armoured Orc faction to Game Master and scenario makers. Find its units under the Grimdark Horde faction filter. The Horde fights other factions and allies with Creature Melee AI creatures.
THE WARBAND
Twelve outfits across three families: Greenskin Runner, Scrapper, Spike-Yoke, Plated Brute and Bannerboss; White Orc Hunter, Bone-Plate and Lacquer Guard; Black Orc Iron-Clad, Plague-Helm, Brute and Chieftain. Each family has distinct armour, skin and loadouts.
FLESH-SAWS
Green, White and Black Orc Flesh-Saw specialists carry a roaring chain blade in blackened steel with exposed teeth and a red saw-ring skull. Find all three by searching Flesh-Saw in Game Master. Family groups include one in each 4-unit formation and four in each 16-unit formation.
WEAPONS AND VOICES
Fitted saw swords and Atris axes, plus nine crude guns: pistols, twin pistols, long gun, mag gun, axe gun and flamethrower. Guns fire projectiles along their barrels in short bursts; melee uses Creature Melee AI blade contacts. Non-verbal war cries, efforts, pain, death and laughter accompany the fighting. Reload animations are not included.
CREATURES AND MACHINES
Warbasha is a drum-thumping brute armed with two spiked clubs. The Armoured Troll carries a massive greatsword. The Scrap Walker combines an enlarged mech, an Orc pilot and a recoiling cannon. The Wallbreaker artillery gun supports a player gunner or an AI crew firing at distant targets.

Arma Reforger 1.9 update: Grimdark Horde works on game version 1.9 again. Version 1.9 changed a game function that the orcs' melee recovery builds on, so every game or server with Grimdark Horde loaded failed to start. Update Creature Melee AI to 1.8.18 as well.
