Orc

Ocs are an irascible and warlike race who rarely shy away from a fight and delight in seeing their enemies fall.

Orc Traits

Attribute Score Increase. Your Population score increases by 2 and your Economy score increases by 1.

Relentless Endurance. Once per battle, when one of your units drops to 0 hit points and breaks, you can choose to immediately drop the broken condition and have that unit regain 3 HP.

Untapped Wealth. Orcs choose two of the following resources: coal, jade, oil, salt, sulfur, and tin.

Warrior Culture. Orcs view war as a natural extension of the diplomatic process. When you make a major declaration of war on an NPC realm, you only take half stability damage.

Orc Units

Many orc units are incensed when faced with defeat. These units gain a +2 bonus to their attack rolls when they have less than full hit points.
