Who the hell do you give kick to? I would never give it to a BoB but the Blitzers have other skills I'd prefer to have - Guard, Mighty Blow, Tackle, Standfirm, etc etc

Defensive lineups are 4 BoBs, 4 Blitzer, 2 Linemen and a Troll. Do you take kick on a lino and put the weakest BoB on the line?

I've had average success without kick but I really do think it can make a difference at the margins. So it might not be a dilemma at all if Orcs are the one team you forgo kick on but I don't start at that position.

If you take kick, do so on a line orc

I agree with your rant about Orcs having stupid-many positionals.

Then on a Thrower or a Blitzer, there are not many other possibilities.

Throwers, on defense? Pshaw.

Maybe if one gets to Legend...I'll take it on a Blitzer

With 4 Blitzers you have enough space for a few utility skills. You can also put a BoB on the los if you prefer and give it to a lineman.

The few times I've seen Kick on an orc team, it was either on a lineman and they put their least experienced BoB on the LOS; or they put Kick on a Thrower and leave something on the bench.

Well, if you take it, you take it on a lineorc or the leader caddy/thrower.

But that's not really an issue since well, Orcs can afford to (and often should) vary their defensive LOS based on who they're facing. Sure against high tv CPOMB you just stick whatever you can afford to lose on the line, but against other opposition you might want to put some ST up there and tie up players, or otherwise make your opponent work a bit more.

Lineorcs don't always have to be on the line, and sometimes black orcs want to start in the scrum.

Why would you not put your BoBs on the line?

I take Kick on Blitzers.. Usually its with a Mighty Blow, Tackle, Blitzer.

Once I took it on a Throw-Orc, but Id rather have a fouling Lineman on the field
