The orc is the second tier unit of the Plains faction in Heroes of Might and Magic for Game Boy Color, recruited from a stick hut. The orc is almost as strong as the archer, lacking 2 Attack points, 4 shots, having 1 extra point in Defense and being cheaper by 10 gold than it's Human equivalent. The orc is a good shooter to begin with, but if trolls are available, one single such unit is better than 5 prcs due to it's ability to regenerate and its high Attack skill. If ogres are in the Barbarian's end game army, orcs can be in it too, since they are just as slow as the ogres.
