When I first saw the picture, I was hoping the figure in the back was an owlbear. As I continued reading and looked through the new spoilers it was revealed it was an Owlbear. Needless to say, I am now super excited for this set. We also know that this faction pack is Wisdom, Strength and Constitution. It says so on the Wizards website. This page also has a pic of the whole thing unboxed (very small though). www.wizards.com/DnD/Product.aspx?x=dnd/p...

Why does Boardgamegeek have better info than the official Wizards of the Coast Dungeon Command Forum?

It would be great if we could get all the order cards and creature cards posted on this forum (or at least a link to them). However, I think that I know enough about the Blood of Gruumsh to know that I will want to buy at least two copies of the set. The fact that none of the creatures are dublicates is a huge draw. Also the miniatures seem to be painted superior to anything else of their kind. After all the last set was the best I have ever seen. That the next one will be even better seems to fit a developing pattern. But if you don't believe me, look at the often blury pictures and form your own conclusions.

A pretty good guess has been made on the contents of the set here boardgamegeek.com/thread/888455/pics-of-..., and it shows that there will be duplicates. Two Orc Archers and two Orcs Warriors with clubs or maces.

I cannot upload the picture because something is not working but you find it at amazon: www.amazon.de/gp/product/0786960426/ref=...Basically just search for the orc set. At amazon.de they have the picture of the unpacked orc pack (posted in this thread before) and when you click on it you can zoom pretty good. I could see the commander stats: Commander one has: 11 Morale 9 Leadership 3 Creature Hand ? Order Hand Commander two has: 15 !!! Morale 7 Leadership 3 Creature Hand 4 Order Hand I think that are interesting stats at least. I hope that the abilities are not bound to just the orc faction like the drow commander. Furthermore you can get a good impression of the large indoor tiles which look like they could be used for more defensive play.

I approve of all the doors on the tiles. And I noticed that two of the miniatures are the same.
And the names of the two commanders are
Lokar of the Stonelands (nine leadership)
Drogar, Eye of Gruumsh (15 moral)

Lokar of the Stonelands (nine leadership)
Drogar, Eye of Gruumsh (15 moral)
Right now:
Lolth has two commanders with specific creature types in their abilities (specialized commander).
Cormyr has one generic and one specialized.
Goblins has two generics.
Undead has one generic, one specialized.
It's anyone's guess but I would expect one generic commander and one specialized. If we consider the first 5 sets of DC as a conceptual block of sort, it's likely that given the above pattern they wanted roughly half the commanders to be generic (with abilities that do favor some playstyles but not tribal warband construction) and half to be specialized in a tribe of sort.
Drogar's ability is probably going to be very Orc oriented, given his title. Due to his high Morale I expect an ability that lets you spend Morale for something, like the Undead commander, and it's probably going to be offensive in nature to distinguish him from that commander (-1 Morale for +X melee damage from an Orc creature?).
Lokar has more chances of having a generic commander ability. If he is tribal then that means a slight imbalance towards tribal warband.
