Orc Raider (CR 3)
Orc Raiders are possibly the most common sort of orcs encountered by adventurers, since Orc Raiders are the ones that leave their rude villages and go out to actively seek victims, treasure, and glory. Orc Raiders are quite fearless and smart enough to fight in deadly fashion. They will use cover and ranged attacks before they charge into battle with blood-curdling howls of killing glee.
Orc Raiders are a deadly menace to frontier towns and settlements, and their accuracy with their thrown axes is legendary.

COMBAT TACTICS
Orc Raiders are savage attackers and raiders from the wildlands. In combat, they will stay at range for as long as possible, hurling axes with deadly effect thanks to their Killer's Eye and using five foot steps to creep within charging range. Once they have taken some damage and softened up their foes, they will charge into melee combat using their melee charge move bonus and use their Warrior's Surge to heal themselves for the coming battle. Orc Raiders are savage fighters and will try to position themselves so they can use their Combat Reflexes to make as many attacks of opportunity as possible. They fight to the death without hesitation.
