Point is that all melee units have +30%dmg and orcs great speed and initiative from Moldok, mass haste and in first turn your units are making havoc in enemy lines. With warrior counterstrike+frenzy skill it gets really interesting

Shrek build? How can you call it a Shrek build when you don't even have an OGRE in it!
But yes, hasted Orcs with Adrenaline was quite a deadly mix with Moldok. Orc veterans were so good, I even used them to No-Retaliate Driller. Woot!
Of course, I'm splitting hairs, but the battle axe only offers 20% damage to melee units (if you had 2 of them 40%!), and sadly, Shrek would not have been included in that offering

It only worked on a moderate large selection of level 1-4s including the Orc Veteran.
There was a berseker axe which offer 30% critical chance to axe wielding enemies only. Great for demons and goblins. By the way, in WotN it works for... JARLs. Yeah. I had 99% crit chance jarls. But they were too slow... my horsemen was still generally better.
