So you'd have five orcs, or 3 orcs and an elite orc, or a single orc solo. It was meant to be a monster that challenged the party like a group of 5 monsters. But they were vulnerable to being stunlocked initially, and didn't have extra actions (beyond action points), so they couldn't really do the same damage as five separate monsters.</blockquote>
