Along with Bahgtru
The Orc Warrior, Gunthar is always a safe bet and I usually
keep him throughout the entire game. Why? His thrown
attribute is so valuable. It basically gives him two attacks
per turn -- a thrown and a melee attack.
For the most part Bahgtru and Gunthar are basically the same.
However, Bahgtru's random fighter pick makes his value a little
unpredictable. Gunthar, on the other hand, always gets the
Might skill so he is a sure thing. Give him a +6 enchanted axe,
and at Demi-God level he will have thrown attacks of 20 followed
by melee attacks around 40! (with enchantments like Giant
Strength and other magical items which boost his attack
strength.)
I strongly recommend Gunthar The Barbarian to anyone.
