Taste the Lash! (Orc Units, Tactics, Etc)

I moved the discussion on rule variants for Trolls etc. to a new topic: Large Units, Red/Green Units

You're the man! The IT man!

Question regarding the cards Battle Lust and Frenzy.

Say it's the orc players turn and he has both of these cards in his hand.  He has two units close to death but wants them to go out with guns blazing.  Is this a legal move?  Could you play Battle lust and give both units a +1 hit die and also play Frenzy on both units during the movement and command phase?  Frenzy says that you may not play command cards while that unit is attacking or defending this turn so I'm not sure.

Yep, works fine.

Good to know.  Would the same go for the Rampage/Frenzy combo?  For an effective (+2) +1/+2 -1/-1?  and for that matter could you also slap a Lash on the unit for an effective (+3) +1/+2 -1/-1.  By the way the cards are worded it seems yes, but I would like to hear it from the rules guys.  I'm trying to develop a winning strategy with the Orcs.

Yeah, you can do some stacking with the Orcs, to say the least.

Yes that would be OK.  Extremely rare that you'd have all those cards in your hand at once, but OK.   Note, however, that you'd have to play Rampage by pitching a card to give the benefit to everyone, rather than just on the Frenzied unit, as when you play it on a single unit it's a red card, which Frenzy prohibits.
