** The Greenskins (a.k.a. {{O|urOrcsAreDifferent}}rcs and [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent Goblins]]) take to this trope more than any other race. They're an entire species of vicious {{Blood Knight}}s who live only to fight and are just barely advanced enough to fashion crude weapons and "tame" large, nasty animals for war. The closest to organized they get is when a particularly nasty warlord can force a bunch of tribes together into a giant Waaagh! and head on a bloodthirsty rampage towards the nearest civilization. These hordes are just barely kept together by the warlord's force of will, and those that don't dash themselves to pieces against particularly tough targets usually only hang together as long as the boss can keep a steady stream of interesting fights coming -- if momentum starts to slack, the Waaagh! quickly disintegrates as bored Orcs start turning on each other or simply wander off.

* ''VideoGame/ArmiesOfExigo'': The Beasts are a loose cofederation of savage Beastmen storming in from the plains, hellbent on overrunning civilisation, and relying on brute force over all else. Ironically enough though, in [[GameplayAndStorySegregation gameplay terms]], the Elitist nature of their army means they are the faction that is the ''least'' likely to rely on horde-style tactics, favouring smaller armies of powerful units over the ZergRush tactics of the Empire or early Fallen.

They come sweeping down from the mountains like an avalanche, or surging from the deep forest like a tide of vermin. They come from across the sea in their [[HornyVikings dragon-prowed ships]], or storming from the [[{{Mordor}} forsaken wastes]] that no other men can dwell in. They come to RapePillageAndBurn, [[ScreamingWarrior howling like demons]], and leave only death and despair in their wake. They waylay travelers, ransack peasant villages, and even lay siege to the great bastions of kings. They take only what {{plunder}} and [[MadeASlave slaves]] they can carry, and torch and butcher the rest. Woe upon us, The Horde has arrived.

* ''TabletopGame/{{Ironsworn}}'': One Truth the player can select for the Ironlands' backstory is that its inhabitants are all refugees fleeing the Skulde, a massive barbarian horde that annihilated every country of the Old World. One story hook is that one of their ships has arrived on shore...

* ''VideoGame/AtomRPG'': The Army of Barzhukan is a horde of barbarous and brutal people coming from the Wastelands are led by Barzhukhan, a religious and martial leader. He created a CultOfPersonality to control his vast horde of fanatical barbarians who are devastating the Wastelands; his mythos even has its own sacred text that's read and studied by his followers.

The third standard MedievalEuropeanFantasy government alongside TheGoodKingdom and TheEmpire, The Horde is a large group of barbaric or beastly warriors bound either through tribal ties (if decentralized) or the will of TheWarlord or EvilOverlord (if centralized). Like the ProudWarriorRaceGuy, they value strength above all else, but are usually nowhere near as honorable. Their leader is usually [[AsskickingLeadsToLeadership the strongest, toughest, most vicious or cunning of the group]], often because the fastest way to advance through the ranks is to [[KlingonPromotion kill your superiors]].
