I looked at the rules for mass combat in the dungeon master guide but its confusing. I plan on running a war game which has hordes of orcs figting. If any can better explain mass combat rules or if you have a easy to understand rule system please reply.

There was an Unearthed Arcana about mass combat a couple of years ago that has some interesting ideas.
