Depends on how you're playing - If you're all playing as a team, you share a combined life total and the horde attacks all of you. (2-headed giant style)

If you're playing separate, it would most likely be a choice made at random. The horde has no brain, and can't choose who to attack, after all.

Do they just attack every turn no matter what

I could probably do that some some time with my zombies (I don't have the pig horde built yet). It might be tough figuring out priority and stuff with the players all going at once, but I'm sure we could figure out how to run it.
id like to get a game of this going

Yup. All creatures controlled by the horde attack if able.

Bird (and anyone else interested) - I'll post a sign up post in wall games later tonight or tomorrow morning with details :)

I bring your attention to the "My friend, don't be a jerk." rule. Bringing specific cards or decks just because they are strategically designed to hate/screw the horde is not allowed. All you're doing is ruining everyone's fun, including your own.

As for proxies, I don't see anything wrong with a proxy or two, as long as it isn't violated the above rule.

Edit: signups open, and wall games post up with more info!

How is the hoard defeated? Milling out or does it have a life total?

Milled.

How does blocking for the hoard work?

It shouldn't come up, as all creatures attack if able, enter tapped, and no vigilance is present. If somehow a creature is untapped and a creature attacks the horde, it's a houserule situation. You can have it brainless (blocks at random) or for more difficult game, the hoard will make the most intelligent block possible.

Would {crawl space} be considered jerk? If the horde is randomly attacking? I like to think of it as a narrow funnel . I hear it worked great for the Spartans!
