Are you a new player? There is no need to read the entire thread! Just jump to the last page and ask away!
If you have things you think should be added to this post, PM me.
'Humies is all weak scum that deserve ta get stomped. 'Cept for One-Eye Yarrick. He knows how ter fight."
I know, us orks don't like rules, but a couple of things should be said before starting:
- Tactics means trying to win the game with kunnin'. I know there are a lot of players who just want to toss some dice, watch their beautiful converted models, re-enact battles from the fluff and don't really care about who wins the game. I'm sure you are having great fun in your games, but your strategies might not work for someone facing optimized armies.
- It's safe to assume that the vast majority of games will be using the newest FAQs, points, matched play and data slates. Please don't base tactics on not using the most recent rule set.
- If you are looking for narrative advice, specifically say so. Unless stated otherwise it is assumed that current matched play mission pack is used to play.
- Keep in mind that not everybody has access to forgeworld models or rules.
- Legend rules are allowed in most places, but meant to enable people to play their old models. They have no place in competitive events. Don't suggest tactics based on legends entries unless around the person in specifically looking for such advice.
- Be clear about whether you are discussing army composition (looking for the best options), or whether you simply want to use a unit in an efficient way, even if it's not the best choice.
- Clarify whether you are discussing regular Matched Play or Tournament rules where it matters.
- There are communities and tournaments that do not allow certain things. The people looking for advice here cannot change that, so accept that they have to work around those limitations.
- Do not discuss GW's...

Didn't show holofields but that's probably a dramatic concession as otherwise there would just be a blur of kaleidoscopic color.
I count 6 Imperial Thunderbolts and 1 Hydra quad autocannon turret clearly being destroyed and not counting burning wreckage to avoid double counting. 0 Eldar casualties.

I'm going on a journey through time, ranking every 40k starter and launch set! With pre-orders for Armageddon just around the corner, I thought it was the perfect moment to pause and look back at everything that came before. I'll tell you where we think Armageddon stands compared to all the previous 40k starter and launch sets, share our favourite starter sets from nearly 40 years of Warhammer, and show you our collections of lovingly painted starter set miniatures: https://taleofpainters.com/2026/06/ranking-every-40k-starter-set-plus-our-thoughts-on-armageddon/
What's your ranking? Do you also have the 2nd Edition starter set on the second-to-last place or is it just my trauma of saving for ages for this box as a teenager, couple of months before it got replaced with 3rd Editon? :D

The world's of Warhammer are much smaller now, the imaginative infinity within the players mind is reduced by the focus on product.
When gw had little to sell, Evocative words that powered the imagination is what they sold.
Everything felt bigger, more unknowable when it was from textual inference and ambiguity.
But as their product line expanded it put perceived boundaries on that scope. Now instead of unknown regiments it's all about known ones. And with official models they now have elevated importance beyond the unknown ones.
This is a kind of corporate flanderisation where the more they create things they need to sell, the less thing without tangible products disappear. Which over simplifies the world and reduces it's grandeur

Fear is one of the strongest and most important emotions. Any of the current Big 4 is emboding it - and it cannot be reduced to emotions which are embodied by them (no, Khorne is not god of fear, just because victims are afraid of his worshippers - he is actually god of bravery and he doesn't want his sacrifices to be afraid of him, he wants them to be slaughtered asap). And he would be an obvious patron for the Night Lords.
