Hi, I'm new to 40k and I'm planning to get assault on

reach (lol). I just want to know a few things
1. Can I replace the ork warboss with ghazghkull thraka?
2. Will I have to collect both armies?
3. Are their any cool people (besides me) who play 40k (joke

)

**Coolyo294**

1) You can if you want.
2) No. But if you don't want the Marines, you can send them to me.
3) Yes.

**Ma55ter_fett**

Yes
No, but you can convert the dreadnaught into a deff dread if you feel up to it.
yes, but it may be a bit hard to find someone in your area. Try using the "find a game" section of the forums.

Oh yeah, and don't get me wrong, I like marines. Its just that I'm worried about the

cost to collect 2 armies

**Coolyo294**

Excellent...

**Imagine727**

That's not his paint scheme, it's the Evil Sunz clan paint scheme.

Thank you...(who does he think he is, the

No, that other one, the cheeky piece of

Oh and whats the biggest non vehicle ork model?

**Coolyo294**

Probably Ghazzy or a Meganob.

**Imagine727**

I plan on making a special suit of mega armour about the size of a nemesis dreadknight:

**Coolyo294**

I think it would make a better Deff Dread then a suit of Mega armor.

**Imagine727**

Oh and on another note, anyone else notice how hench orks are? I mean come on, they got biceps and triceps and all that. Man, I wanna know their routine

**Coolyo294**

They're born that way.

**Imagine727**

wish I was

2. They look amazing
3. Could they every take on ghazzy and win
4. Are they the most Intelligent Orks

can I get some answers?

**EagleArk**

You cant have more than 2 HQ`s in your army (Big meks, warbosses. ect) But lots of builds are floating round with a mek with a kff, because it gives all ork models cover saves, which makes your very flimsy stuff a lot more survivalbility! (oh god the spelling)

**Imagine727**

Thanks, and if its only 2 then shall I get Ghazzy and a mek, Ghazzy and a weird boy or just get all the HQ'S I want and alternate between them to match different opponents?

**Nightfall**

its nice too build on both armies because if some one ants too play with you, you have two decent sized armies

**Imagine727**

This is what I want to have by the end of the year in Orks:
20-40 boyz
10 nobz
5 mega armoured nobz
Ghazzy
Big mek with kk
10 lootas/burna boyz

So could you tell me how this would transfer into points?

**EagleArk**

i will, give me 5 mins

**Imagine727**

k

**EagleArk**

I will if i can find my ork dex.

**Imagine727**

Oh yeah, I might get a codex when I next go to the store, best to have one before I buy loads of stuff.

**Commisar Wolfie**

Big Meks are always useful. I personelly Love fielding a big mek with shokk attack gun. They are just so awseome. Also if you look at my trade thread I have a bunch of ork stuff up for trade/sell. some of which it looks like you want. Hit me up and we can prolly work something out.

Getting a codex is pretty important, and necessary to play the game. I'd get one before you start playing regularly.

**Imagine727**

**dajobe**

everyone is right, codexs=good. Shock attack guns rule(2D6 strength, that is the most orky thing evar! plus, if you roll good, it can get S12, AP 2, in a large ordinance blast!!)
