Hey i wanna add a storm boyz squad in my army but im not sure how much they are in points. Could someone please help me out and give me an estimate of how many points a group of 16 storm boyz are?

Also, i know slugga boyz get 3 attacks, 4 on the charge (PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG). Ive heard storm boyz are also good attacking unit, so how many attacs would one storm boy get?

Thanks!

BUY THE CODEX!!!!!!

They are Space Marine-ish in cost and Slugga Boy-ish in attacks. For anything more than that, follow the uh, enthusiastically expressed advice above and buy the codex. How else are you going to play games anyway? (Well, there is a way, but let's not go there.)

Also, post in the right forum next time.

didn't Yak told you already that we won't tell you stuff like that.

you want to play orks. buy a codex like everybody else,

Hey i didnt want to know how many ewxact points they are or how many attacks they get, all i wanted was a rough estimate so i could get a rough idea of if i should put them!

Im just asking for help

The problem is that it makes you seem as if you haven't haven't read or aren't willing to pay for the codex, and this means two things: first, that you're not very serious about playing this game; second, that you're asking for copyrighted information that could get DakkaDakka in trouble should someone give it out to you. I know it seems like people are being rude, but forums have been shut down for that kind of infraction.

Dakka seems to have a lot of adults as opposed to other Warhammer boards (I'm looking at you, warseer) and we can be ridiculously serious about playing with our toy soldiers. When someone asks something that's pretty publicly known to be against proper etiquette the regulars will come down hard to make sure the offender is either scared away or has their uncouth behavior beaten out of him. There's a quote from the book Starship Troopers that one of our troopers used to use as a sig: "I was not making fun of you personally - I was heaping scorn on an inexcusably silly idea - a practice I shall always follow."

Im going to buy the codex and an army but i dont want to waste my money on buying stuff i wont need thats why im asking help from you guys.
I remember i got in trouble for asking for specific info like Initiaitive and points but this time i just wanted to know a rough estimate... But if even that is illegeal then ill stop but if its OK to get a rough estimate, please tell me

buy the codex then plan a army by posting ideas here please

Ork Guy, shouldn't my estimate be enough for your purposes? Cost-wise, think Marines; assault-wise, think normal Slugga Boyz.

Suffice it to say that they're rather good, and I don't think you'll regret buying them (unless you go crazy and buy three full squads, which you may well not use all the time).

Ye, your estimate was fantastic!
