So basically, i have a pile of old gorkamorka trukks that just don't do it justice anymore now that the orks have a majassive new trukk. so i've been thinking of ways of using these old models.

I christen them... "dakka trukks", basically an upgunned version of a warbuggy, with between three and five heavy weapons on it.

they wont be twin linked, but they will be fun!!

any tips on how much they should cost? I reckon 60pts for a trukk av 10/10/10 with three big shoota's on it, and +10pts for another two big shoota's

then we could have a "tankbusta trukk" for 80pts with +15 for another two rokkit launcha's

think this is fair??

so 108 people have looked at this thread...and no one's commented!! just wait till you see the pics...

Looking forward to pics Three and five is not that orky thought... perhaps thirty and fifty?

i think that would be very fair considering if there not lucky be mowed down by the other army

I'm gonna get my camera out now and take a photo to show what i'm talking about...

erm...bad news about the camera....its not working right now...but i shall try to fix it and get them posted by tonight!

I'd just add an orky weapon and call it a "buggy".

Slap a twin-linked big shoota on it or whatever.


I have three of them in my IG army carrying autocannons and "counting as" sentinels with rough terrain mods and autocanons.

Before that, in a previous games club, several of us called them "Geeps" (General Purpose Mobile vehicles) and used them as small, fast transports that could hold 5 men (so, centaurs before their time).

I'd say you have the makings for a Flakkatrakk or two, which are the Orky AA vehicles. Their guns are actually quite frightening, especially with a co-axial weapon to guide them. Great for blowing Mech Eldar out of the sky in smaller games, or taking out flyers in larger ones.

Check out Apocalypse:Reloaded for details. (Jeebus, I sound like a shill for GW. I only encourage people like that for conversions, I swear!)

well you can use the vehicle creation rules then it would be totally legal to use your dakka trukks. i think its a cool idea. good luck
