Look at all that plastic...

One question, what did you roll for the Trukk's ramshackle tests? Seems like you just picked them up.

these pictures would be nicer of all of models are painted...

anyway, it was a nice battle and report. it seems was a close call for orks in the first few turns. they almost dead when all 3 trukks are destroyed. nonetheless thanks to Teraka's lead Maganobz hold them back and push'em forward, then stompped the SM leader and those Emperor's finest boyz.

your Ork army can still stomp hard, even if the SM side deploys LRC and other armored units such as vindicators.

I was playing Ultramarines.

This was the game that caused the Waagh debate. I did not expect Ghazghkull to not have to roll a D6 for run after reading his rule myself.

And yes my opponent forgot his first 2 ramshackle tests he kept forgetting his rules and I play orks too but i only started and i dont use trukks.

I am a fan of playing lots of games in the 'plastic' phase while I paint mobs up so you can see how large you would like to run them, what special options to give them, etc.

Thanks for the report. That was some serious carnage.

Ya I'm just kidding ya. If I had a nickel for every time I played a game with a fully (even mostly) painted army, I'd have 0 nickels.

That's too bad the poor storm boyz couldnt get into the krumpin. I've never been a fan of ds'ing with jump infantry when can they move so fast anyway. Seems like an unneccesary risk. To potentially lose the whole unit versus lose a couple to shooting.

thats been a right slobbaknocka of a battle!

I agree, i assemble my men, give them the weapons they need, and then paint them between fights, if i waited for my force to be fully painted before i gamed with them then i would need to live 100 years+, im a slow painter!

To be honest the flat gray on nice terrain looks way better than partially painted on nice terrain, or badly painted on bad terrain. Not as good as nicely painted on nice terrain, but it has the benefits of looking coherent and easy to spot in the pictures.

Whoot plastic and metal vs plastic and metal

Why do you not have sternguard.
