My uncle quiting 40k so i get his armies ultra marines and orks. Thing is i dont like orks but he wants me take them hmm ill take marines repaint them to my blood angels but any ideas for orks? Forgot to mention both armies pushing around 2000 points.

Keep them as a guest army, for your group of friends to use as a change to their regular armies? Sell them? Donate them as an army to a local wargaming club?

Or learn to use them and play them yourself? Nothing wrong with using an entirely different type of army, you'll understand orks well, their strengths and weaknesses and be a greater player.

I fell in love with guard and sob. marines i got cause had cash to throw around. but orks i despise with fury.

Why?

Hmmm, I don't quite understand....
If you really don't like the Orks.. sell them? I mean there's a hefty chunk of models (for 2000 points) there and could sell for a couple of hundred bucks. Either that or keep them for a friend to play? Maybe even give them to a friend who plays orks??

Cheers,

Jack.

I'm always up for a gift of orks!!

"Despise with fury", just sounds like strong language* to use in reference to a fething Warhammer army if you ask me, but whatever.

*Just don't ask me for my opinion on Space Marines...


Anyway, not really sure why you hate them so much, but your only other options are to either 1) sell the army, 2) give them away, or 3) smash them to bits with a hammer since you "despise them with fury". I recommend making a video and posting it on YouTube if you go with option 3 since apparently anyone who burns/breaks models and makes a video of it is apparently awesome and gets more ass than anyone.

You should keep them for guests, give them to a friend that wants them, or sell them and buy some sisters.

Is it that your uncle with be pissed if you get rid of them? Sell them and get him something with the cash. Or part of the cash at least.

Put them up on the Dakka swap shop. You'll probably find someone willing to buy or trade them.

I think you missed this, raven322.

To clarify, would that be a Rule #5 reference, Iorek?

Exactly, Grizgrin.

Well hey if I can find it then so can everyone else! Huzzah!
