I find the Force Organisation Chart very helpful, without it I would be completely lost, thats one of the reasons why I gave up on Lord of the Rings, the armies have no structure, and without that, I find it very difficult to make decisions on what to field.

Keep it, what you have suggested is basically the same thing. It would make sense, but people are basically taking that for most games anyway now.

Drop the FOC.
Do not implement your idea.
All troops are not created equal, therefore your mandatory 4 is worse than the current requirement.

You're insane. That is far worse. I don't even take 4 troops choices in some 2000 point games.

The FOC allows for game balancing. Do you honestly want to face an IG army composed solely of Baneblades, being lead by the Fortress of Arrogance. If you think of the way armies would turn out, it would be a disaster for GW, its the gaming equivalent of printing more money to solve inflation. Instead of selling many different products, GW would sell say just Land Raiders, Baneblades and the other massively scary gak. 1 HQ and 4 Troops! Like what the hell? Brother SRM wrote:You're insane.

Seconded.

Also littlenibbler Orks aren't about armour saves.
Orks are about having too many models on the table, and wasting the other guy's time with your movement phase.
Orks are about having the toughest units on the table.
Orks are about not caring about how many bodies are left in a long winding trail until the squad is down to less than a third its starting strength.
Orks are about rolling more dice then you can count without the aid of a calculator or a pen and paper.
Orks are about having totally fething insane characters tearing gak down like Doc Grotsnik, Ghazghkull or Snikrot.
Orks are about being too fething awesome to die...

No, because 40k is a lot more flexible and it would be a lot more broken.
