Oo that's awesome, also a reason why I love orks, you can custom make models because, orks!
Speaking of custom making stuff, I hear about this "looted" rule for vehicles and stuff, where can I find it?

"Looted Wagon" a unit from the last Codex that was brought back by popular demand, rules are in one of the White Dwarf issues.

As for the hidden strong units, i'd point out stormboyz. They're underrated and rarely seen on tables at all. But i run a unit of 10+pk bp nob with my footsloggas and am quite happy with what they do. The thing is that if you're playing speed freaks, there's nothing bikes can't do better than stormboyz other than moving over impasable terrain. Bikes are tougher, shootier, can go 24' per turn, cost just 2 times more and are 4 times more durable. However, when you're playing footslogas, you don't have to rush foorward to be there turn 2. So, you can position your stormboyz where they're needed the most and hide if needed. Ad than they perform a charge on the WAAAGH for 12' + 2d6' + 2d6' with 'ere we go. That's 24-27' reliable charge range which is ~7' longer than biker's and doesn't need to go around impassable terrain on the first 12' which is quite handy for a hidden squad.

Pssssssst. The Battlewagon+upgrade kit gets you a Battlewagon and four big guns if you're smart enough to model.

No! No, I didn't mean it! Oh god they're in my house, it's the GW police!

I take it back! Buy all the guns! Only official models! Never scratch build anything-aaaaaaaaaarrgggh

I'm just worried about them not being legal in use for games at my FLGS or something

**some bloke**

I think the current measure is 60% GW parts. making them from a trukk will generally be seen as clever and cool. if it's looked at with disdain, then no real loss - it means it's not a FLGS, merely a LGS.

**cosmicsoybean**

True enough, I live like, an hour away in a different town then the FLGS anyways, so mostly playing vs my friends.

Hey guys, I made a thing! I tried my hand at my kitbashing for the first time (its really bad, I know) and made a mortor cart, which ill use for a Mek gun, maybe wagon when I get the parts to add wheels and fill the gaps with GreenStuff
