oldzoggy, you are right, no more 7.0 edition nerfs. Get ready for the all new 7.5 dition nerfs.

Grots are now 10 ppm with no changes!
Shootas are now S4, AP5 Assault 1!
Orks now have to make a roll on a random table to see what they can do each phase!

Seriously just add the things up.

- IA 8 is out of production
- Ghaz update doesn't make any sense.
- New ork "starter set" in the planning
- Campaign might include orks.

And now the codex oop.

Just concider a new release it suddenly would make GHAZ great and gives FW a good reason to release IA8.

The new ork starter set is out in the USA webstore.

You forgot the new update to Mob Rule: Roll a 6+: Unit is removed from play.

I figured they just finally realized that Orks can't read.

It's still available on the Australian and UK sites at least. You people are too damn jumpy for no reason. Yeah, they will totally squat one of their most iconic and best selling factions out of the blue, a faction that just recently got some re-releases of both models and a codex supplement. Jeez.

OP has a history of these sort of posts...

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

Just saw this on GW's site...not an update, but funny:

A huge range of 'orrible, stompy Orks, perfect for smashing in wimpy Tau faces.

It seems even GW has Tau Hate these days.

They don't hate Tau, they just are listening to the customer base on the internet. However, they keep buffing Tau because they see who is voting with their wallet also.

GW guy 1: They hate Tau! Quick post something Anti-Tau!
GW guy 2: But they're buying the Tau stuff off the shelves, won't that make them angry?
GW guy 1: Just make the rules better, trust me, the Tau guys are use to the hate and they'll get over it.

If hope is the only thing left in Pandora's Box, you have to realize that hope leads only to despair.

Too dam jumpy if this was SM all the rumor sites would have been spamming us about it for weeks now : P

Give the ork players some fun too.

I think the new starter he is refering too is the pain mob.

Thats no starter set. That is just a way to sell deffdreads and regular nobz.

Codex is in softback on UK site.

Just remember guys. It's Orks. The SM whipping boys. They don't get nice stuff.

Yeah...it's a Start Collecting set, hence starter set. It includes a formation within the box allowing a player who has the Start Collecting box and the Ork Codex to jump right into the game.

Vedros isn't out yet. Seriously people, does nobody read the actual information that gets posted by people who were at the Nuremburg Toy Fair(where Vedros was first shown)?
Their goal is to have them in toy stores/non-GW shops in November of this year. That's what the GW reps told interested parties.

Most likely just a soft back treatment... :/

As many problems as I have with this current rendition of the book, I would much rather have a new plastic warbuggy kit, a new (and serious) deffkopta kit, and a repackaging of the Mek Gunz kit with a plastic Lobba, Kannon, and Zzap gun piece.

Those aren't plastic already?

Not the Lobba, Kannon, and Zzap gun parts. You can convert plastic versions from the old battlewagon upgrade sprue, but they look pretty tiny inside the new Mek Gunz chassis casing. I have plenty of old metal lobbas, zzaps, and kannons, but I'd like an updated version to coincide with the new kit.

As for the Warbuggy kit, it is plastic but it's also old as dirt and the orks riding it are as tiny as guardsmen. It's a Gorkamorka kit.

They are switching the codex to softcover. I just ordered one through my FLGS a couple of weeks ago and he was told that the hard cover is no longer available.

YES! The orks are still here!!!! We have a softback codex now!!!!

And there was no rejoicing :(

Actually, even older. It's good ole' 2nd edition. Maybe one of the only kits still being sold. I think the wartrakk is slightly newer, although it's still from 2nd edition. Or maybe that one was made for Gorkamorka, come to think of it.

I just think it's funny that as sold, the War Buggy has a multi-melta.

Told you not to panic

Maybe the paperback codex did not get as nurfed as the hardback.

I stopped in my FLGS today to finally pick up a copy of the softcover W!G, and they were sold out. The owner said that he tried to order more from GW, but they are are "temporarily out of stock". I do see that Waaagh! Ghazghkull softcover is listed as "temporarily out of stock" on the main GW site. I guess GW must have sold through the initial print run and are waiting for more to be printed. I also noticed on GW.com that they dropped the price slightly for Codex: Orks Softback to $41. That's a nice price drop, although if they could have matched the new lower priced W!G it would have been even better.

Thank you for sharing that with us.
