I recently purchased the 6 Renegade ogryns, 3 nurgle ogryns and 1 khorne ogryn and I am wondering what is your opinion on them? are they the same use as normal ones. how should I use them. and how many should I use.

You can find the rules for the standard renegade ogryn at forgeworld. I thought there were only five normal renegade ogryn though, from what I can see in the forgeworld website.

May have been 5. Just going from memory as they haven't arrived. and thank you. are they updated rules for 6th?

Currently there are no updated rules for 6th, but if you google there is an updated Renegades and Heretics PDF that isn't listed on the Forge World site. When I emailed them FW said they were working on various 6th updates and they hoped to get the update out asap, but currently Renegades and Heretics and Eldar Corsairs are still unfinished.

I don't know whether they're any good but I imagine they aren't the strongest possible choice.

Really I just got them for an interesting and fun unit.

I'd just use them with the loyalist guard codex That's what i'm doing with mine

Yeah I have an entire nurgle plague zombie guard army using zombie and cadian parts that look pretty good and I can have them count as plague zombies,renegades or normal guardsmen.

I use 'em quite a bit in my Vraks army. The nurgle ones last a bit longer than the plain ones but both can cause a lot of damage against big soft units or anything slower or as slow as them as they get a lot of attacks (way more than imperial versions) if you role lucky. Hard bit, just like regular Orgyns is getting them into combat.

Thank you! Any experience with the khorne ogryn with the hounds?

Are Ogryns intelligent enough to go renegade?

probably more intelligent then the guards. haha.
