So, Ogryns and Bullgryns don't get much benefit from most of the Astra Militarum orders and are rather poor value for what they can achieve. This new rule attempts to fix both issues by giving them unique orders that drastically improve their performance.

Any officer may attempt to issue one of the following orders to a unit of Bullgryns or Ogryns instead of a normal order. All the other rules for orders apply as normal.

I didn't tell you to fall over!
All Ogryns, Ogryn Boneheads, Bullgryns and Bullgryn Boneheads in the ordered unit gain the Feel No Pain special rule until the start of their next turn.

Crush them for the Emperor!
The ordered unit gains the Furious Charge and Rage special rules until the end of the turn.

Burst limiters off!
The ordered unit must make a shooting attack. All Grenade Gauntlets and Ripper Guns gain the Gets Hot! and Rending special rules for this attack.

The best thing for ogryns are the priest's war hymns. They're so good.

I personally think it would be funner to give the Bonehead the ability to give the Orders, as right now they have no role to play other then to hit things when they are meant to be 'smarter' Ogryns.

I would replace rending with ''AP 2 on the roll of a 6 to wound'' otherwise you just made they unjustifiably good at killing vehicles and maybe replace Furious Charge with Fleet to stop Str 8 Power Mauls. Other then that i like it, nice job.
