I've been playing 40k and table top games since NOV. So i'm relatively new. i have a decent little Ork Army I've accumulated and When I saw the rumors of a campaign with Orks I was very intrigued.

I purchased the campaign and the rules within it, have left me somewhat confused.

The largest of the problems I'm seeing is that I see that a lot of the Missions revolve around laying down fortifications. according to the missions these fortifications are not counted towards the defending players list.

what I don't get is, how big and small are these lists supposed to be with in the first place? should these mission have set points? or are they basically designed to be played within a certain range of points.

I don't see how its fair if the defender has roughly 500-700 points in working fortifications and you're still supposed to play an equal FOC and points list with your opponent.

If you've done campaigns like this before, or you own the Red Waaagh! book, I would value your opinion and insight.

thanks

So far my experience has been they leave it to the player to decide on Points. Though given the use of Super heavies if recommend higher than 1500pts.

Though it seems possible to have 1000pts games with the book.

I have the book in front of me and found no requirements on points though a couple of missions require around 1000pts of must take models.

Thanks for the input. I'll try to play 1850-2500 point games
