The ork warbosses are split on these. Trukks makes you get there a lot faster - which is good. However trukkers will also die really fast. The best thing to say about trukks is they have objective secured.
I can tell you Ghazz is not necessary tho, if that makes you happier.

I like large mobs of shoota boyz backed up by painboyz. I prefer the horde style over the elite fast style. I've never actually used Ghaz , so can't give advice on him other than I've done fine with out him.

Ghaz is worthless garbage for his cost, hes barely any better than a normal MA warboss which is ~100pts cheaper...Eternal Warrior isnt as big a deal as everyone makes it out to be especially for a T5 model.
As for the boyz or wagons, maybe. Foot boyz, trukk boyz, and wagon boyz are still viable but not on their own. Trukk boyz should never, ever be taken as the primary force in your list...they should be taken in conjunction with warbiker spam or battlewagons so they dont die immediately since theres more important things to deal with
Orks are a massing army. Literally any unit you want to bring, it will perform dramatically better if you bring two or three. Never bring a solo wagon, always at LEAST in pairs and ideally in a trio. I would say MANz Missiles (minimal meganobz in a trukk) or warbikers are the only unit that you shouldnt sweat it if you only have 1, theyre pretty good on their own if the rest of the army supports their style of play.
I generally run footboyz with slugga choppa, running every turn and declaring waaaagh! the turn they might get a charge after running (usually T3). As a distraction i run a full warbiker mob with a warboss and painboy, they soak up a ton of heat and take it like an ork! leaves the footboyz relatively unscathed...and if they are then the warbikers are unscathed and i'd MUCH rather the warbikers than the boyz be unharmed lol...but the bikers can actually take a beating so i want you to shoot them not the boyz.

The most shocking part about the new codex is that I find myself in agreement with almost everything Vineheart posts, while I usually had a completely different point of view about everything in the old codex.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks actually do not think that purple makes them harder to see. The joke was made canon by Alex Stewart's Caphias Cain books.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe. |
