this all happened last Sunday in Worcester in the UK.

The mission types were slightly more complex than usual with one person in each team going for one particular mission type. The first game for example was the relic and contact lost. only the assigned players could score their own objectives. So one player on maelstrom and one on the relic. We were playing against double csm, one summoned 3 lords of change but the stompa took care of them. Damian got the relic and the objectives ended up one one side of the table (so i deployed there). It was a thrashing, something like 19-2. Unfortunately the players seemed new ish and we felt cruel wiping out 15 marines in one blast with the stompa (well Damian didn't haha!) some boyz got the objectives and i swept through my opponents marines and around their back lines.

game 2 was against the other current top team who were a little cocky at first (double eldar!) but they were all bark and no bite as the stompa crushed both of their 2 wraith knights. I had purge the alien and damian had tactical escalation. Strangely the opponent who also had purge the alien i had played before, and killed everything he had but his wraithknight, who hid behind a large piece of terrain and won him the game on points last time. NOT THIS TIME BABY. Feeling like the ork gods themselves, We stomped all over them, on points and on kill points. The game ended with a score something like 16-4. We drew all the right cards, and they didnt, which was unfortunate.

Game 3 had us against another undefeated csm pair, including sam who has wont he last 2 tournaments. He is not "that guy" though and relaly a pleasure to play against, despite the self admitted tones of very slight cheese that was happening. It was a up hill battle from the start. We drew no right cards, and as it was cloak and shadows, were limited to only 3 cards a turn. Luckily damian could discard 2 a turn thanks to hsi warlord trait, which he did basically every turn. My tank bustas actually got first blood on a vehicle scoring 2 points for first blood. At the end of the game each objective was worth 3 points for me. With a series of unlucky rolls and a couple of annoying immobilized results that sam managed to cause, I was only a few inches out from scoring 6 more points, which would almost have won us the game. However, the stompa was tied up much of the game by melta marines and my orks were too far away and too busy trying to smash heads to help clear them out of the stompas way. With some clutch summoning from sam and some solid game tactics he denied us objectives and scored almost every objective he drew. Not that im a little salty or anything! It was a good game none the less. lesson learned: protect the stompa with more infantry in the future.


So overall, third out of 14 teams is pretty awesome!

stomp on my friends!

It's always good to see the boyz doin a little krumpin. Good job on the L-dar.

Are the custom stompa points values updated? Last time I saw them they were criminally undercoated. Did they finally officially FAQ them?

Just to be clear you could start out with a decent one for like 400 points.

You know why this is news?

I dont believe the stompa points have been updated. They had thr opportunity to FAQ them when they made an FAQ for dread mob here: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/d/Dred_Mob.pdf

but as you can see, they have not updated them. The stompa cost 625 points with upgrades in this instance as it is the most updated version (which happens not to have been updated). The tournament organizers were fine with it though as all lists were checked.

do tell

Men, I run orks. And the fact that you can get something far better for less points than the codex version shouldn't be allowed. Why would you EVER use the codex one over the custom?

Congratulations on doing so well. Nice lists as well.

Good job on having the boyz smash heads and show them orks aren't push overs.

Thanks all! really appreciate it
