You tell me...

So I havnt had time to take pics of my Orks and I'm posting this becuase I can't wait to introduce the boyz. So to get started, My ork warbands title is "Da Dread Pirate Rotjaws Krew" and they are lead by the loud and Boisterous Kaptin Rotjaw. Rotjaws personality reflects his love for the loud and equally big Deffdread, and big mek warbands flock to his call, forsaking there previous clans and tribes to fight under Rotjaws flag to live the high life of adventure while building some of the biggest meanest Dreads out there.

Rotjaws fleet is composed of a vase variety of ships, but the biggest ship known as "Da Revenge of Mork" is the pinacle of the orks crude technology. It has a metal jaw that can open to suck smaller ships for lootin, and even take bites out of larger ones rending them usless. Kannons border the side to shoot ammo as well as dreads into other ships and planet surfaces. It goes without saying that this has proven as an effective shock tactic.

Rotjaws Krew travel the galaxy, looting the equipment and bitz they need for dread making and when no world nearby has the supplies they need, they are totally content with ramsaking a defensless one to see who heroically shows up with nice things to loot. Sometimes Rotjaws and his krew is employed by other warbosses, who hear of there destructive dread power and find it well worth the price of Rotjaws demands. Da Dread Krew even doesn't mind being employed by other alien races such as tau or even radical parts of the imperium as mercenaries if the price is right. Of course, they are just as quick to betray them as they are to work with them.

When Rotjaws krew are not fightin, da krew is at Da Kaptins secret asteroid port. There they drink, brawl, and watch the dread matches in a giant arena to see who the best mek is as the grot/alien slaves hurry to make repairs to the fleet under the big meks guidance. But the true purpose of this port is Kaptin Rotjaws pride and joy. For years he has journeyed the galaxy looking for only the best bitz for a small planet sized titan. One he wishes to one day integrate his brain into like a deffdread, and tear worlds bit by bit as the biggest ork ever to exist. An ambition that some would say impossible. Only time will tell.

For kaptin rotjaw, all is not well. Behind his bellowing laughs and crude humor lies a dark secret. Years ago, Da Great White Void Whale attacked his old fleet. Even tho he was loosing the fight, Rotjaw was to stubborn to give up. Ripping his ships hule and standing defiant, he taunted the chaos beast who crashed head first into the kruiser. Rotjaw was defeated and left broken and missing his left arm. Thanks to his natural ork toughness and pure stubborn nature he survived the vaccum of space and was saved by his first mate and personal big mek Mista Gubbinz who escaped with the few survivors in a small vessal. Now Rotjaw lives knowing the beast is out there, and won't admit this unsettles him. He will even go in a fit of anger and rage if he sees to much white, and rips everything apart screaming "DA GREAT WHITE WHALE LADZ, SHE BE A KOMIN FUR MEH UTTA ARM!!! KANT YER SEE HER!!!!??? MISTA GUBBINZ GET MEH DAKKA, SHE WONT BE ASKAPIN DIS TIME!!!!!!" It is at this time only mista gubbinz has the wits and know how to calm the kaptin down before he destroys the ship and krew.

So Rotjaw and his krews future is unkown at this point. Will they accomplish the insane task of building the Kaptins Dread Titan. Will Da Great Void Whale destrot them again? Or will a both happen, resulting in the titanic duels between Rotjaws Titan Form and the equally Gargantic Beast. The universe will soon see.

So that's my fluff for my orks. Tell me what you think and if its propa enough to be orky. What did you like? What did you not like? Anything you suggest adding/changing? Tanks much!

Seems perfectly Orky to me. It looks like pretty standard Ork Freebooter fluff and reminds me of Kaptain Bluddflagg from DoW2:Retribution.

If you really drive the theme home with the painting and modeling then your army would be awesome to play against.

Tanks a lot man! He's kind of the result of inspiration from the works of Herman Melvile,J. M. Barrie, and william goldman. I havnt read the latter of the two yet, but plan on it as soon as I'm done reading my current novels.

I just got the mental image of a space pirate ship with a bunch of orks trying to row it through space (it works, because they're orks).

Yes, I think that is a propa orky list. Honestly, anything ridiculous and hilariously unusual is perfectly orky.
