It grants extra attacks when the enemy outnumbers you.

White Dwarf mentions it "gives D3 extra attacks in combat"

It's one of the USR, +D3 attacks if outnumbered in CC. Gorky also has a flamer, compared to Morky's KMB, so it's a bit more CC oriented. I wonder if Rampage and flamer are directed against tarpitting?

Dunno if Morky and it's KFF will see too much action - you can always slap an (allied) KFF-Mek into the Gorky, that's just 35 pts extra for the Mek basecost or so.

While I understand people play Orks for different reasons than other armies, but after spending a couple hundred bucks on models it'd be nice to win a game ONCE in a while.

I'd like to introduce you to my Tyranids. You'd finally get to win a game and I could continue scratching my head over the fun, but entirely ineffectual army I just poured $700+ into. :-p

Just making sure it was known.

I wonder if Rampage takes account of the troops inside the Gork-n-ort before you unload them ?

Pretty sure they aren't considered to be 'locked in the combat'.

Nothing should be inside when it locks in combat!

Are there actually rules for walker transports in cc? What does happen to the transported orks inside of it?
Knowing orks they are probably cheering.

I'm guessing one of two possibilities:

a) the codex will specify what happens, because it sounds like a situation that hasn't occurred in the rules before.

b) the design team never considered that possibility, and we'll be left in limbo until a FAQ somewhere down the line answers it.

Does the Hierophant have any rules about this situation which would help?

Well, considering the designing team mentioning 'nobz assaulting from the g(m)orkanaut' i guess that is 'b'.
Hehe!

were there any rules for the Squiggoth about assault?
I know it's not a walker, but it's also a singularity (MC/transport)

was it considered like an open-topped and that's it?

Yes, for firing and disembarking/embarking purposes.

dedicated BW's for all would be sweeeeeet, and hey, not like GW doesnt want to sell more kits right?

Exactly I'm pretty sure this is the way to go for GW!

Yeah, but with the KFF "bubble nerf" this equipment becomes either too precious or completely useless, depending on your strategy.
Now 50 points does sound like a pretty steep price to pay!

Mega with shoulder attachment that I thought was possibly a new SAG (Probably isn't, given the SAG we saw in yesterday's picture, so no idea what it is) has a vice like claw, rather than bladed.
Seen some Megas with two CCW (Buzz saws).

Lightning Claw Meganobs lol

I guess we know the alternate build for them now.

I don't understand the confusion. What happens when you assault a land raider with some dudesmen inside it. You fight it, if nothing happens nothing happens. If it blows up, people inside can die, outside as well. But since there is only a front exit, they might be trapped inside and die. Pretend its a land raider that gets to punch you in the face too.

A landraider can't be locked in combat, a Walker can.

Man, if I could take a land raider that could punch you in the face...not you specifically, Orock

Armor 14 all around, assault vehicle, and face-punching goodness. I'd almost think about trading in my stompa---almost.

So what. There's nothing going on there that would need special rules coverage. Do you have room to disembark at least 1" away from enemy models? Yes? Fine. No? Tough gak. Just like every other transport.

Hold on, I blew up a landraider, completely surrounded by MANZ, this weekend and all the termies inside sat nicely in the ruble because it is so large that they were still 1 inch away from the big ladz. No one died inside the landraider.

nope rules say you have to disembark from one of the exits, you can sit in the center, as long as one of the exits isn't blocked. Sounds like you got cheated.

If all the exits are blocked their is an emergency disembark as well.

But if the Land Raider exploded then it's kind of hard to disembark from something that's removed from the table.

We looked up the rules at the time and explode read something like:

replace the vehicle with a crater and put the transported unit inside the crater.
We saw the rule about disembarking but it was for wrecked.

I don't have the rulebook right now I'll check again.

Also since we're on the subject, when an assault vehicle is wrecked by glancing, which page is the rule concerning the effect on embarked troops? We couldn't find it during the game.

I'm not asking for the rule here on the forum, just the page number and we'll look it up.

i havent even considered those kind of things!

7th doesn't use craters for exploded vehicles. Are you playing 6th?

And it's a pinning test for the unit if the vehicle explodes or is wrecked.

No we played 7th, but we probably get things wrong!
you are correct we did not use a crater, just removed the vehicle.

pinning is irrelevant, terminators, and boys are fearless

Terminators have't been fearless.. ever. I'd recheck your 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th edition SM codex. (If you meant dark angels, then you should specify as they aren't simply terminators)

Is there any news on what the deffstorm mega shoota or the kustom mega cannon do? They showed us what the snazz guns do..
