My friend and I went to Gamesday together this year, and got to play a few games of BFG. We both enjoyed the game, so we figured we'd build a fleet and then play some games. I got pretty excited about the amount of dakka orks can field, so I'm thinking about building an ork fleet. He's playing Chaos. Do you guys have any tips to offer? I'm pretty worried about the amount of guns he can field at long range. And I was initially attracted to the Ram-ships but I've decided that they'd probably be more useful in a bigger game. (We're planning on starting at 100pts)

As soon as I draw up a fleet list, I'll post it here.

A 100 points? What will be your starting fleet, 3 escorts?

1000pts Sorry >_>

I've been doing some research about orks and chaos in general, and Right now I'm planning on running

2 Kill Kroozers
3 Terror Kroozers
3 Ravagers

But that tops me off without a warboss. I'd like to put one in, but I've also heard that chaos is pretty weak against ordinance, so I don't wanna take out the escorts. Any advice?

your gonna need warlord rerolls to reliably reload ordinance. im restarts BFG and remaking my ork fleet and it will revolve around a hammer and 2 terror ships with warlords, rerolls and some ravagers. the idea is to lauch massive amounts of ord then board.

There ain't nearly enough Salvage in this thread!

Yup, you will need at least one character for a ld boost... perhaps scratch one terror kroozer, go for a boss or nob atleast, and perhaps stick some more escorts in it... A savage or 3 perhaps?

agreed and watch out for dread claws i used to rape fleets with them , everyone tends to ignore assault boats till 10 of em hit your biggest ships and turn it into a floating coffin (no port/starbord/dorsal guns ,no engines fires all over etc)
they can be truly horrible
