Fun army. Nice to see all the "big stuff" showing up. Shame about Ghaz though.

It's still dumb that Gorka/Morkanauts are Super Heavies.

Also it's good to see a Batrep with non-symmetrical terrain. Far too many of them going around these days.

Glad you're still enjoying them

Yeah it's annoying about the 'nauts. At least they went up to 24 wounds each. Note, my Gorka should have run roughshod over his army, but kept bouncing off the wave serpent cos I didn't realise it doesn't get transhuman in combat.

Very silly but amusing what happened to Ghaz. I think he will be seen even more in normal lists now due to AoC.

How did you manage 2 warboss models in one detachment? Both Ghaz and the squigosaur have the warboss keyword. One per detachment.

Good spot, surprised no one else noticed. I suppose Ghaz just goes in his own SC detachment, which costs 0CP, so it works out the same.

Thanks. I have all those models, looks like a fun list. Opposing players do a double take. I will have to think about tweaking it to get some troops just to get objectives.

With the changes to CP that are coming soon (start with 6CP) I'll also be forced to drop the Deff Dread for some Grots so the Spearhead becomes a Patrol.

That will leave me starting on 0CP but worst of all means there's no CP left to put the Mega Dread in deep strike, which is about the only truly strong thing about the list imo. That, combined with having to destroy the theme by taking Grots, is enough to put me off the list unfortunately

6CP for the super heavies is ridiculous and completely unwarranted imo. But it seems that Orks need to have all their quirky fun curtailed

I am sure GW will adjust the detachment CP costs. Recall they did this before, giving a big bump to Battalions. So have faith in the Emperor.
BTW, I enjoy your 5 minute battle reports.

You know you don't have to use those rules, right? They're not the rules of 40k. They're the rules of whatever tournament pack is coming out.

Are these games being played at a tournament?

No, but where I play people tend to like using the most up to date CA/grand tournament rules as standard (and I do too) unless pre-arranging something weird and wonderful as a one-off. However if this Ork list does becomes illegal I think I may well still wheel it out from time to time and arrange rules to accomodate the list.
