<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "1500pts Foot Slogging Orks"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks 40k, I have tried Eldar, Space Wolves and I am also starting Nids. but Orks was the last race I thought I would play,b ut when I was offered the Ork side of an AOBR set for five Sternguard I accepted. lookingat them for a long time I wondered how I would play orks,and after looking through the codex I set my sights on the green tide. rather liking the idea of being able to just grind my foe into the ground, not to mention some of the entertaining rules in the codex. so after mulling around for a while I threw a 1500pt list together that I think will use. tried it for the first time today against a Khan biker army, and by turn three the enemy threw in the towel(I'll show an image of what turn three looked like). but I thought it would be a good Idea to see what others think of the list, please feel free to leave tips, but please bare in mind this army is for fun only, so not alot of money will begoing into it. anyways here is the list.

@Big Mek: yeah I thought, but its hard to ignore that they are 5pts cheaper, and can kill Marine HQ with a single shots, and deny armor to terminator armor and artificer armor, as for the gets hot, have always loved plasma weapons when playing marines, but as it is I think i will leave them as twin linked rokits.

as for the size of the Boyz mobs, they are twenty strong, giving them a very decent survival rate. have yet to lose an entire squad yet, was wittled down to the Nob on one squad, but at the end of the game he was still around.

quick question, can the War Boss take Kombi weapons while he is in Mega Armor? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/967482.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/967482.page GMT Re:1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

wow thats a good question, i have no idea but i'd like to know.

i've been facing alot of soulgrinders and shooty SM armies with land raiders, which are givin me problems. i faced a land raider ealier tonight and rolled 3s when i needed 4s to glance with my warboss lol. your rockin a few more PKs than me maybe thats a part of it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/967497.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/967497.page GMT Re:1500pts Foot Slogging Orks Str on your PKs? on the charge I thought it would be Str8, but someone told me it was only Str7(for a Nob in the boyz squad) how I see it is, on the charge you get a +1 to the Nob's Str and I, so he is now a Str4 I4 unit, and power fists double the users strength, so 2x4=8, or am I ignoring something here?
@Norwulf:as for the raider rolls that was just cruel, so close yet so far away,but asif to show how dangerous claws are,in my game against a shoot chaos daemonlist I had my War Boss with a PK clean a Soul Grinder in one turn of combat after the grinder rushed into my orks. wrecked him, it was funny, and very lucky.

It is str 8 because of the Furious Charge.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Actually, i stand corrected. It would be STR 10. Your Nob has a str of 4 and the Furious Charge would give it a str 5 base. With the PK your doubling the 5 to make it 10.

The way i look at it, Furious charge take effect whenever you charge. Therefore, way before your Nob with the PK attacks, he has a str of 5 because of the charge. Then he attacks and IF he hits, he then doubles the str of the PK. therefore it would be 10. It makes much more sense that way. I could be wrong but thats the most logical i would think.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/971706.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/971706.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/971739.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/971739.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

so nobz with str 4 x2+1 has str 9 with a PK.

i am the cougar nailed it.

also to Garuss: i hear gearing up your nobz with all different wargear is a good way to spead their wound around and keep em goin.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/972566.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/972566.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

my bad its meant to be Ard Armor, for 5pts for the Nob, I was made a mistake in the writing, bust as it is, the list is still legit s I had 3 pts left over and 3pts are needed to turn Ard Boy to Ard Armor on the 3 squads(1 point for each squad).

as for eveyone else, thank you for clearing that up quickly. now I just need to find a War Boss ing Mega Armor, thinking I just might buy Graz and using him as a War Boss in Mega armor, the Nobs in Mega Armor look too small, and not to mention they only come with kombi weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/975560.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/975560.page GMT Re:1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

big mek crazygit wrote:actually, you cant change a whole squad to ard boyz with only 1 point. you need around 120 points to make them an ard boy mob if your talking about a 30 ork mob
the difference between 4 and 5 is 1. so I have to add 1pt to each sqaud for the nob to get Eavy Armor, not the entire squad.

@Norwulf:thought about it, but its not a big interest for me, I only plan to have a 1500pt list, maybe add another Kopta to the lone kopta squad and maybe a min squad of Mega Nobs with scrochas and thats about as far as its going. might run Gaz but at 225pts he is a huge point sink, and at 1500pts it just doesn't fit unless I want to toss out the nobs. maybe in slightly larger games I could bring him.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/978880.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/978880.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/979050.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/979050.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

That's what he said. Before on his army list he made the mistake of calling it 'ard boy for the upgrade to give the 4+ save to just the nob and that it was 4 points. He realized his mistake and so added 1 point to each thing to equal a total of 5 points for the 'eavy armour upgrade to the nob. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980072.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980072.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980608.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980608.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks

Ghaz pays for himself. Never, ever, ever regretted running the Big G himself. For 2 turns he will be an immortal unstoppable badass. For 2 turns your boyz will be a threat to anything within 18' of them.

The guys I play with have only one strategy against any ork force with Ghaz: Kill Him Before Turn 2!! Well actually turn 3 is when I pop it, because you will definately get more benefit out of his Waaagh!!! upgrade.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980756.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980756.page GMT 1500pts Foot Slogging Orks ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980880.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254978/980880.page GMT
