In all honesty Ghaz is usually getting were I want him too turn 2 anyways so how does coming on the back field and getting him to the same place any different? If anything it has a higher chance of prolonging ghaz's arrival which is rarely a good thing. Maybe its about the rules? but the rules are pretty clear you are allowed. And lastly its orks, they could use a couple "tricks" as you may call them.

Yea I just don't understand why it is viewed so badly, its a tactic I don't use because I don't even feel its that great yet people are yelling "the game is broken" or "your a TFG if you do that thing your allowed to do".

To the op: If you were playing me and you did it I really wouldn't care and the rules allow you to do this so nobody should really be caring but as you can see by other people's reactions that it is the single most hated legal rule I have come across and if you play people that are WAAC type players you will run into heated debates from people trying to stop you from doing something legal. So maybe discuss with your local gaming group but I give it a thumbs up.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2095016.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2095016.page GMT Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot

Meh. I mean, it *can* be good if you know you're playing a Leaf Blower army, but that's basically counter picking. Against the most popular armies today (Blood Angels/Space Wolves), the tactic is useless. Blood Angels have fast vehicles to leave Ghaz in the dust, and Space Wolves' most popular build, Loganwing, can avoid it all together. In fact most mech can avoid it turn 2, which is the earliest it could come in.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096460.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096460.page GMT Re:Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot
I have no problem using a non mega armored warboss for this trick, but personally I think using Ghaz is just a TFG move. again thats just me ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096580.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096580.page GMT Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot Use the boss on a bike, not ghaz. Way better option for this.
If you are playing a reserve based army or your opponent will hold back, don't attatch the boss and use him with you nob bikers.

Loganwing is very ineffective - most *good* sw builds center around razorback spam, NOT a reserve based low model count army that most any veteran player can pick apart.

Vs. razorback spam this is a deadly tactic.

Use the biker boss. The turn after you hit he can peel off and do work in the backfield. With hluck, he should get a few razorbacks before he gets dead. He will force your opponent to direct much needed fire into the backfield rather than at your approaching mob.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096617.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096617.page GMT Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot
That is just devious. I wouldn't use Ghazzy, though, cuz he'll slow the unit down. The original idea is better.

Unless the Russes have the counter to Snikrot, CREEEEEEEEEED!

This tactic with Ghazzy is a great way to put pressure on Long Fang squads, Devastatiors, and other lay-back-and-blow-the-gack-out-of-all-things-that-aren't-on-your-side.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096626.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2096626.page GMT Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot

I'm not sure your definition of Loganwing matches up with everyone elses, bud...

Don't need to imagine it, it was almost me. Friend of mine did it to me with just a normal warboss with PK. Its plain mean

Wasn't as bad as losing a squad of LRBT though luckily i'd bubbled wrapped.

That is why you use the warboss on a bike with a squig. Keep him back far enough to avoid combat on the initial charge, let him consolidate in for your opponents turn, and on your next turn he is free to break off, move 12, and assault a squadron.

Very low model count. Pretty easy to deal with if you know what you are doing. What is your definition of Loganwing?


Calling it reserve-based or Terminator-heavy is not 100% accurate. Most of the Wolf Guard units take only one Terminator per 5 WG, and simply for the CML. This is of course backed by Long Fangs, one unit which Logan joins...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2097552.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326637/2097552.page GMT Re:Orks: Diry underhanded Snikrot

I can see the principle but keeping him out of combat may be harder than you think. I personally think i'd lose the bike and keep it cheap.
