KFF would stack with the exhaust cloud save for his ork bikers. Just hoping you guys can help out with this.

An Ork Biker within a KFF, for example, has three cover saves: A 5+ from the KFF, a 5+ from Jink (since it's a bike) and a 4+ from Exhaust Cloud. If it was also partially obscured by a ruins (4+) on the other side of a Forest (5+) it would have 5 cover saves, but only be able to choose the best of those.

This normally doesn't matter much, but there are a few things that will ignore only a specific type of cover save (Eldar Dark Reapers, for example, ignore Jink saves, but not other cover saves).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/566893/6317396.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/566893/6317396.page GMT Re:Ork KFF+ exhaust cloud ?

Hmmm... that made me think of an interesting idea.

In the next Ork codex, a lot of us Ork players are sort of hoping the KFF gets a needed boost in power. With cover changing from 4+ to 5+ across the board, Orks need some kind of a boost to keep all our Boyz from getting shot off the table by turn 3.

With all the cover-denying equipment in 6th, some people have tossed around the idea of making the KFF grant a 5+ or 4+ Invulnerable save instead. I think this would be pretty powerful... but again, Orks need a leg up.

Your post gave me a new idea. What if the KFF granted Shrouded instead? Then Orks out in the open would have a 5+ cover save, and Orks in cover would have a 3+ save. That could be a real boon, and it would still be vulnerable to cover-denying weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/566893/6317765.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/566893/6317765.page GMT
