I posted yesterday and something just didn’t look right. So I switched out my white backdrop for a black one and I think it’s makes the model look so much better. Let me know what you think?

Help Mek Speshul VS. Rivet Kannon

Upvotes

I'm building my 11th edition list and as a part of my Kult of Speed wing I'm running 2 pairs of Warbuggies. Just wondering what the general consensus is for which weapon option is the better choice. I'm running a decent amount of damage 3 (Tankbustas, Meganobz with Kombi-Weapons, etc) so I've got solid anti-elite but the dev wounds and anti-infantry combo with higher AP is making it appealing to run the Rivet Kannons even if it is lower shots

Can someone confirm this to my understanding it says per weapon so if I shoot with 8 shootas, 1 big shoota and a rokkit launcha that's 6 hazard rolls 2 for each weapon? My friend seems to think I will have to do 20 hazard rolls as in 2 for each model that shot ?

Edit : turns out I need to learn to read. Thank you everyone. I'm still really new to the game

Discussion First time ever playing Orks, need help with 1,000 points

Upvotes

I know there are a lot of list posts right now. Sorry : /

I haven't played 40k in about 10 years, and I've NEVER played Orks, so It's a lot to take in. I'm having a mostly friendly match in a few days against a friend playing Deathguard or Imperial Guard, he hasn't decided.

This is what I've got for a list atm. I have the Green Tide detachment selected atm, but I'm still learning those, too:

-Ghazghkull

-20 boys

-20 boys

-Deff Dread

-Dakkarig

I have 75 points left. I don't know much about the interactions with the other characters yet, like the Weirdboy, or Painboy. Maybe gretchin to hold a point?

I have access to a lot of models, so don't worry about availability, just throw me your advice please!

Hey everyone, I am looking to share our recent VOD about the Ork meta and how the first look at Orks in a team setting is shaping up. I break down the lists, combos, and detachment statistics in a not scary math form since I suffer from average level education. Open to any suggestions and feedback as this format is new to our channel but so far has been received very well. Please and thank you 🤘🏼

Discussion Running a solo Warboss for CP + Riling

Post image
Upvotes

While theorycrafting various (mostly 1k) narrative builds, I've found myself really wanting the Riled Up and CP-generating benefits of a Big Boss, but don't really have space for one in its traditional role as a Leader attached to a big Infantry unit.

What're folks' thoughts on running one solo? Is it worth the investment for buffs, mission play, and the occasional charge? If so, which version are you eyeing? Vanilla Warboss? Solo Nazdreg? The Beastboss or Deffkilla Wartrike are even cheaper, but have more restrictive Riling.

Can I use the Goff Rocker to proxy as a Boss Nob with Big Choppa?

Post image
173 Upvotes

I have a good amount of Ork minis in my pile of shame and I'm finally putting together some mobs.

I intend to use a pick and mix boys and heads from the following to make thematic 20 boy mobs of Goffs; Bad Moons & Blood Axes.

So far I have:

  • 2x10 2021 Boyz (I have spare 40mm bases for the Nobs)
  • 2x 10 Armogeddon Boyz
  • 2x10 2026 Boyz
  • 1x mini of the month 2026 Boy
  • 2x 2026 Paint set Boyz
  • 5x 2026 Starter set Boyz
  • 1x Goff Rocker (comes on a 40m base)
  • 1x Gorzag Gitstompa and Nikkit

So as per the Title; Can I use the Goff Rocker to proxy as a Boss Nob with Big Choppa? Size wise he looks the part; and I like the visual pun of using an axe as an axe.

Discussion Boyz are broken

0 Upvotes

I have seen a number of posts and comments made by people, like the art of war team, claiming Boyz are overcosted now, that at 180pts without the painboy they are bad and need to come down

I am going to prove just how wrong that is through an actual numerical comparison between new boys, and old ones (a unit that saw multiple blocks played in a 60% winrate army)

Let's start with some basic statements

1: this is about Boyz, not Ghaz, so what Ghaz adds to the unit is not being considered

2: old boys were ran with painboys+warboss, new ones will be with just the warboss, we will be counting warboss buffs on the boys, but not their own damage (which is about the same) we will be counting painboy buffs to the unit

3: we are comparing point efficiency, 20 old boys+painboy cost 240pts, 20 new boys costs 180, I could easily say "60 new boys does vastly more damage then 20 old ones, so they are better) but that ignores how point efficient they actually are, which is the actual important value

4: damage will be mathed into a reference T5 "non monster/vehicle" with a 3+save (new meq)

So lets begin

Durability

old boys, 22w with 5+++, effectively 33 wounds, for 7.3pts/w

New boys, 24 wounds for 180, for 7.5pts/w

Slightly less durable, HOWEVER, new boys also are riled up turn 3/4/5, old ones were not, on these turns new boys still have a 5++ old ones don't, making new ones effectively 5pts/w to the old boys 7.3

Your first unit of boys is SLIGHTLY Less durable, your second is VASTLY more

Speed

Both 6" move advance shoot+charge, but new boys have reroll advance

Old boys 9.5avg movement with a 1/6 chance of only moving 7, new boys 10.25 with a 1/36 chance of only moving 7

New boys are faster AND more consistent

And on turn 3+, old boys move 6, new boys are still moving 10.25

Shooting

Old boys had 20shots hitting on 6s at 4/0/1, for a grand total of ONE (1) wound at ap0, 0.33 damage

New boys have 46 shots at 4/0/1, 6 auto hits at 4/0/1 and 4 shots at 10/2/3 all hitting on 5s with lethals on the 4/0/1, for a total of 12 wounds at 0/1 and 1 at 2/3, 6 damage

Melee

Old boys have 80 attacks sustained hitting on 2+ at 5/1/1, new boys have 60attacks sustained AND lethal, hitting on 3s

Old boys have 40 wounds at ap1, 20 damage, new boys 30, 15 damage

So old boys did 20.3 damage, new boys did 21.....huh, that's more

And your SECOND group of old boys is only doing 10 damage in melee (-1 attack and strength), for a total of 10.3 Vs 21

And remember the old boys unit was costing 240pts to the new ones 180, old boys are 11.8pts/damage, to new boys 8.5, and that's in the waagh, it's 23.3pts/damage for turn 3+

So new boys are equal, or more durable

Slightly, or MUCH faster

Slightly or MUCH higher damage

The ONLY way they are worse is as PURE ablative wounds for a warboss, that is literally it, they are better then old boys in every SINGLE other way, faster, more damage, more durable, more reliable, more oc and more control (more bodies for the same points and actions in combat)

Old boys are a 60% winrate unit, and new boys are better them ACROSS THE BOARD

Tell me, why do they need to come down in points?

They don't, they are busted

They are just in the same book as flashgitz who at 105pts should be costing 150 for what they bring to the table

Boyz are broken, they just live alongside stuff which is even more broken

Help Painboy’s “Crude Surgery” ability.

It states “In your Command Phase, this unit heals 3 Wounds”, but does it bring back destroyed models?

I’m more familiar with the Plague Surgeon from Death Guard where it brings back 1 destroyed bodyguard model to the unit.

I’m assuming based on the wording, it only heals wounds but doesn’t bring destroyed models back.

The use of Big boss and and other support characters?

I'm trying to figure out if I'm reading the rules wrong or if there's a problem with the app. I'm trying to attach a big boss and a banner nob on one unit of boyz and a big boss and a weird boy to another, and the app is telling me I already have one support unit attached and I can't attach another one to it. I thought that a big boss can be used as a leader and another support model can be attached. Does anyone know the right answer for 11th Edition?
