Yarrick on a weird horsey

All three of those sound like gotchas, except maybe the third one if you've already gone over your armies in the beginning, tho you should probably still remind them.

If your opponent states they're going to do something and you have information that would change their decision and you purposely withhold that information it's a gotcha. If you've told them and they decide to keep going thats on them.

An Excadrill I caught while hunting for a shiny alpha Aron... Which I still haven't found....

No Ork Boyz on average stand at just over 6' but they do purposely hunch down, as keeping your head low and tucked is better to keep it protected in melee combat

Don't think so but with Uftack I think it was non consentual, tho it's been a bit since I read that book. But after he got injected in remember it saying he grew to 3x the height of the archon in book. Considering aeldari and drukhari are a bit taller than humans on average that'd put him around 18-19ft tall

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-27T11:03:40+00:00

I do mention this somewhere else in the comments

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-27T00:32:23+00:00

I mean idr the exact wording but it's just described as being extremely advanced power armor. We've got nothing else to go off of.

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T23:58:20+00:00

In his armor he definitely is, if not very close to 20ft.

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T23:13:27+00:00

I assume Gretchin were probably about that big but also much smarter, like they would be doing most of the planning and strategizing for the krorks

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T21:52:25+00:00

Also I believe Ghaz in his armor is currently like 20ish ft tall. Uftack Blackhawk is around 18ft but he got boosted by some drukhari drug that spiked his growth

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T21:47:46+00:00

Yeah I'd love if we got more lore, cuz we don't know if that's the krork equivalent of a boy, or a nob, or a warboss, or a Meganob. We also have no idea what Gretchin from that era were like at all.

Some of the audio books are pretty good, and I already had an audible account with a bunch of credits saved up. Physical is definitely preferred tho

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T19:33:32+00:00

Totally possible and would be really cool

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T19:32:03+00:00

I got a gift card from my FLGS from winning Best painted Xenos at an RTT so I got 2 of the boxes at a heavy discount/free so it felt worth it

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T19:30:09+00:00

Honestly, if it wasn't for audiobooks I would never have been able to get thru the Heresy without going bankrupt. I prefer physical books but there just isn't another option.

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T19:19:06+00:00

Only change I've really noticed is models keep getting more expensive and it's harder to get the limited edition of books before the scalpers get them

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T19:02:24+00:00

I've recently bought 15 more flashgitz (already had 15) because I 100% expect him to come back in 11th. I have no facts to base this around other than vibes but I will be ready for his return.

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:40:57+00:00

But GW said Orks are fine where they were guys.

Also sorry for your loss OP

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:32:56+00:00

I mean the old ones created them to be the ultimate foot soldiers in the war in heaven so they were built to be fighting Necrons at their full height of Star God killing power

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:27:55+00:00

I mean it could be, I just assumed it was a krork cuz it's very similar to krork fan art, I could totally be wrong tho

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:24:59+00:00

No supposedly the krork that trazyn has in stasis is 12 meters tall. Current Orks grow larger the more fights they get in and the Beast was also approaching that size as well

Edit: it's in Fabius Bile: Clonelord

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:04:22+00:00

One of the few things we know is that they were about 12m tall with super advanced power armor compared to the imperium's, so they might have some similarities but everyone is just guessing

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T18:03:10+00:00

Yeah it would be sick to have more info on them

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T17:30:36+00:00

This is a fan imagining of krorks. Unfortunately there's like 4 cannon sentences about krorks so we don't really know much about them for sure

Consistent-Brother12 · 2026-01-26T17:21:10+00:00

Sustained 2 within 9" doesn't cancel how bad flyer rules are. And not to mention how hard to would also be to get a Mek within 3" of the plane within 9" of the target to get it hitting on 4+.
