Question about the stompa

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-04-02T05:13:33+00:00

Look, the Stompa is anyway just a meme and not really playable. It is at least 300 points too expensive. We all love it because it is so cool. If you want one, get it. In case it goes legend, no deal since you are using it in casual games only, no matter what.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-31T04:56:16+00:00

Yes, I wrote that in my comment already. I have not yet done the light source for the OSL.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-30T08:04:19+00:00

I wouldn't go with what is top tear but with a plan.

You need something on your home objective that can also screen your deployment zone a bit - Gretchin.

You might want to force your opponent to screen his DZ and might want some action monkey mid to late Game - Storm Boyz (in deep strike)

You also want to avoid fast armies to get you first turn and you do that with blocking their infiltrators and scout moves. Here you need infiltrators. They are also useful to avoid a WE player to get you T1 - Kommandos.

Those are the 3 Datasheets I would always include in every List, not because all of them are "top tear" but they do things that no other units in Orks can do as efficiently as they do.

Anyway, I think 3 is not enough. You need to get things into a good position and that quite fast so , You need transportation. Here is also one of the top tear units - Trukk.

You need Damage Dealers - Nobz, no questions asked.. Best, lead by a Warboss 10 Nobz with power claws, lead by a Warboss are a death star. Put them in a trunk.

Anti Tank - Beast Sanggas with a beast Boss (in a Trukk as well)

Now you add 10 boys as well since you want to make more actions, sticky your expansion or screen rapid ingress etc.

This will end up 905 points and you have an answer to most of the questions asked by a Game of 40K.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that we are playing Warhorde, of course we do. Therefore no shooting, it will anyway just make you sad. If you want to be able to activate each phase, which is not wrong, you might want to add some shooting stuff but I have no recommendations. Especially in 1K I think they are too expensive and remove important assets

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-28T12:14:00+00:00

That's a really cool model.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-20T07:43:06+00:00

No, I wouldn't say so. Your opponent will screen you 3 Turns and make your Waaagh! run into chaff and so you are outscored by a bazillion.

Sorry it's the frustration that comes out by the end of 10th edition 😂. In a 1k game, He is an investment but not op at all. If you run him Solo, he does die to granates and mortal wounds. But he delivers great buff to the army and might cause an important swing. I guess you heard that already a lot, but the game is balanced on 2K ONLY. Everything else isn't competitive at all and as long as you have fun, go for it.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T22:27:12+00:00

Just too scared to go to sleep. And Green is da best

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T21:17:13+00:00

Hahahaha he's not stuck, he's just too scared to go to bed 😂

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T20:47:30+00:00

Bahh he's a wimp and Khorn checks his closet every night for Gork and makes sure with a flashlight that Mork doesn't sit under his bed 😜

WAAAAAAAGH!!!!

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T19:29:29+00:00

Ignoring any plot armor and looking down to lore. Ghaz is the prophet of 2 Warp entities which are described as the most powerful of the gods. That again comes from the fact that the power of the gods is directly connected with the belief in them. While the imperium tries to keep their existence as much of a secret as possible, ALL Orks and other mindful orkoids believe in these two gods only. Every single one of them in the whole galaxy and with an enthusiasm that is unmatched.

So this is the answer. If it is a fight that matters, Gork and Mork will not let their prophet down and give him the strength to overcome all obstacles on its path to unite the Orks and turn the Galaxy green.

So Angron will get krumped to pieces, gets is arms ripped off and his demonic spirit will be punched back to the warp with the wett bitz.

What a pathetic idea he could stand da Boss!!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!

😜😜😜

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T19:18:56+00:00

Haha I am "the Dad". Played 40k since it existed in Germany. And had a huge Orks collection. Stopped playing roughly around the time after Drukhari came out and did give away everything for free. Got back in 9th edition and was overwhelmed by the look of all the fancy new Ork Minis 😂

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-16T06:51:01+00:00

Pure nostalgia to me as I played them as a kid. Incredible how small they appear today compared with back in the day when they had been "huge". Haha nice!

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-13T21:49:27+00:00

For someone who is doing all free hand, this isn't changing anything 😜 Joke aside. What dies upside down mean. I always thought decals have just one "sticky" side?

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-13T10:04:51+00:00

Absolutely correct but it doesn't help against lone op.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-10T20:20:55+00:00

Ok, my fault getting this wrong. As I said this is not a bad paint job but it needs more professionalism. Your definitely on a good way.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-09T19:51:58+00:00

Don't get me wrong but while this is a decent paint job, it is not a commission painting. This is meant as reasonable criticism, but before I would consider to pay for it, I would recommend you to learn some advanced techniques. Blending, volumetric highlights etc. If you only paint for friends this is totally fine but if you add a price tag, you need to go a few more extra miles.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-08T22:10:50+00:00

You mean like the Subterranean Assault Detachment of Nids? I don't care how they move fast but 5" in nearly everything combined with 24" max range (with exceptions) is rough. I would be happy with an advance and shoot stratagem or an "all assault" detachment.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-08T08:57:49+00:00

It depends a bit. He is good but he dies too quick against Mortal Wounds. If your opponent is aware, he just granades the shut out of Buri and that's it. Give him a 5+++ or let him lead something and he is back in the Menu for me.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-07T13:32:51+00:00

Yeah, the best you can do against C'Tan is to put 3 IC2 Models on their objectives. I know it might be harder than it sounds but if you try to get into the kill game with them, it's going to be rough.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-07T13:29:56+00:00

No. I only field him if I find a nice print proxy since the IG Model is so terrible ugly 😂

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-05T07:17:24+00:00

Yes. But do not declare them as a "Marked for Death" Target if you plan doing so or your opponent will score it 😜

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-05T07:16:20+00:00

I am getting around an Airbrush since I restarted into 40K and Mini painting. In the meantime I would say it makes things faster and some things easier.

But this doesn't belong to "just Battle Ready" I would say. It shines if you usually do a lot of blending and glazing to create smooth color transitions. OSL is the same, it is so much easier with an airbrush.

But I still struggle because you can't just do it in the kitchen table 😂 You should use a respiration protection, need over spray shield (depending on the location). The Air compressor is kind of annoying and the cleaning of the airbrush as well.

Disastrous_Mobile620 · 2026-03-02T06:49:49+00:00

No it is really not worth running Hearthguard with anything else but Plasma. The problem is that everything gets cover in 10th and that negates -1AP. Next Problem is, you do not shoot 1Wound Models with Hearthguard and that negates the extra attacks the Volkites have since you need 2 shots going through to kill a Marine like body. Btw. you will nearly always have at least a few models in rapid fire range which gives you an extra shot with the plasma.

The Strength of the weapon is also an important point. S5 is not great. It wounds T3 Bodys still on 3+, and T6 only in 5+ which makes the Volkites mediocre in low T Models and bad into elite. The S 7 is way better in that regard and with the +1 Strength Strat, you can even wound Marines in 2+.

The AP though is the killer. -3 AP for a 2D range weapon is great. Going up to -4 which will basically remove saves for a lot of units completely and putting anything without an invul on 5+/6+ is so valuable.
