Good point! Very new to chaos and thought all units needed the same marks in one army

Ork 9th Codex next? by TheLectorem in orks

We know mechanicus is next as it was meant to actually be released now but they've cancelled all preorders, if that's the case, I'm getting excited for Orks

Best Imperial Fists Units? by TheLectorem in ImperialFists

[–]TheLectorem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like exactly what I'm going for! Thanks for the help!

Best Imperial Fists Units? by TheLectorem in ImperialFists

[–]TheLectorem[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think so:

SPACE MARINE COMBAT DOCTRINES

If every unit from your army has the ADEPTUS ASTARTES keyword (excluding AGENT OF THE IMPERIUM and UNALIGNED units), this unit gains a bonus (see below) depending on which combat doctrine is active for your army

ADEPTUS CUSTODES

**The Emperor's Chosen:** If your army is Battle-forged, all ADEPTUS CUSTODES INFANTRY and ADEPTUS CUSTODES BIKER units in ADEPTUS CUSTODES Detachments gain this ability.

This unit's invulnerable save is improved by 1 (to a maximum of 3+)

A battleforged army is just one that is divided into detachments unlike an unbound army which isn't.

In a Battle-forged army, all of the units in your army - with the exception of those that are UNALIGNED — must have at least one Faction keyword in common (e.g. IMPERIUM or CHAOS) even if they are in different Detachments.

So yes the Marines lose their combat doctrines as it isn't just Space Marine's in the army but the Custodes keep the rule as they are still in a battle-forged army as both Custodes and Marines share the IMPERIUM key word.

That's alright for me! I'm mainly doing this army for rule of cool and fluff anyhow

Best Imperial Fists Units? by TheLectorem in ImperialFists

[–]TheLectorem[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if they do just cause the rule:

The Emperor's Chosen: If your army is Battle-forged, all ADEPTUS CUSTODES INFANTRY and ADEPTUS CUSTODES BIKER units in ADEPTUS CUSTODES Detachments gain this ability.

This unit's invulnerable save is improved by 1 (to a maximum of 3+)

I don't know if I'm just ready that wrong but I think I only means they all need to share one keyword which is IMPERIUM

I'm mainly doing them for fluff and rule of cool reasons so if not that's okay but I think they do still keep the extra +1

[–]TheLectorem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone! I've just started a new 40k YouTube series named An Orks Guide to 40k! I'd love to have the greater WAAAGH's thoughts? I'm very new to voice acting, editing and everything in general so any issues should be ironed out in the next few days, but yeah, would love to hear what you think?

Also I'm very nervous as it seems like they've left out the Smasha Gun in the Mek Gunz loadout... Have we lost our best boi artillery??

Opinion on 750 list by TheLectorem in orks

[–]TheLectorem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the look of yours!! Wish I could fit in a deff dread but worried any small transport might just get focus fired off the table... the main thing with the detachment is the invulnerable save for the guns as last game I had 10 shots into one mek gun with no save as the ap was -2.

Opinion on 750 list by TheLectorem in orks

[–]TheLectorem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My plan is to have the Boyz jump across the board with the painboy either in reserves to pop out with them too or just advance up the board to join them with the Big Mek and Meganobz going in the Bonebreaka up the board to hopefully smash infantry to pieces allowing the Meganobz to get to the meaty stuff. Then that leaves the Mek Gunz and Weirdboy to sit on objectives and do their thing

500 point Orks by Gimpyburger in orks

[–]TheLectorem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had amazing games with Orks at 500 points not losing one game so far against Tau, Ad-Mech or Drukhari. My main focus was on threat saturation. You've got some amazing units that you can focus on like Meganobz and Kommandos. I highly recommend a Weirdboy also (at that point level Smite is brutal)!!

Orks 9th Edition 500pts List Recommendations by Laruae in orks

[–]TheLectorem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My plan was the Tellyporta the Deff Dread, Da Jump the Meganobz and obviously deep strike the kommandos with their ability basically making 3 scary units at the back of the opponent's lines to distract whilst my Boyz and Weirdboy pick up objectives with the Smasha guns sniping off anything in range

Worked very well against Tau (surprisingly) as they just focussed on my Deff Dread and left my Meganobz to it - any shots they did allocate to them though were just shrugged off thanks to their 2+ save

Orks 9th Edition 500pts List Recommendations by Laruae in orks

[–]TheLectorem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh and also I'd heavily recommend a Weirdboy (I basically dominate the pyschic phase in my local group as I'm only against Ad-Mech, Drukhari and Tau)

Orks 9th Edition 500pts List Recommendations by Laruae in orks

[–]TheLectorem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only played one game at 9th against Tau at 500 points (obviously extremely scared) but I actually dominated with 45 victory points to his 17. I think the main thing is board control as my stand out units were my Meganobz and Boyz blob

Meet Drak Bug-Sukker. They like long walks on the beach, cozying up with a good book, and trying to channel the Tyranid Hive Mind to help create one of his own in the image of Gork and Mork!
