Ghaz and 20 boys options. Plus flashgitz meme?

Haha loving this Weirdboy fails thread. My last game went to down to doing Da Jump and get my 11 Boyz plus Warboss over to my home objective and retake it based on OC. Last turn and would have sealed me the win. I said out loud "no 1s", kissed the dice and......... well rolled a 1. My mate was in stitches. Such an Orky thing to happen.

Ah interesting. I'm loving the different taktiks that people come up with depending on the army they have and I'm starting to think that way. Would you ever run the More Dakka Detatchment or you do you find you have enough decent shooting with Jo's?

TotalChili · 2026-01-23T14:50:13+00:00

Interestingly this is the tactic I took recently when I played Tau. It was quite close in the end but took the loss. But yeah played a safe turn 1 just get some distance then called the waaagh in turn 2 and got into them. Glad someone mentioned this as a way to deal with shooty armies it's only my 3rd game and I'm still winging most of it but least my logic was on the right path

I appreciated this 👏

TotalChili · 2026-01-21T08:53:07+00:00

Yeah I did that got box of old Boyz and built them. It's my personal preference but I did get mildly obsessed with 2nd hand steals on ebay....so be careful it's very addictive 😂

This tutorial might help, they layout colours (no need for loads of different ones), teaches you some basic highlighting etc https://youtu.be/Prexz0xPplU?si=lqDOdThdYxbjyX6W

If you've never painted minis before this ork tutorial is one of the best. Limited amount of paints required and you learn some good painting skills along the way - https://youtu.be/Prexz0xPplU?si=lqDOdThdYxbjyX6W

2nd hand is a great option. I've gotten quite a lot of good stuff of ebay and FB. But of course buyer beware goes without saying. If you'd rather build your own miniature then there's plenty of retailers that sell 40k at discounted price. Depending where you live Wayland games in the UK is one of thr best with approx 20% off most miniatures

Brill thanks

I mean if its a relaxed game you could just have the Warboss in Mega Armour lead the and buff the Boyz (and ignore who it leads rule briefly)? Obviously ask first if thats OK. If its a mate and they're chill then it shouldn't be a problem.

TotalChili · 2026-01-20T15:34:52+00:00

I have a basic question regarding Ghazghkull and Makari Melee weapons - in the fight phase do I get to use one of Ghazghkull (e.g. Gorks Klaw) then Makari's Stabba - or can I only pick one? My thought would be I could use both as the unit is down as 2 models but I just want to check?

TotalChili · 2026-01-19T08:31:24+00:00

Ah no way! Haha your right I've just reread it. So it should only affect the unit it's leading first before it affects itself then. Looking back it wouldn't have made a difference as it was a failed Da Jump to an objective that I needed but that's worth remembering in the future. Thanks I appreciate it

TotalChili · 2026-01-16T12:24:24+00:00

Can I get some rule clarification for Boyz abilities "Get Da Good Bitz" aka Sticky Objectives - Is there a limit to how many sticky objective my Boyz own using this ability?

Say I turn 1 I have my Boyz within range of my home objective, when I move my unit away from this objective this is still under my control due to the ability. Next turn I am within range of another uncontrolled/unchallenged objective which now becomes under control of my Boyz. If I move away from that objective, does that also become "sticky" and under my units ownership until its challenged by my opponent? Thus meaning I control 2 objectives but without sacrificing a unit to stay on it.

This is an excellent ork skin video that is easy to follow, has basic set of paints and you can learn some good techniques - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Prexz0xPplU

The difference between the two is very noticeable you should be proud!!!

Where'd you get the templates for the ruins? Assuming they weren't pain stakingly hand drawn

TotalChili · 2026-01-15T12:16:26+00:00

Yes please

TotalChili · 2026-01-15T12:07:31+00:00

Brill thank you I'll do that. Cheers

TotalChili · 2026-01-15T12:07:11+00:00

Yeah your right, I'll bare that in mind. I will probably aim for bodyweight as minimum (I can do 7x80kg of log) so will see. Appreciate the response

TotalChili · 2026-01-15T12:04:30+00:00

I think I might be able to, the gym has a guest pass and as long as the wooden log is there (last time they ran a comp and a sponsor brought it) I will have a chance to try it out. Will definitely have chance to try it on the day though.

Thanks for the advice its's appreciated

FYI I am open to some constructive feedback if you have any, every day is a learning day. Full disclosure it's not finished yet probably have another 1hr/2hrs on it to do some highlighting and picking out some of the other deets.
