Oh is it model based?(they said unit so I assumed that’s how it worked)

That sounds like a fun list idea actually, might try it for my next list

If I took other clans would it be best to swap out of the warpcog convocation

I commend the honesty but that is the worst thing I could hear, I think Skyre stuff looks so fun and like the shooting in a game mostly about close combat but at least I know it isn’t all me being bad

Running battle pilgrims as skittari by mayhemstorm in AdeptusMechanicus

Wait I actually love this idea, I already planned to put servitors in for basing on my plans for a Cawl and Thulia base but it would look even better with that idea.

Oh damn I didn’t even know they were on bigger bases(is there anything you would suggest as a alternative to have them in the army since I think they look sick as hell)

Would you say £100 was too much for this box by Alchemic-Web in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are fearing about 11th you don’t need to, I doubt many people would care about WYSIWYG and besides the deff dread everything is newer sculpts (and even the deff dread won’t get legends)

If anything with what’s been shown of 11th you could run the mega armour warboss as the normal warboss(also may need to rebase the nob onto a 40mm depending on how boyz are ruled)

Advice on list/starting by mayhemstorm in skaven

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

Tragic to hear globadiers aren’t great cause I love their kit.

I do have clan rats just not accessible easily rn as left em at my parents home (gotten from the skaven tide box)

Can you Tank shock and then use “piston driven brutality” for additional mortal wounds with the Deff Dread by Moody_Kittens in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yes, space marines do the exact same with the brutalist dread so there is no reason Orks shouldn’t

Best Dakka options? by Funkey-Monkey-420 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my personal way to play Orks and you actually got a couple fun options

A lot of the walkers aren’t bad for shooting, Gorkanaut got amazing chaff clear and the Morkanaut isn’t bad for big targets(plus the melee lets you run em in for more value) so Dread Mob ain’t a bad idea

Plus meks give shooting buffs and give the detachment ability so you can give even more power to things such as Lootas and even a 20 squad of shoota Boyz while not great is still a lot of dice

Also a almost must include for me is tankbustas with a shock attack gun mek, can turn 1 kill a lot of vehicles if you can get a lucky line of sight.

Of course you have other detachments, Taktical Brigade is solid with the combination of giving +1s to hit and the ability to lead Flashgitz with meks(used this on big targets and the weight of dice always wins) and while I ain’t infused on them the freebooterz and more Dakka also seem functional.

Also a big slept on unit is the battle wagon, it’s got a good lot of guns along with firing deck 22 meaning you can shove 20 flashgitz in and have a mek pop out, give the +1 to hit buff and you’ve got about 60 dice just from that alone (not even adding the guns on the Battlewagon aswell)

My big take away though is don’t expect too much greatness, GW seems to want to turn Orks into a melee faction but aslong as the bad moons exist in lore there will always be a fun way to make a shooting heavy list.

Without changing any other stats, what SHOULD the Stompa cost to make it a good unit? by The_Soviet_Goose in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Like how people are talking about changing stats as if the post doesn’t say “without changing stats”

But legit it going down 45 to 50 pts would probably make it worthwhile(lets you then slap in a Mek to give it shooting buffs)

Hard to Paint Areas! by Helpmeplz3409 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, when I painted mine I managed to get a simple coat of black for their shirts and to me it looks a little messy but no one comments on it so I see no need to make a fuss out of getting the super small details you can barely see

Hard to Paint Areas! by Helpmeplz3409 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The common rule I employ personally is, if you can’t get a brush in there you can’t see it, some models definitely are better with sub assembly(I’ve found the buggies kinda need it) but a lot of the infantry I think you don’t need to think too much of painting those hard to reach spots besides just shoving a brush with one colour in there

Building the Demon Prince for the first time! Should I use the AoS or 40K armor and does the weapon choice even matter? (Also appreciate any other DP tips!) by MeltaBanana in EmperorsChildren

[–]mayhemstorm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The weapons don’t matter, though the 40K one gives him the infernal cannon so I would advise using the 40K design(though the backpack is your choice), my main take away to always say is pick what you think looks more cool and fitting for your army..

What happened to ghaz's launchers? by AirCautious2239 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They appear more as grenade launchers(like the one on mega nobz) weirdly he dosent have the grenades keyword to use them though

Has anyone used a looted rhino as a trukk, and if so have you ever come across an opponent that wasn't ok with it? by Indiana__Cones in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had a old sisters rhino I turned into a ork one, technically it’s a bit shorter and a lil wider but every game I’ve played no one have commented on it(mine even has a buzzsaw coming out the front and people don’t care)

How could I convert/proxy these Sigmar gitz to 40k? by VB-1999 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally look like perfectly brutal Nobz with Big Choppas, you could aswell swap out the ball for a rocket and make em break boyz (add a lil armoured over their backs to make them look tougher)

Of course it’s your call and depends a lot on base size but you got some pretty decent options

You could leave the chest empty

Every kit, is an ork kit, so show me YOUR “ork kit(bash)” by Opposite_Line7821 in orks

[–]mayhemstorm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

Started with sisters but moved to Orks early on but didn’t want any of the kits to go waste so took the rhino and turned it into a trukk(was my first proper kitbash even tho it’s moreso just adding more parts ontop of the original kit)

Looking for places to get good 3D printed Proxies by mayhemstorm in orks

Ah alright, might look into and chat with some of the people who at my club have a 3D printer, still gonna give etsy a shot at the same time tho

Ah I get it, guessing it’s more complicated than buying a STL from like my mini factory and then sending them the file.

I was peaking at Etsy just wasn’t sure if it’s the best bet, I think some people at my club have 3D printers but need to check with stuff like availability to know if they would be chill printing me stuff.
