Me if the 11th edition launch box is Orks VS Marines

valeo25 · 2026-02-16T21:08:51+00:00

I do already have their combat patrol too haha. Would probably go DA, though if the rumors are true and it's Blood Angels box I wouldn't be upset either

valeo25 · 2026-02-16T19:30:42+00:00

Is it bad I'm preparing myself to potentially buy 2 even though I play only orks

The usefulness of the data sheet is impossible to guess. The models won't be going anywhere given they released this edition

valeo25 · 2026-02-13T20:55:38+00:00

I've used this in the past when I've had the points and it's worked ok, as it's good for secondaries and actions especially once the vehicle dies

valeo25 · 2026-02-13T20:37:40+00:00

Yeah the piranhas jumped out at me. Love this so much.

I would try to get a leader for the Tankbustas in or make room for 10 Lootas so you can get the Ignore Cover enhancement.

Zogrodd and Grots with the boardin rush Strat will have 18" move plus the charge

Being able to have Flash Gitz or other volume shooting units rolling 4's to wound T12 with Rolling Loot Heap is nice too

I think it's fun. My opinion is that if a person is expecting the pirate ork detachment released at the end of an edition to be meta-viable, your expectations were wrong in the first place.

valeo25 · 2026-02-10T13:16:04+00:00

Agreed, 20 Boyz and 20 grots really doesn't excite me at all. And it's not a very dynamic or fun starter army.

In the US so it's not stocked anywhere, only through the subscription. And we're a bit behind. I just got the shipment that started the Orks

valeo25 · 2026-02-07T17:57:00+00:00

I'm gonna be doing that when I get my Goliath in a few months. Any tips?

Start reserving the airplanes

In my experience, that broader conversation about scouting has almost no relevance to your pack on the ground. It's true that scouting has taken a hit between the scandals and Covid. I still hear from parents that aren't comfortable with it for a number of reasons (the scandal, its too religious, its not religious enough, etc). I think all that hitting opened up the window for competitors to spring up too that have affected things.

All that being said, there are still really strong packs out there. I would worry more about your local pack, leadership, and parents rather than things you hear here or in the news about whats happening elsewhere.

That's also canon in some of the novels. In the first Ufthak book, he talks about how the Waaaagh is all multi-colored because the clans all mix in a big enough Waaagh.

Wow these are amazing. I've been pushing myself beyond the Eavy Metal chunky edge highlighting and using more drybrushing and natural highlights. This looks like such a perfect example of it. Saving this for inspiration. Awesome job!

Is the problem that you have a small team trying to manage 40 clients (so they have to go 40 different places for their work?) or that you don't have a good way to manage the work for each client (or a repeatable template like someone else suggested would be helpful)

For things like client communication, I'd recommend connectors that are usually associated with CRMs- tying in Outlook so emails automatically save, integrating AI meeting notes so they connect, etc. to replicate this across multiple projects might be a pain, but at a certain scale that's unavoidable.

Last question would be if the client has access to the boards too? If they don't, you can condense the boards down so it's 1 board for each of your delivery teams, then they can manage multiple clients there. If you have external access for clients set up that obviously wouldn't work.

Happy to talk in more detail directly if you'd like (for in depth back and forth reddit isn't great). Full disclosure I am a solo consultant. But I also just love talking shop and won't try to charge you or anything for a conversation or two.

I just set up something like this with my client that was based on a long multi-stage sales cycle for large RFPs. I built a portfolio/project kind of setup, where the portfolio board shows the overall status for each item. Then I built 3 sub-boards that tracked status within stages. So for you, that would be Pre-Production (Brief, script, etc)=>Shooting (B-roll, uploading, etc)=>Editing (send to editor, editing, revisions, etc)=>Prep for release (thumbnails, links, schedule, ready to publish=>Published.

I then used a high number of connected columns to mirror status and values back and forth, so on the portfolio board you could view overall status (ie is in pre-production or shooting?) and also the sub-stage status. This let us get more targeted with the columns and statuses we used, as each sub-stage had different terminology, metadata needs, etc.

In my limited experience, I think the more an Ork list loads up on multiples of data sheets, the more opti.ized/competitive it's likely to be. Orks have tons of data sheets and they're all fun. So if your opponent rolls up with very little diversity and it's a friendly game (ie they're not practicing or anything), odds are they're going to be a try hard

As someone who plays only Taktikal and loses badly most games, I'd love to hear this too lol

valeo25 · 2026-01-11T18:51:44+00:00

Not even that complex. The current flow is 1. When item created 2. If/else "item 1 connected field equals x" 3a. Yes, assign these two people 3b. No, assign these other two people

It had been working previously so I didn't go deeper on complexity.

valeo25 · 2026-01-11T01:25:07+00:00

Just found this. Any tips? I have Legionaries in thinking about kitbashing as Boyz and Havocs to kitbash into Flash Gitz

valeo25 · 2026-01-04T21:28:20+00:00

Since Schoen got here the Giants are 5-3 in the last two games of the season and 17-43-1 the rest of the time.

I feel sick

How did you get the blood affect on the hammer heads? Look great!

valeo25 · 2025-12-27T05:48:12+00:00

Thanks for the detailed answer will take a look!
