First run with Orks in 6th ed.

First run with Orks in 6th Edition

Hello all,

It was a busy week and I’ve only managed to finish one more of the lootas.  I’ll hold off on pictures until I finish the tenth and (for now) final member of the mob.  I did manage to get in my first game with the Orks since the start of 6th edition so I thought I’d share some of my thoughts and what I’ve learned.

Battle Report: 1,750 Tournament

Battle Report: September 2012Saturday was my FLGS’ monthly tournament for 40K. It was 1,750 and here’s the list I brought along. In my earlier practices I realized that my troop selection was too small and I wanted to bulk that out. Often the problem with the current Chaos codex, in order to do that I had to pull/reduce from somewhere else, namely my heavy support and also my HQs. From my previous play testing though I didn’t think it would hinder me much at all.

Flash Gitz in 6th, are they any good yet?

Flash Gitz: gunz blazinHello all,

As I map out my switch back to the orks I find myself thinking about one of the more maligned units in the codex – Flash Gitz.  I like the idea of armored, heavily armed freebooters.  The modelling opportunities alone almost make them worth fielding.  However they’ve largely been branded as a non-competitive choice.  With the change to 6th edition I think they warrant at least a moment of consideration.
