Gravedigger Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 The pic on the previous page has an explosion, like if it was a Heavy. I'm guessing, as usual, the Orks will be spoilt for choice in the Heavy Slot. Unbound for me I guess... Looking at the artillery. I'm so hoping that last one is a bubble chukka :-) David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Bubble chukka would be soooo awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PourSpelur Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Can't you take 1hq, 2 troops and 3 heavy in one CAF then repeat? 2 hq, 4 troops and 6 heavy etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andozane Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Bubble Chukkas...wow...that would be hilarious :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyork Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 The Lifta-Droppa got resurrected by Forge World, with ridiculously complex rules compared to most of 40K, so perhaps Bubble Chukkas could make it back from the dead, too. I have a lot of fond memories of taunting opponents to risk shooting their own guns after being (possibly) enveloped by a bubble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonVilkee Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Splatta cannon. That is what I wanna see back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravedigger Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'll raise your splatta kannon ( oh so fun and time consuming) and raise you a squig a pult. Only weapon that can be fired into your army and not hurt you :) David 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasto Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I was looking and I didn't see a "Gets Hot Rule" this edition. I know in the past, if the random AP was the same as a Plasma or lower it received that rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in the past, if the random AP was the same as a Plasma or lower it received that rule. Snazz guns have always had random ap. It was a D6 and did not get hot, there was an option called blasta that subtracted one from the rolled ap and added the gets hot rule. I like that they are just straight worth while now the typical old setup cost an extra 15 points a model! Old snazz started at st5 assault 1 ap D6 range 24". Each custom job cost 5 points, +1st, +1 shot, -1 to the random ap roll and gets hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VonVilkee Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Half the points of before... Almost. Dedicated transport option, this unit isn't a power house but you still have a nob for combat. And the unit takes up less table real estate, I like my armies compact for support reasons. Differences in opinion :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 I agree in principle, CG. Then again, we don't know if shoota boyz are getting nerfed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TW_Haines Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 The idea of stormboyz assaulting flyers is what excites me. Thats a rumour I am looking forward to knowing. Will fit real nice in my Rat rod orks idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will fit real nice in my Rat rod orks idea. This is totally not going to happen. It's been a rumor since Space Marine came out and just isn't going to happen. I'd love to be wrong though.

VonVilkee Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Ooooh just noticed any model can take an ammo runt! Flash gitz are and will be all about hitting when you get lucky. They float under the radar looking super cool till they get that perfect ap then blow all their rerolls doing some surprising damage!

TW_Haines Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 I am not holding my breath that it will happen. Truth be told, boots of any kind allowed to assault flyers is out of the power curve for the rest of the armys. I want to build a ork army, just holding out tell I know what the new orks will be like. If its a shooting army, I will hold out for Dark Eldar. I want Orks to be a Assault army with effective units. Armour 14 front open top battle wagons are what Needs not to change. 14 front should let it get into range before it pops, so you can assault. Open top makes it so a multi-melts will kill it, shortly after the boys hop out. Maybe we will get a iron clad equivalent big mek=) would be cool. Open top eating a flamer to the occupants keeps balance to the ork rigs, if to many changes to armour dont happen. All and all excited about the new orks TW Haines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
