Is there any additional word on this end-of-month date for the boxed set? Because that seems really bonkers.

Point taken. Though the Powerklaw costs 25. If I pull the Big Choppa and the 'Eavy Armor from the Warboss, and the Stikkbombz from the Ork Boyz (I2 isn't significantly more impressive than I1) then I can put the Mega Armour on the Warboss, and he'd still fit on the trukk with the Nobz, and wouldn't have to give up his Invuln save or extra attack. Would that work? girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Aug 17, 2012 |

Colon V posted:Point taken. Though the Powerklaw costs 25. That's a good idea, since stikkbombs were pretty laughable even before Furious Charge lost its initiative bonus. I'd also look into getting a powerklaw on the trukk nob, and maybe a few in the nob squad. I'd get the points by maybe dropping a couple of the big choppas, the bombs from the koptas, and possibly a couple of lootas (sacrilege, but smaller squads are easier to find cover for). I'd also drop the meks out of those squads, since the dreads will ideally be charging upfield while the lootas/mek hang back where they're no good to them. Things like the warphead you'll either love or hate, but gently caress it, Orks are about taking what looks fun and drowning the table in dice.

That Ork list needs more power klaws. The Warboss needs one for sure, and at least 1-2 of the Nobz in the Nob squad, plus one for each of the Nobz in the Boyz squads (unless the Warboss is gonna be attached to one of those units ...and even then). Definitely drop the Meks from the Loota squads. It takes away a Deffgun. That's not a free "upgrade" at all. If you bought 3 boxes of Lootas, just model 15 of them and take 3 squads of 5 on the board. Trukks are too fragile at 1500 points. Also, your army is in three places at once. A small group of units that are fast. A second wave of units that are slow, and a handful of stationary guys. Pick a speed and have the whole army travel at it. If you MUST use Trukks, accompany them with Planes and Bikes. If you're gonna take footsloggers and Deff Dreds, keep all the guys on foot, and take more models. Mixing and matching speeds is a bad idea. Just my $0.02.

WhiteWolf123 posted:Just my $0.02. And I see what you mean by my army being too split up. With no Trukks, I'll be able to up the model count on my units, too. Should I keep Nobz, or up to Meganobz? Slow and Purposeful means they won't be able to keep up with the rest of the Boyz, which could be a problem, and the loss of Sweeping Advance may bite me, but that 2+ armor save, and universal Power Klaws are mighty tempting. Anyways, here's the new plan: Attach the Warboss to the Nobz squad, attach the Weirdboy to the largest group of 'Ardboyz I can muster, scrap the trukks for more Boyz, split the Lootaz into three squads of 5 (to deal with flyers  ). Keep the Deff Dreadz as-is.Then, in battle, charge the Green Tide upon the enemy, possibly 'Ere We Go-ing the 'Ardboyz into somewhere inconvenient (or possibly just 'Eadbanging), while everyone else charges over the hills to smash their Choppaz and Klaws (and Dreadnought CCWs) into anything even moderately un-orky. Not sure whether I want to hang onto the Deffkoptaz or not. Fast Attack is nice, and being able to outflank my opponent could really come in handy, but at this point, I don't really even know what I'm doing with them. If I do keep them, I'm pulling off the bigbomms. girl dick energy fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Aug 17, 2012 |

Yea, those look nice as hell. Edit: For a bit more substance it looks like the CSM warband they picked is nice. The detail is off the charts and it's nice to see they've taken a bit from the cool as hell chaos warriors fantasy sculpt. TheLawinator fucked around with this message at 04:33 on Aug 17, 2012 |

Goddamn those look rad. On another note, I just picked up a dakkajet. Is there anything cool that can be done with all the extra poo poo that comes in this kit? I feel like I can almost build a whole extra plane.

Looks like GW put the final screws to the people doing data for Army Builder and that group won't be updating those anymore. So keep a look out for the official App (apple only).

My info may be out of date, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought GW only had problems with Army Builder doing the updating, they had no problem with individuals not associated with the Army Builder Business from updating it.
