I also don't really have any interest in playing against anyone that I don't already know cause this game is way too much of a time investment to spend it with random people.

I just played against these guys with these 1950s looking robots that shot hundreds of bullets, doing mortal wounds on 6s because of some stratagem what the gently caress is going on. Kind of melted my death guard horde-ish army. Real curve ball there, casual game buddy. They look cool though.

I won't say Orks are going to steamroll every single army type, but they're very capable of putting up a competitive game against most armies from the games I've played and also watching battle reports. If you loving love rolling dice, and then potentially rolling more dice, you're gonna have a lot of fun, especially if you manage to get a Dakkastar (25 Loota's, made through the Mob Up Stratagem, with the More Dakka strat applied to them) into position to shoot priority targets. Or just Da Jump a mob of 30 boyz with choppa's into some infantry and throw around ~120 dice just for their hits (assuming you don't get overwatched super badly)

I've been going over my first forays into building and painting, and I'm getting increasingly annoyed by, well, everything about the Kastelans. I want to repaint them to fit in better with my other Mars forces, but I also want them to be of the shooting variant, since they're pretty much my only melee unit, and I'd rather just go all in on the dakka. Has anyone tried converting Kastelans from punchybots to dakkabots? What is the best / least worst way of doing it?

Haven't gone back but I should give it another try... maybe? IDK people are weird.

ElBrak posted:Now that the new Ork codex is out I think I will start playing again. Looking forward to being disappointed! Orks will gently caress poo poo up. They are pretty strong, and the 30-Boyz example can be made into a 40-Boy mob through the Mob Up strategem. I was so disappointed with the last Ork codex that I wrote my own, and this one seems even more fun, flavorful, and strong than mine. If I still played Orks, I'd be fuckin' ecstatic. The new sculpts are baller, everyone can focus on their favorite aspect of list building and play, there's a ton of flexibility, and Orks can poo poo Command Points like a proppa (War)Boss. Ghazk, those Grotcanicus are incredible. Anyone here would throw our looted knights in with that lot any day, holy poo poo o7

If they don't change it from the index, a normal squad can take 3, dominions can take 5, and it's already one of the best options as it is.

Yeah that’s what I was expecting. 3-5 is okay and a good Strat. Any more would have been bordering on silly. Another Primaris-killer, throw it on the pile!

Veteran Intercessors sound cool and good, and Target Sighted is really loving good. With reroll bubbles a 10-man is putting 5+ wounds on most characters with contemptuous ease.

inscrutable horse posted:Has anyone tried converting Kastelans from punchybots to dakkabots? What is the best / least worst way of doing it? I've seen either on shapeways or thingiverse wrist-mount blasters you can use to make them serve double purpose. Otherwise you should be able to just xacto knife them off, though I recall the rear was a bit concave so might be a bit messy to get at the post of the wrist joint and depending on how much glue was used. From there you could just throw some 1/4” flat magnets in.

darnon posted:From there you could just throw some 1/4” flat magnets in. I'd absolutely recommend this. I magnetized all the arms and weapons on my Kastelan's, so I can easily swap between dakka and punchy. It was really easy to do while assembling them, but it might be a bit more work having to get them in place on fully-assembled robots. Is anyone else disappointed in Admech's Cybernetica Cohort detachment? Turning Heavy into Assault doesn't help you when Kastelans can't move at all when in Protector Protocol. I was hoping it would allow Battle Protocol changes to take effect immediately, rather than at the start of the next battle round. Wasn't that the behavior of the equivalent detachment in 7e?

I have played 4 games with my Orks since the codex dropped and I have won all 4 of them. Between "Dakka Dakka Dakka", my Death Skulls re-rolls, Da Jump, and the Unstoppable Green Tide strat, you can get some really swingy turns. Plus, I love rolling lots of dice.
