orks kill team goonhammer

Finally, while Marines can be tough a lot of the ways that players are tuning to beat them can leave them with fewer tools to push back Ork hordes, so some other matchups get a bit easier. They’re pricey but your best shooting option and a lot more resilient than Lootas. 10x Gretchin Luckily, for most units one of the rules here will either mitigate or completely nullify the weakness, leaving Ork units extremely well tuned to their roles. Big Mek W/ Shokk Attack Gun [4 PL, 84pts]: Big Killa Boss, Da Souped-up Shokka, Grot Oiler, Shokk Attack Gun, Warlord The Kommandos also provide an extra infiltrating surprise. Kill Team Tactics: Eisenhorn . Kill team is really forgiving. ‘Ere We Go – All of your non-Gretchin Orks get this rule, which lets them re-roll failed charges. Elite . Army List - Click to Expand+ PLAYER: Krisztián Vizsy If what you really want to do is pack a lot of Tankbustas or Flash Gitz maybe give these a look, but the majority of lists don’t have a huge use for them. You can make them moderately dangerous (and ones with Da Killa Claw are deadly) but still not really something you’d want to put in a fight with most combat characters – they will absolutely lose a slug fest with pretty much any character with an invulnerable save and a multi damage weapon. Shoota – Your default Ork gun. Whatever flavour of nemesis force weapon or special ranged weapon you choose, you’ll go through hordes and armoured foes alike with ease. These are a total nightmare, being able to shut down the mobility of foot slogging units and stopping you covering nearly as much ground with them. If you’ve been paying attention thus far you’ll hopefully have pieced together that Orks want to apply pressure by charging real fast at the enemy, and you might be thinking that rocket pack Orks with an auto-6″ advance would be pretty good for this. Army List - Click to Expand++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Orks) [42 PL, 762pts, 8CP] ++ While Bobby’s list is a very classic way to play Orks, it isn’t the only one, and innovative players are constantly tinkering with lists. Going big tends to make them better – at 20 models or above they get an extra attack each, taking Choppa ones to 4A, and when you have 30 you maximise the chance of your opponent missing the kill by a few models and you getting to respawn the unit with Unstoppable Green Tide, and also get more benefit when you do so. Typically this will be your Flash Gitz. Especially when you’re charging in with boyz and AP 0 weapons. TR1: 9x+1x Boyz: Tankbusta Bomb, Boss Nob (7): Choppa, Choppa, 9x Ork Boy: Slugga & Choppa (9x7) [4 PL, 70 pts] The Warlord Trait and Relic are both generally passed on. HS2: Mek Gun (15): Traktor kannon(30) [2 PL, 45 pts] All of this being said, this isn’t a terrible unit. It isn’t an unwinnable game by any means, and lists with these are still doing well, but people are also trying other units as the core to their strategies. Doesn’t matter though – 3×30 Evil Sunz Boyz with a Bike Warboss has been the solid hammer swung by most Ork lists for the last year or so, and even in Space Marine meta it remains enduringly popular in successful lists. This compliments anything that wants to get into melee outrageously well, meaning that even footslogging Boyz squads are usually going to be making charges on turn 2. by Robert "TheChirurgeon" Jones on May 28, 2020. Using Da Jump on them can send them off to hide behind terrain on an objective, and if you’re playing with magic boxes ten of these in a ruin can be a pain for some armies to prise out. ++ Kill Team List (Grey Knights) [100pts] ++ + Configuration + List Configuration: Matched Play: Kill Team + Specialists + Grey Knight [19pts]: Pair of Nemesis Falchions Grey Knight [19pts]: Pair of Nemesis Falchions. It’s better than a choppa for the same cost but if you’re giving your nob weapons you want to give him things that can do multiple damage. If you’re worried about snipers or running a mixed list with at least one Deathskulls detachment you can work around this by upgrading one to Mad Dok Grotsnik. HS1: Mek Gun (15): Traktor kannon(30) [2 PL, 45 pts] A sensible Ork player will pile in to prevent escapes. Note: Never take a Grot leader in Annihilation due to the reserves tricks people can play making leader assassinations fairly easy to pull off. If you take one it’s pretty much mandatory to pay the tax for a KFF Big Mek (who can ride inside and confer a 5++), making it a bit easier to put down, but at that point we’re into the region of 950pts+ for a model that just isn’t going to make that back in any reasonable game. Nobz have 3 attacks each and access to a ton of wargear options, with the primary draws being the choppa (cheapest), big choppa (best power-to-points tradeoff), and the power klaw (most deadly). Shokk Attack Gun – The Big Mek’s option is an absolute nightmare to go up against. Stay out of sight for as long as you can. Weirdboy [3 PL, 62pts]: 4. Space Orks Pirates, Deathskulls and future Orks - The Flashgitz were a wedding present from my fellow blogger Pandorasbitzbox (6 years ago). This is a recent successful list, taking 3rd place at Merry Slaaneshmas, and very effectively shows off how the best tools in the Ork arsenal are brought together in tournament lists. Thundercloud – Gretchin are also great cheap door openers and objective holders in Arena. So its dozens of fans never got to experience the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat for factions other than Orks. If you are looking to introduce your 40k mates to it, throw them this primer. The Goonhammer Review: Codex Space Marines 9th Edition. While they die in droves to pretty much any shooting, just the sheer number of wounds these add to the board can be a challenge for some armies to chew through, especially with some Warbosses around to use Breakin’ Heads on any that try and run, and this helps them contribute to the wider Ork battleplan of just saturating the board with a tide of green flesh. In Kill Team they require cunning and strategy to play well, with a careful mix of positioning and Tactics use. They do get a brief mention because they’re by far the funniest thing to combo with the Kult of Speed. FL1: Wazbom Blastajet (99): 2x Wazbom Mega-Kannons (2x12), Kustom Force Field (20), Smasha Gun (16) [8 PL, 159 pts] In terms of other unit options, for every 10 models you can take a tankbusta bomb, and you should because there’s literally no reason not to and occasionally you’ll punk a vehicle with Extra Stikkbombz. + Troops + While the Dread Mob is easily the most powerful of the Ork specialist detachments, this one is probably the design winner, as all of this is either interesting, powerful or both. Unfortunately, however, it falls into the trap of being a generalist trait that’s less poweful than another generalist one (Deathskulls), and also in a faction that rewards specialising detachments. The Kaptin hasn’t seen much play up till now, but Flash Gitz are a bit of a wildcard coming out of Chapter Approved, as they got a huge point cut. They'll have more of a veteran, weather-beaten look. Hopefully you’re now armed with everything you need to get out there and start krumpin’ ‘eadz. +1 Attack at S:User, AP 0. Kustom Force Fields (KFFs), which give a 5++ against shooting to Ork units wholly within 9″ of the bearer, have been a very common anti-alpha strike choice in Ork lists up till now, but almost always in the hands of a very cheap foot big Mek or a very fast and large-based Big Mek on Bike. . They’re solid melee combatants thanks to their S4, 2-attack profile, but they unfortunately got massively screwed when the 2019 Kill Team Annual raised the price of a choppa by 1 point, making them cost 7 points per model instead of 6 for their better loadout. FA1: Megatrakk Scrapjet (90): 2x Twin Big Shoota (2x20) [5 PL, 110 pts] Generally, every Ork Kill Team wants at least one and as many as three Gretchin: One to be the leader, and two ammo runts if you’re going to support heavier shooting. . But also reconsider your decisions in life. However bear in mind that a Flash Git with Gitfinda to hit on 3+ is 27 points, the same as 4 Ork boyz and a Grot. Ballistic skill changing from a 2+ to 3+ Wounds changing from 12 to 9 Normal save changing from 2+ to 3+ Losing relic of ancient glory ability completely (feel no pain 6+) Power rating going down from 9 to 8 (not sure of the points here the same as a normal contemptor? There are some units that will make players who were going to tournaments at a certain time shudder, and Lootas are definitely one of them. The ability is much harder to turn on in the fight phase and also a lot less relevant – at the point where you have multiple Ork units in combat and you’re wiping enemy units, you’re probably on the way to a win anyway! Strategically there isn’t really much more to this – if you want to charge it makes it more likely you manage it. I would add: if you are not good at painting or don’t consider yourself to be, don’t sweat it! There are a lot of words about Dreadnoughts here but that’s not what most people are after (although they are actually good on Morkanauts, which are right on the edge of seriously competitive). Competitive Innovations in 9th: Invasion GT . Weirdboys are absolutely critical to the success of any Ork horde list, mostly as casters of Warpath and Da Jump. 29x Ork Boy W/ Slugga & Choppa How to WIN (and how to BEAT THEM) - Duration: 8:42. The choices here tend to be Bigkilla Boss on a Souped up Shokka Mek, Brutal but Kunnin’ on a Killa Claw boss and occasionally Kunnin’ but Brutal to help deal with an inclement matchup. The real shooting threats on your kill team, Flash Gitz come with pretty decent guns – Snazzguns – and a BS of 4+, giving them the ability to actually make use of them. They have mostly ebbed away as lists lean in to stuff like Shock Attack Gunz more, and finally lost the (obviously unintended) ability to take two free Burnas that the codex/index combo gave them, but if going deeper on bodies gets better again expect to see them return with a vengeance. Warbosses are reasonably nasty killers, fairly cheap, and bring a critical ability to the table – Waaagh. In a world full of Marine fliers, something spicy that you can point at them and actually still hit with on a 4+ is nice to have, and being effective anti-tank on the move makes this a pretty nice get, and all the nicer at its new price. They trade off an inch of movement, making them pretty slow with only 4″, but they help your team automatically pass Nerve tests on unmodified rolls of a 6 and have access to some nasty weapons. The backbone of the ork kill team, Ork boyz are 6-point models that come armed with a choppa and a slugga, but can swap their slugga out for a shoota (you generally won’t want to do this). Each of these FAQs contains all of the most up-to-date errata and answers you’ll need to make sure that your games run as smoothly as possible, incorporating feedback from you guys and gals out there in the Warhammer community, the playtesters and of course, our studio design team. Most feature Bad Moon shooting components and Evil Sunz melee threats, and a recent trend has been to cap that off with Deathskulls for the final detachment. Thundercloud – Playing against Orks you want to exploit their low saves and leadership. Even when that isn’t the path taken, some of the other options you can use (Nobz or Meganobz in a Tellyporta) also benefit from this, meaning it’s likely to remain a key part of the arsenal for the forseeable future. Each one costs 1CP and covers a few different units, and comes with a new relic, 1-2 Warlord traits, and 2-3 Stratagems. These two abilities push Ork Boyz from being a somewhat threatening unit to being a complete nightmare, able to redeploy across the board and hit like a truck. 6x Smasha Guns There’s no way to guarantee they double shoot, capping the benefit from More Dakka. Remember that while Orks are good in melee, they’re not invincible and you want to try and pick your fights. 6x Smasha Guns There are 7 different Clan Kulturs available to Ork players, all of which have interesting rules attached to them. In missions and events that favor holding objectives over scoring kills, you can use your body count advantage to force an opponent to come to you, and put them in a bad situation. You want to aim for maximum points on the secondaries, and picking as many that you can score without having to kill enemy models as possible is best, in case your opponent tries to hide away. Even after all of this has been dialed back, Lootas are one of the premium shooting units in the Ork army, and a staple of competitive lists. Thundercloud – I’ve taken Orks to a tournament final at Warhammer World, so I would describe them as very competitive in the Arena format. FL2: Wazbom Blastajet (99): 2x Wazbom Mega-Kannons (2x12), Kustom Force Field (20), Smasha Gun (16) [8 PL, 159 pts] In maths terms, the short version of how this works out is as equivalent to re-roll 1s to hit the majority of the time for “expected” damage output, but with bigger upward and downward spikes. As a very broadly applicable source of incremental advantage, this is also a pretty good choice for smaller games or as you’re starting out with the army – it just makes your whole army a bit better, so until you’re at the point where you’re putting very focused detachments out it’s a reliable choice. Page 6 of 7 - Goonhammer Updates Thread - posted in + NEWS, RUMORS, AND BOARD ANNOUNCEMENTS +: Outstanding Heresy Article! The shooty options are definitely in the “interesting” camp – if you find yourself in possession of a shooty wagon then empowering it with Da Blitz Shouta  and Opening Salvo is a no brainer. Clan Kultur: Bad Moons If it does, this unit sees no play – you pay a large number of points in tax on one of these for weapons and a stat line that you don’t want or need, whereas the foot option can go bare bones at a vastly lower price. Built using WordPress, Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window), Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window), Army Showcase: SRM’s Knights of House Lakar and Household Guard, The Road to LVO: A Boon Tale Part 2 – Indecision and [Primed] Plastic, incredibly official Goonhammer store on RedBubble, The number of models in any other unit with this ability within 6″. That’s some fairly hefty force multiplication and these certainly aren’t bad, but they’re another unit where it’s not always clear that the premium you pay to bring one is justified over just including more models in other squads. Orks is, obviously, Da Best. If they turn out to “get there” now, the Kaptin will probably play a part in it. The Ork version of vehicle squadrons – units with this ability can take multiple models, but they only have to start the battle within 6″ of each other, and act as independent units after that. Especially if you play with someone who isn’t doing a super meta list. Yes it mounts a tonne of Dakka, yes it’ll mess up anything it hits melee with, yes it’s a terrifying icon of Gork and Mork but it’s still 870pts and for a model with no natural invulnerable save and the world’s biggest target attached to it. Chu knows his Kill Team. Leader Gretchin Heavy Flash Git w/git finder, choppa Freebooterz Flash Git Freebooterz Ammo Runt Ammo Runt Comms Loota Spanner w/kustom mega blasta Freebooterz Veteran Ork Boy Nob w/kombi-skorcha, choppa Freebooterz Ork Boy w/shoota Freebooterz Ork Boy w/shoota Freebooterz Ork Boy w/shoota Freebooterz Ork Boy w/shoota Freebooterz Ork Boy Gunner w/big shoota Freebooterz Ork Boy Gunner w/big shoota Freebooterz Combat Meganob w/kombi-skorcha, power klaw Evil Suns Veteran Kommando Nob w/power klaw, slugga Evil Suns Zealot Burna Boy Evil Suns Nob w/big choppa Evil Suns Nob w/big choppa Evil Suns Kommando Evil Suns. This new attack has to be aimed at the same target, and cannot generate itself further DttFE attacks. Got a question about how something in your army works? FA2: 2x Megatrakk Scrapjet (2x90): 2x Twin Big Shoota (2x2x20) [2x5 PL, 220 pts] With 6W each and T5 they’re also just non-trivial to deal with at range for most armies, so a lot of forces will lost the “race” if they try and win an attrition war against them (although it is worth being aware that Imperial Fist planes will absolutely eradicate them). If you are particularly daft, you can field 56 grotz and 4 runtherdz as your complete Kill Team. Orkz is Never DefeatedHopefully you’re now armed with everything you need to get out there and start krumpin’ ‘eadz. Given that it can deep strike in from a board edge, that’s a pretty inoffensive way to pack a random objective grabber if you find yourself with points to spare, and also provides a cheap way to fill a Brigade if that’s something you’re interested in doing. I kind of feel like they’ve written themselves into a corner with Ghaz’s current rules – he’s about as nasty as a foot melee character can be, but he’s still a foot melee character with no delivery mechanism and in no world, considering how full of brutally cost efficient stuff this book is, do you turn around and spend that many points on him. Slugga – The standard Ork pistol. As always, if you have any questions or feedback, drop us a note in the comments below or email us at contact@goonhammer.com. HS2: Mek Gun (15): Traktor kannon(30) [2 PL, 45 pts] Orks currently do not have access to a PSYKER unit. Shane: There is a build involving Freebooterz and Flash Gitz that makes a rather lethal combination for a shooty build Ork list. Kombi-Weapons – These combine a Shoota with another weapon, such as a Skorcha, a S5 AP-1 flamer, or a Rokkit Launcha, a 24″ Assault 1, AP-2 3 damage shot. 10x Gretchin That’s basically the summary here. If you’re just taking one as a lone ranged support option, then Heavy is also a fine choice. FA3: 2x Megatrakk Scrapjet (2x90): 2x Twin Big Shoota (2x2x20) [2x5 PL, 220 pts] The other “good” buggy, the Scrapjet combines decent shooting from its arsenal of rokkits with actually being a real threat in melee. It’s a heavy flamer on a multi-wound model. On that same note, think about having a few Kommandos on your roster so. Take some Str 5+ shooting that’s AP-1, and hoover up boyz to hit break point. The Relic is near-totally pointless. Hold on Boyz, while somewhat limited in not allowing you to charge, does let you put a huge amount of threat into your opponent’s face right at the start of the game (especially comboed with using Da Jump on another unit) and puts them on an extreme clock to do something about your army or get overwhelmed. TR2: 9x+1x Boyz: Tankbusta Bomb, Boss Nob (7): Choppa, Choppa, 9x Ork Boy: Slugga & Choppa (9x7) [4 PL, 70 pts] In combination with the Evil Sunz clan Kultur, this massively increases the speed of Ork aggressive threats, and is key to letting them close with the enemy in good time. Deffgun – The big guns that Lootas carry, these have a 48″ range and are Heavy D3, S7 AP-1, and do 2 damage. Both could comfortably cost 1 without causing any great ruction. Just by sheer volume of attacks they’ll tend to flatten anything you run them into, and if you needs some extra killing power chucking a big choppa, power claw or killsaw onto the Nob in addition to their choppa (with all three being valid options depending on spare points) lets you add a bit more punch against targets where the lack of AP really tells.
