Title: I miss my orks...
Post by: adamscurr on July 27, 2020, 09:37:50 AM
I was gazing at the boyz the other day and wondered how we were doing with 9th edition coming out. I really lost interest in 40k for 8th edition and was hoping to give it a go during 9th. What are you guys thinking about the rules in regards to our boyz?

Here's a pic of my collection, minus about 120 boys who are in the case... :) Mork's Mighty Mangler is just up there on the top collecting dust... Sad... :)

Still missing the orks... But I bought some brown ink (I'll post some pics below, cause borwn ink was crucial to the paint scheme)...

Looking good, can't wait to see them in action again..

If you like you can see the epic full green tide army in action.  here  (http://www.40konline.com/index.php?topic=231546.0)

Looks like the last battle with this rule set. Waiting to get the new rules to get my speed freaks back in action.

The speed freaks were battles one thru five. Had to go full green tide for number six.

Nice... But did you feel like it was moving in slow motion without any red paint? :)

Yup, pretty frustrating to not get any charges till turn 4. But, once I started getting in charge range the game quickly turned to the orks favor. Still love the krumping of my enemies  8)

Good to know, I was wondering if I was the sole survivor of the Green Tide we had for a while. Good Stuff! 8)

I got out of the hobby because my nearest gaming store was an hour away and for a while I think GW was giving the boyz the shaft... They still kind of are, since the balance report nerfs the orks... For some reason, anytime the orks "git gud" people get really mad about it... Whereas other armies have super powered lists that go unchallenged for a long time...
