Hello all,
If Orks end up being 6 pts each in the new 'Dex (as current rumours seem to indicate) you would, on the one hand, be able to field 50% more Orks for the same points and on the other hand, you would have LOTS more minis to move around every turn.
Opinions:
Would this "kill" Orks for tournaments? I, for one, always had trouble moving SO MANY ORKS every turn whenever in a tourney because of the time limit. Unlike WHFantasy, you don't have movement trays, so you have to basically move every single solitary one. Winning Armies usually have almost no models - and are heavy on tanks. I am putting easilly 150 Orks/Grotz on the table in a standard 1850 as it is - the move to cheaper (and weaker) Orks would shoot this through the roof.
Now, not saying more Orks wouldn't be cool, but I wonder if just having MORE Orks is the answer we want (in order to make Orks more competitive). It WOULD probably make the Orks a more powerful force, and we need that. However, would it also just make them harder to play as a result?
