Just a query if anyone has used the battleships that were released for the Orks? I still haven't got around to buying myself one (I really should get it) and so haven't any experiance yet. I cant wait though, I am currently reworking my Ork fleet. Attempting to convert ships etc etc. |

Shadow-Hunter, I did try using one of the new Ork Battleships (using a proxy since I didn't have the lead) during the BFG campaign that was disasterous for my small Ork fleet. I thought that they were utter drek, just more of the same old stuff that is doomed to Epic-40k style mad rushes to attempt to enter CC. Sure, they're tougher than other ships, but the cost curve isn't good. Of course, I only tried it out once and I'm sure that there must be some use for them. After all, GW would never cheat the Orks? Like giving them a skimpy new Codex? Right? Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

Personally I would convert my own if I was planning to start an Ork fleet in BFG- I don't like the new models all that much, as they seem rather below the great standard Fanatic's BFG models have been at, with the new Voss ships, (which I now love the look of), etc.....

StormSeer, I'm not a huge BFG fan. What are the new Voss ships? Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

Voss ships are the new ones released for Armageddon with the different prow design- The Apocalypse & Oberon BBs, Falchion escorts and the unreleased light cruiser- the Endeavour.... They are built on or around the Voss Forgeword, thus the name.... A link: Falchions... Something else cool I saw when finding that; Liber Chaotica: Slaanesh special edition -rather cool looking, I think you'll agree....

That Falchion is a great looking ship. Are the rules for those ships going to be in this new co-allation of past articles I've heard about? I hope so, I dont want to try and find and buy a load of old BFG mags. I am going to reserve my oppinion on the Ork B.ships, until I've seen one in my hand painted. I have always changed oppinions once I've painted models. And I have a feeling I will like it once it was completed. I must admit I dont 'hate' it now. |

Yeah, I think its BFG: Armada you are thinking of, and I would say that they will be in it, as it'll contain rules for all the ships with models currently available... |

Good. Its far too annoying having to lumber around 5 or so different mags etc to be able to game. |

It would be a very good idea to have all of the rules consolidated in one volume. When we had our BFG campaign, I xeroxed all of the Ork rules and put them in a 3-ring binder to have them all in one spot. I made "Da Ork Battul Bible." I plan to do the same with my Necrons if we get another campaign going. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |
