Hello all, may I first make myself comfortable ( sounds of grots being beaten out of the way and trodden under foot )
Ive noticed from several boards ive been watching that there dont seem to be many orc players .. it seems most go for the stinking umans or ponzy space boys ( and a lot of eldar also ) .. Does anyone play orcs?
Once I find a gaming group in my area I will ofcourse ask you all for help in creating the greatest WWAAGGH anyone has seen in a long time ( I used to play Epic a LLOONNGG time ago ).
Oh and yes Im new here ...
Q : Whats that under your foot ... A : A squashed grot

Oh yeah...
I try to make sure my orks always outpoint my other epic armies. I'm currently finishing off four 'uge gunwagonz mobs, each with 3 supa zzap guns. Then I'll start on another 40 stands of infantry.
Welcome to the boards!

I have 9 Epic Armies, including 30 Ork Warbands in 3 Hordes. And plan to make a few new Warbands with E:A and F/W models ...

Hi Shagrat, I'm currently working on Eldar, but I've got a soft spot for Moonz and Sunz, and once the pointy ears are done, I'll be working on a small SM force i've got an idea for with Orks in the background. So far I've only ever painted a few battlewagons and the odd Gargant - and 1 converted Landa (LANDA!!!! Green is good and Thundabad is go....oh, sorry, that's and old story... ). I've got loads of boyz waiting in the wings, a half-complete gargant conversion (Deffsta), and around 30 guntrukks... and plans for what I think a supagun should be like...

Another Ork player here, with a thing for speed, I like my bikes and buggies!
Markconz, I wish I could paint that fast, it's taking me ages to do my Infantry. Still, only 4 stands left to do, I must get started on them again.

Shagrat: In addition to the above, Maksim Smelchak has a sizable ork force, including more stompas than you can shake a stick at, with some... imaginative... conversions.
I have ~5000 in bad moons (basic ork army list), ~4000 in evil sunz (speed freeks army list), plus gargants. I also have ~3000 in snakebites (feral ork list).
In short, you're in good company.
Ask any strategic of tactical questions you like. I'm sure you'll get a plethora of opinions.

Shagrat,

I also have large E-A Ork force. I originally wanted enough Stompas and Boyz warbands to field more than 3,000 points of models. I have just kept adding to them (mechanizing them with B-Fs, adding Gun Mobz, more Supa Stompas, custom building Ork Bommas, etc.) and now the group is very large.
I had high hopes the E-A would really make the Orks competitive and a little different than they were before. The differences didn't come, but I think they are adequately competitive although I really miss the early playtest versions when the Orks could field some decent tank armies. They're back to mostly rabble now.
Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak.

WAAAGH RIPSKAR! I've been a Gothic player mainly since 1999 but Da Ladz aren't afraid of getting their boots dirty. I've just got the rulebook and I'm preparing my Ork horde for landings...
