I believe they were a micro machines style toy called "action force" or similar. I know I certainly had quite a few pieces from their ranges - still have some that I used to used for colour scheme test models rather than waste a precious leman Russ! They also did ranges of HUGE fighting vehicles. I had (might still have somewhere in the loft...) a number of them including an 18 inch long mobile command centre - think CI on steroids. Rather cool at the time & most of them have been pillaged for weaponry & useful gubbinz in more recent years I havent seen them around in many yeas though.

Hi Ib, I can't remember any Bloodaxe lists at the official site. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

I'm not really sure. I think I heard something.... Maybe it was just a few loose ideas about what such a list could contain ...Or it could be something I've imagined.  Anyway I suppose Blood axes should have access to a few Imperial vehicles -Maybe with some sort of a penalty with lower armour, worse at shooting or something. Stormboyz and Kommandoz would be a must! Also they should probably have a different command structure a bit more organized or disciplined than regular orks. Maybe something to represent the fact that other orks won't obey Blood Axe Nobz... Dunno, just a few ideas.  Cheers!

The only thing I can see on the SG site is the reference to the release in 2009. Of course that is all out the window now anyway.  I guess I am going to have to cobble one together. Problem is, I am not an Ork player, and the guy who is has very limited knowledge of Epic:A. So any suggestions would be good. Also, some convincing arguments for me to explain to him why he can't have the exact same stats as the IG equivilant. Which is how Epic40k did it. *sigh*my 2cents, iblisdrax |

I have an interest in the Blood Axes, and a reasonable Ork knowledge. Let me know if you want to bash a few ideas around. I would be interested in getting this together. There were a few thoughts on the Vault forums, generally about Kommando mobs, but nothing came of it. Shame. |

Well, he has Leman russes , some rhinos, and some basilisks converted to orky use, so I would start with those. Oh, and some Land Raiders, too. So, would you fiddle with the weapon stats, or do something like strip the RA from the Russes and the LR's ? my 2cents, iblisdrax |

I would probably drop all Ranged attack to-hit numbers by one and increase both CC and Firefight by one. They are _Orks_, after all, even if somewhat more disciplined. That discipline should IMO be taken into account in the formations. |

Personally, I would either drop the ranged to-hit values, or the actual range of the weapons, and reduce the armour by one, and then increase the CC value by one. Alternatively, I would treat them as if they were Battlewagons, or categorise them into areas such as 'captured transport' - and then allow the use of Rhinos, Chimeras, etc. |

I have been looking at this a bit more. My suggestion is simply to use the stats as they are for Imperial vehicles, except swap the guns over for Big Shootas and other Ork weapons. This would not change the points value too much, and if you did this and 'rounded down' - for example taking the Heavy Bolter off the Chimera rather than upgrading it to a Heavy Shoota (if you upgraded the Heavy Bolter to a second Big Shoota, a Chimera becomes a Battlewagon) - the points values could remain largely unchanged. But, this would need to be done on an individual level, looking at each vehicle seperately, but I think that this would be good as it would stop vehicles which are too powerful from being looted. |

I would go with the battlewagon/gunwagon idea. just orkify the imperial vehicles and use the normal ork stats. I would, however, add a kommando mob. Something along the lines of 6 models for 150/275/500 would be about right. Upgrades would include 0-1 nobz, gun/battle/flakwagons, deth koptas, and fortresses. The rest of the list would stay the same. Just my 2 cents. |
