Codex Orks Released

After another busy 6 months of work Epic UK are proud to announce the
release of their Ork Codex. Continuing the review of the lists in the core
rulebook we found that the existing 3 Ork lists gave players a lot of
flexibility and decided that additional lists would not be added this
time. Instead a review of the current lists was undertaking and some
changes to points and stats were made.
This codex will now replace the GW Ork lists at all Epic UK event. Quick
reference sheets for the Orks will be available later this week.
Work has already begun on the next race, with Imperial Guard under the
microscope and we aim to have these lists released in December.
Also a fixed up version of the Space Marine Codex has been released. White
Scar tornado's now cost 10 points and no more Dark Angles!

Upcoming Events.

Open War XII - 31st October 2009

The next epic tournament is Open 12, run by the 1stCompanyVeterans at
Warhammer World. £15 gets you 3 games at 3,000 points. Head over to
1st Company Veterans for more details and tickets.

Epic UK GT Tickets on sale.

Tickets for the Epic-UK Grand Tournament are now on sale. This is a 2 day
event on the 28th and 29th November and will be held at the Mansfield Gas
Workers Club, home of the Dragon Slayers. The cost is £20 and includes a
buffet lunch both days. More details in the Calendar on the Epic-UK
website (Epic-UK), were you can also enter and pay via
paypal.

BRISTOL WINTER WARMER - 23RD JANUARY - is already fully booked ... yes
already fully booked! It's a fantastic start for a brand new
tournament and I feel next time, a bigger venue might be needed!!!

So that's all that's going on in Epic-UK world! As ever if you want to

Having a quick read of the Orks now.  I've not got far but i do like the option to add powerfields with oddboyz.  Very nice.  :agree:

Thanks for the comments Stompzilla. The idea was first floated at the Club Challenge earlier this year and discussed with some of the players attending. It was also noted at the time that a similar proposal appears in the OGBM list.

So the DA bite the dust? Must say they were my least liked part of the EpicUK codex.

I thought that too when reading that, but in fact it's just the Dark Angles typos that have been got rid of / corrected.

I'll still be using the generic lists for my DA then (GW+NetEA mods or EpicUK generic SM). Ork codex looks ok, very few changes to the original list. I would have liked to see the larger stompa mobs put in (NetEA mod) but it's not a major loss.

To clarify:

The DA list has not been gotten rid of! The hilarious typo has been fixed.... hence the joke "no more Dark Angles", because now they are correctly 'Dark Angels'!

Still a DA list......( they could do with cheaper Hunters though!)

I know the DA are still there, I just don't like the list so I won't use it. Generic SM list is ok and the Orks are good too.

Good work on the Ork codex guys. You've taken a sensible, conservative line but got the key changes in. I like the points reduction to Wildboyz too.
