Hello all,

I'm been thinking. ?

I feel that there is a missing link between the ork stompas and the gunwagon. ?

I vote taht orks should have something more like a true ork tank. a looted Leman Russ or equililant.

--Ork Battle Tank--
Type: Armored Vehcile
Speed:20cm
Armor: 4+
Close Combat: 6+
Firefight: 5+
--Weapons--
'Uge Gun
Range: 60cm
Firepower: AP4+/AT4+
Notes:
--Notes--
Reinforced Armor

I have invented stats for one here and I was wondering what you guts thought of them. ?

The questions I debated myself are:

1.
Should it have reinforced armor?

2.
Should it go faster (30cm) or slower (20cm)

3.
Is the gun too good for Orks?

4. ?
How much should it cost in the army?

Well there is my current thinking. ?Or do your guys think the standard big gun works for well to represent all these tank like ork vehciles. ?

Thanks for any comments

(stats modified from feedback from the local techpriest)

Hi!

SM/TL had Gutrippas and Lungburstas which were "tanks". They're not in epic A?

No doubt for the same reason they didn't exist in E40k.

This is a gunwagon



This is a tank



In my mind there should be a difference between the two. Don't you agree.   :D

Yup, CC you absolutely right.

Thanks Dwarf Supreme and Primach,

Now if someone presents you in a freindly game with the above "alternate" stats. ?Would you consider them balanced and orky enough. ?

Thanks

-Lou

I'm thinking 55 points per battle Tank.

Primach,

"No no Epic A stats for lungburstas?"  I'm not aware of any

Hi!

Yes, I would CC. They are reasonable and what I would expect of such an orc vehicle.

They look good to me, but I haven't played enough games of E:A yet to really give an informed opinion.

Didn't E:A put most of the SM1 & 2 Ork Battlewagons under  Gun Wagons ?   But I agree, some of the Ork stuff is stated ... well not the way the way we'd do it !

Why incidentally not 5/5 for the main gun and knock the points down. Seeing that orks have numbers not individual quality.
