Orks vs Chaos Space Marines with Daemon allies Picture Batrep!


This one's a really old batrep, so I've forgotten a lot of details I'm afraid.
Anyways, it's my beloved Orks against my buddy Caspers Csm+daemons!
On the top picture my lootas (burnas standing in as lootas, anyway) take up a pretty darn good position for raining dakka on the enemy.


The oh so brave Word bearer chaos space marines form a konga line behind their leader in his rhino as they begin the approach towards the Ork line.


My, at the time, only primed Ork warbikers dash out, coming near an archeotech ruin, triggering some toxic defence system that kills two bikers and puts a wound on the nob!
He then redeems the blunder somewhat by sniping the csm champion in the konga line with his dakka gun.


My boyz pour out to respond to the nasty threat of the Chaos, gleefully cheering as it looks like it could be a good scrappin' ahead! 


Pink horrors appear from the warp to join the fray, next to the herald of Tzeentch! ...


three flamers of tzeentch also materialize, but they do so next to the unit of boyz. Luckily they scatter and so their disgusting flame attacks don't do as much damage as they could have.
My warboss and Nobs decide to jump out the looted tank and mow down these pesky daemons before they cause any serious harm to my boyz.


the Chaos space marine Rhino approaches as the Nobs and warboss slay the Flamers. But as they're about to hop back into the looted tank...


The driver decides to Press dat'  and drives off, right into the main body of the enemy army. It is immediately destroyed on the csm's turn.  This is also really bad because my warboss was wearing Mega armour, giving him a 2+ save but also the Slow and purposeful special rule.


instead of charging into the soft and squishy (and very shooty!) Pink horrors, my warboss now has to fight the Warlord of the word bearers in a challenge instead!


My warboss slay the Chaos lord in single combat, only to be assailed with the combined firepower of the pink horrors and the chaos space marines.


The nobs slowly get whittled down from the shooting and the close combat that follows.
But the warlord stands firm, killing pink horrors and traitor marines left and right!


all by himself versus both marines and daemons? Not a problem if you're a super badass Ork warboss!
He actually kills them all eventually! He would probably had died if it wasn't for the brave warbiker nob who managed to kill the csm champion who had a powerfist, earlier in the game!

WAAAAGH!

My Ork army, so far!


A snapped a couple of pictures before the latest battle of my entire army of Orks so far and this is what I got!



One of the earliest thing I got was Killa kans because they're super cool  and have ballistic skill 3, wohoo!
with AV 11 they're actually pretty good as the enemy has to direct its heavier weaponry towards them to bring them down, they only have two hull points each, but as there's three of them and they cost about 45-55 points each and roll in a walker squadron so it's really like having 6 hp... kind of!
despite only having weapon skill 2, they still hit on 4+ against most things, and do have strength 5 (x2 because they have dreadnought close combat weapons) and ap 2, so they're actually good to get stuck in with against some targets, especially if it's a unit that can't hurt them in melee (anything below strength 5!)


There's the good ol' looted tank that I bring as a transport for my warboss and nob bodyguard. I mainly picked it over a trukk because of AV 11 instead of 10, meaning measly bolter fire and the like can't glance it to death, it can also be kitted out with a boom gun if I feel like foot slogging my warlord and nuking stuff with the tank instead.
I have about 8-10 nobs and a pain boy but I usually just run 8 nobs with 'eavy armor, a skorcha/shoota kombi-weapon, one with a powerklaw to give it some more bite, and sometimes a whaaag banner because having a silly large amount of attacks hitting on 3+ and 3+ again on the charge (against MEQ) is pretty brutal, and then you add the powerklaw after that for mop up.
My warboss almost always have cybork body, 'eavy armor, a skorcha/shoota, powerklaw, attack squid and a boss pole. Sometimes I give him mega armour if I feel he needs it. which he will do against that pesky force staff... my tactic with these guys are simple. drive them up, lol at Don't press dat, jump out, fire the skorchas to kill stuff and then charge in and trample everything! WAAAAAGH!

I recently got a Wierdboy because psychic powers are fun, and even more so when they're random. Very Orky! I mainly wanted him to boost my army some and maybe give me a random Waaagh here and there, which can be super useful once my Dakkajet is out because it makes it fire twice as many shots.


I also have 10 lootas for fire support, very useful for dwindling down enemy units or taking out large targets and flyers, I don't ever NOT bring them because they're amazeballs.
I got 10 burnas that desperatly need a transport right now. they're kinda meh because of their small number and high cost, but right now they get to be the Wierdboyz bodyguard, their ability to turn their burnas to ap3 power weapons is nifty, so with the wierdboy they either get some ranged firepower from him, maybe a +1 attack or they could even get to deep strike mid mission. Could be good.

I have about 30 regular boyz, I usually run them on about 20 with a nob (powerklaw + bosspole is a must)

I got (so far) only 3 Ork warbikers, but I still love these guys. A bigger unit would be pretty great, altough kind of expensive, as these three, one of them being a powerklaw toting nob, cost almost as much as my Dakkajet!

I also just custom made two Big gunz. two Lobbas to be precise, but ironically enough I've only played them as kannons. because they have higher strength and ap, and are cheaper. But I will definitly run them someday as I meant to, as lobbas.

Last but not least (because I have a Blood Axe army), I have 10 Kommandos, with my home made Snikrot leading them. They're not that super great, but because of snikrot they're a good threat to enemy units who want to hang back, and because Snikrot is base strength 5 with around 5-6 attacks, and strength 6 on the charge, he can actually hurt tanks! and I always bring to kommandos with burnas, for either template use or power weapon support if they run into something nasty.

So that's my entire Ork army so far. Happy wargaming and feel free to leave suggestions and advice!
WAAAGH!

700 pts Orks vs Blood Angels Picture Batrep


Played a small 700 pts battle agains the Blood Angels, it was a smaller table and line of sight was pretty poor due to many small rocks jutting out of the ground. 

I brought my warboss,nobs in a looted wagon combo, as always. My lootas, 20 boyz and 10 'ard boyz to protect my new Wierdboy (that I upgraded to a warphead for 30 pts so he could reroll his psychic power, because Orks cast a random power on a D6, and rolling 1 is bad).

My first mistake I did was bringing lootas to such a small battlefield with so much terrain blocking LOS, as they had to move up twice before they could do anything really, which meant two rounds of snapshots and getting really close to the enemy.



I put my 20 (shoota) boyz on the right flank, and before they could get around a particulary large rock, they got assaulted by... Assault marines, and I lost pretty badly because of the high number of attacks, but the boy held for at least one turn.



A tactical marine squad had moved up into some ruins in the centre, and my wierd boy and his 'ard boyz (or for fluffnes sake, mad boyz) headed in that general direction with some cover fire from my lootas. On the first turn he had gotten of a zzzap, killing a few marines, but as they fired their guns and psychic powers before charging I rolled a 1 on the wierd boyz psychic powers, luckily I had a reroll for just this occasion...
And I rolled another 1, blowing up half of the 'ard boyz (who had a 4+ armor, but the blast was ap 3) right before the charge. in which the rest of that unit got killed. Oh you, Orks!



My second mistake was putting the looted wagon on my left flank, because what I didn't see was that the way they went was a dead end for the tank, so the Boss and his nobs had to jump out and walk. Which hurt pretty badly as the pesky stormraven entered play and gunned pretty much everything down as the assault marines charged the lootas so they didn't even get a chance to shoot at the flyer.
The warboss and nobs did however get into close combat with the terminators and the librarian. That ended pretty badly as well however because the librarian had a force staff. using a psychic power to get it to strength 10 and he then spent is other force token to use the force weapons power to give it instant death. killing the warboss in one blow!
The nobs held out pretty good though and managed to down a few terminators before getting wiped out as well.


Blood Angels Victory!

Orks vs Tyranid Picture Batrep


Played a 1000 pts battle against the Tyranids, first time engaging them and it looked pretty awesome with both my rather large Ork army squaring off against a pretty damn large amount of nids.
I think he brought something like this
a flying hive tyrant, a few hive guard, possibly raveners, or they might have been proxied as hive guards, a big ol' pile of hormogaunts, a unit of genestealers and tervigon, and I think a tyrannofex (it stood in the back and shot at me, it was his warlord as well)

my list consisted of 2 units of 20 boyz (nob+bosspole & powerklaw...always!)
3 warbikes (Nob + powerklaw) , because they're fun and cool. and I had a few points to spend.
my warboss and 8 nobs, one with a klaw and one with a skorch/shoota, in a looted decked out looted wagon with 2 big shootas and a skorcha, to get those pesky swarms! Also my trusty Lootas, because they're so awesome.
I also tried out my dakkajet for the first time. I don't regret doing so at all!


the mission was The Relic. And he got first turn, moved up his hive tyrant right infron of my boyz, and then pretty much everything else just ran towards my line. The Hive tyrant came under a ton of fire as the boyz, lootas and even the warbikes lit up the sky, finally bringing the tyrant crashing down, it died instantly from the fall. 


my boyz then got pretty beat up and fought against these guys above, not really doing much more than killing one of them while losing quite a few in return.

the warbikes sped past the battle and into another set of three semi large Nids, probably hive guards with some sort of gun, the bikers didn't fare to well either sadly, but they at least lasted a few rounds, until the tervigon reached them...


my other boyz mob got charged by the genestealers, and got slaughtered and then overran as they tried to flee. Sad day to be a greenskin it seemed... Or not since they find it to be a good time whenever there's a propa' scrap!


My nob and warboss jumped out and took on the genestealers, killing quite a few with 2 skorchas and a few slugga rounds. And then managed to stomp out the rest in bloody melee.

my lootas, despite having a pretty darn good position didn't do very much, they fired at the gaunts mostly, and at the tervigon.


My killa kans avenged my other ork boy mob by shootin' and charging in melee with the hive guard (or whatever that was). My dakka jet also made it in and with a mighty waaagh it shredded the tervigon to pieces. my looted tank did 'Don't press dat!' and drove off towards the gaunts...without the warboss and his nobs inside, so they slogged towards the relic, and there was not really much that was going to stop them from taking and keeping it the next turn. And so my opponent conceded!
Ork victory! WAAAAAAGH!

Pool table Batrep - Orks Vs Blood Angels


This is an old battle I played before the summer of 2013. It was during a painting and play night, the larger table was occupied by a warmachine battle so we took to the ol' pool table and fought it out!
This was the first time I played against Anders and his Blood Angels, his army list consisted only of assault marines and sanguinary guard. bull rushing Orks turned out to be a bad idea and he lost pretty badly, but boy can those blood angel assault marines dish out a high number of attacks!


My Ork list consisted of two mobs of Ork boyz, 3 killa kans, 10 lootas and a Looted tank with my Warboss and his Nobs in it, I think I had a Pain boy as well. At the time I didn't know what a death star a fully kitted warboss with 8 nobs and a pain boy giving them cybork bodies and FNP was... ooops! >:D

Ork Lootas!





Made myself a custom set of Loota boyz, with assorted guns. two Landspeeder assault cannons, a couple of shootas with rokkits attached (taken from the dakkajet), a really big shoota with yet another rokkit. a huge melta from a chimera, and some bolters attached to shootas as well. the Mek has a modified Dark Eldar dark lance for a custom mega blasta and is sporting some badass aviators as well :P
Not done with the painting on these, I usually just start out with some basic colours such as skin, main colours and getting the guns to look ok.

Kit-bashing is the best!
