My orks where supposed to enter a "friendly" tournament this weekend. It'll be 1vs1vs1, you know.

This is what I am up against:
round 1: Space marines and bloodangels
round2: bloodangels and imperial guard
round3: space marines and space wolves
round four: Tyranids and imperial guard.

Does this imperium get on your nerves too? I mean guard is still ok, but in combination with all those marines, its too much of the eagle! :huh:

That is pretty crazy, but you know kids these days, they just don't get how fun actually 'playing' 40K is ;)

Nothing wrong with the guard....

Marines, however, are everywhere, there's 5 marine chapters in my local little gaming group.....

damn them all...

On the birght side, seeing a Space Marine player's face when a huge mob [say, 20] of [around 8-10 ish, being vague to avoid copywright infingement] point Ork Boyz ploughs into his terminators, and you say...

"That's 60 S4 I4 attacks, reducing your armour save to a 4+"

^_^


WAAAAAGH!

Chek this out, stinky, this is the waaaagh! I'm gonna field ^_^

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH!!!! Gangsta Lord Bassik:
Warboss, heavy armor, power claw, slugga. Guarded by 5 nobz with the same equipment, put in a trukk ^_^

25 sluggaboyz ^_^
25 sluggaboyz ^_^
30 gretchin+1 slaver ^_^
30 gretchin+1 slaver ^_^
9 warbikes+1 warbike/w nob with powerclaw and no guns on the bike ^_^
3 killer cans with scorcha's. ^_^

Like it buddy? ^_^ 131 models. ^_^ I think I'll be facing about 25 space marines a army? good-good ^_^

The kunnin' plan is that the boyz use as much cover as possible. When not possible, they will use the grotz as cover ^_^ Meanwhile, from the other side, 10 warbikes, a trukk with nasty orks and 3 killer cans are on their way to wreak major havoc. Again, they will use terrain to stay out of enemy fire. I think this 'll work ^_^
If a ork mob survives and charges, I have exactly 100 attacks! I think that will kill even a terminator squadd(they'll keep armour save 4+ only anyway ) ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^

I am suddenly looking forward to the tournament ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
This will be sweet ^_^

I hate space marines, the best armies in 40k are Chaos Dev and Orks WAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Though I dislike Orks for beating my Dg army, stupid killa kans.

*grins*

Good luck!


WAAAAGH DA BASSIK!

I don't even play (or like) 40K, but that really stinks! thank goodness my local gamers all play different armies (most of them)...

Bas, I almost had a seizure when I saw that many emoticons in one post. Like the ^_^ , eh? ;) Hehe...

Space Marines are rediculously common. Why?

1) They are the army that is (debatably) strongest rule wise (especially Chaos SM).
2) GW shoves them down our throats
3) They're a cheap army to start and easy to play; perfect for younger kids

I think its just stupid. Fluffwise there are HOW many space marines in the world compared to everything else? I forget what the ratio is for human:space marine but its some ungodly high number. I can't even imagine what it is compared to the 'Nids and Orks. It's sad that when we go to our local stores/tournaments that 95% of the armies we see are some form of Marines. I demand equal representation for the other armies!

However, this thread shouldn't just degenerate into a SM complaining session so I'll comment on Bas's Ork list: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
...And all this time I thought there was only one way to "retire" from the Council! What you call "retire", I call a "stay of execution"..whats in a word? DM Mik!

Nah, SM aren't that bad... It's just that their commercial value (Dawn of War anyone?) is ridiculous high and this will mean nothing else, but cold hard cash for Games Workshop. Although it made me lose a bit of appeal for my 13th Company Space Wolves, it is the full right of Games Workshop to do so. Just as long as they keep those marines out of the hands of powerplaying scum *grunts*... remember that GWhobby.net link I once gave you, Bassik? Just plain nasty!

Anyways, I'll do another comment then all that screaming:

Go Bassik, go Bassik, go go go! :P

S'nkeep, your decission to move this topic was silly and unneccesary. I posted it in General Warhammer discussion. This is a general warhammer discussion. Not a off-topic discussion. please be more carefull in the future.

Bassik, the ghost in the machine that watches the moderators ^_^




I don't mind playing chaos marines(we don't have that many) but I never played against a all khorne army. We have a undivided player(my wife) and a nurgle player, and both armylists are rather fluffy then cheesy ^_^ They are actually very cool, especially the annihilator tank with the pins and the signs OMG! and the use of deamons is even cooler. Reminds me of the Luca Turilli album "Prophet of the last Eclipse"
