just played with the new orky 'dex last night in a staff challenge vs some 'nids...
now despite our store's WIP army which lacks trukks, big mek's, nobs, burna boyz, kommandos, tank bustas, lootas, flash gitz, boyz, upgrades, battlewagons, looted wagons - erm okay most everything!!!
i still came out on top however! my army was;
- warboss w/mega armour
- 10 boyz
- 10 'ard boyz including nob w/power klaw & boss pole
- 2x 5 bikers
- trak w/twin-linked big shoota
- deff dread w/2x ccw's + 2x additional ccw's
- deff dread w/2x ccw's & 2x rokkit launchas
- 3 killa kans; ccw's + 1 big shoota + 1 skorcha + 1 rokkit launcha
the 'nids had alot of luck - downing most of my kans/dreads with puny glancing hits, but in the end, despite my slowness and lack of any ap2, the bugs had a wounded tyrant left...
i had the cutty deff dread (imobilised by a jammy glacing hit!) warboss + 2 boyz, 7 'ard boyz & 1 kan w/rokkit launcha. more than enough to tackle the tyrant who'd already taken 2 wounds from the nob's power klaw!
i'd say the new orks are great even with crap-tacular builds like our small store army!
cheers!
