Blog Entries: 1 | Erus mentioned that alot of Chaos players will ally with Traitor guard for Apoc. I think he is right, and I'm having second thoughts on IG as allies. Considering I hate all things imperial, I really don't wanna go this route. I really like the Ork stuff coming out (and have always thought Ghazkul Thraka was one of the coolest models ever), so I'm thinking seriously about getting Orks for allies. Is this a good ideal?

Blog Entries: 2 | Depends on what you`ll use the orks for? Cheap as hell cannon fodder? ![]() As chaos seems better than or on par with orks in many aspects ![]() I wonder how flash gits would work though ![]()

Blog Entries: 1 | As I know next to nothing about the Orks, I'll tell you what I'm looking for in an ally. I need a little long range firepower, some cheap but sturdy meatshields, and a little extra hard hitting fast attack. Any suggestions?

Blog Entries: 1 | I really like the Killer Kans and Dreadnoughts. I hate the Chaos ones (that is until I get some Droppods, hehe) so I think these guys would be a good addition. Someone tell me more about them.

Blog Entries: 4 | Mostly I planned on using the orks as good looking green meatshields (plus I like the new models), Chaos as the backbone of the force, and IG for some armoured and quite possibly shooty support. I'm thinking Macharius Vanquisher at the moment, but the vulcan mega bolter looks nice too.

Blog Entries: 1 | wakim, silly boy, don't you know all my time is spent on 40k Terra? I never use Yahoo or MSN, lol. I'm guess the Kans and Dreds should be equipped for CC, correct?

Blog Entries: 2 | Well, that was my point on orks as meat shields ![]() 80+ models in 500 points, they`ll die like a gold fish in a piranha tank ![]() But they WILL be there to soak up damage ![]() I`d take possesed/chosens/havocs/termies from chaos and heavy tanks from the good ol` guard ![]()
