Ork Fighter Bomma in action

I have been working on my Ork Fighter Bomma for years now.

Though not finished (in the sense can any model be finished), it was in my mind in a state ready for the gaming table.

At a recent game it took to the table.

We used the Apocalypse rules for it and I was well impressed with its performance.

Less impressed with its performance in the second game, when dropping its bombs it took out my Orks and not the enemy Imperial Guard!

Using the new Apocalypse bombing template (the one that consists of five circles) was an interesting experience and the rules certainly worked for me (even when they didn’t work in my favour).

Looks like Simon will need to get some kind of anti-aircraft defence.

Ork Burna Boyz

A squad of Ork Burna Boyz advance through the undergrowth during a recent game.

The new Ork Codex changed the Burna Boyz rules quite a bit. One change I did find useful was the ability to have some Meks on board. And as Meks can try and fix broken Ork vehicles, my Ork Burna Boyz are now more like a team whose main job is to fix Ork vehicles on the battlefield.

In the past few games they have done a good job and fixed a couple of vehicles including my Gunwagon.

Ork Kommando with Big Shoota

At GamesDay 2006 I purchased a box of Ork Kommandos. I recently got the Kommando with Big Shoota to add to the force.

I put the whole model together. I added some slate to the base.

The next stage was to give the model a black undercoat.

Epic Skorcha

An Epic Skorcha crawls through the ruins of an Imperial City.

This is from my Epic collection.

It was a simple paint job, a black undercoat, followed by a drybrush of Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal. Various details were then picked out in red and browns (and Goblin Green for the Ork).

Plastic Deffkoptaz

I mentioned in a posting in early May that there was a “possibility” of plastic Deffkoptaz, well here’s a photo of the forthcoming plastic Deffkopta from the (rumoured) new Warhammer 40,000 fifth edition boxed set.

I have to admit I am not that impressed.

They look a lot smaller than the original metal variants, and more like the (new’ish) Epic Armageddon version.

Of course they are plastic and therefore have conversion potential.

Ork Kommando with Burna

At GamesDay 2006 I purchased a box of Ork Kommandos. I recently got the Kommando with a Burna to add to the force.

Having put the model together, I added some slate and modelling sand to the base.

Ork Kommando with Burna

After much thought I decided I would stick the fuel tank on the back of the Ork as painting it separately seemed a lot of extra effort.

Epic Kult of Speed

I can’t believe that my Epic 40000 Ork army is nearly ten years old now! I do have Epic models which are older, but I used them for Dirtside. It was Epic 40000 which I really liked as a ruleset for Epic.

Here are some of my Ork forces, part of a Kult of Speed, in the main buggies and wartrakks (though you can see a Skorcha in the background as well)
