Finished putting them together…
I have eventually put my Forgeworld Epic Ork Bommerz together.
They were slightly fiddly to put together, but the pieces did fit well there was very little flash or cleaning needed.
I will be giving them a white undercoat and painting them in an orange colour.
This is a shot of my Lizardman Terradons.
The first part of a Warmaster Lizardman army…
Ork Bommerz are slightly fiddly…
I am currently putting together the Forgeworld Epic Ork Bommers.
They are really nice castings and well detailed, but are somewhat fiddly to put together as the kits contain very small parts.
Each Bommer comes with six bombs, I am going to only glue four on as I will use the spares for the ground vehicles that I am converting for use on the airfield.
These ground vehicles will include fuel trucks, crane trucks, weaponload trucks, tow vehicles and other types of vehicles you would expect to see on an Ork airfield.
I also hoping that Forgeworld will release the trailers (especially the tanker trailer) from their 40K scale range in Epic scale – this will give me a lot of conversion material.
Grot Bomb launched and bounced off the frontal armour again…
I do like the Forgeworld Grot Bomb Launcha and it is great fun in games.
This picture from a recent game is just after I launched the Grot Bomb at an Imperial Hellhound and as per usual it bounced off the frontal armour….
It seems to do that a lot, it strikes the target (always a tank), but fails to do any damage. Perhaps I should go for different targets such as infantry?
I think the real answer is to go for a few more and create a barrage of Grot Bombs, that may work…
You can see on my workbench feature how I put together and painted this excellent little model.
Squiggoth in action from a recent game…
With Orks with Burnaz on board it was a force to be reckoned with.
Even though the rules (as is) don’t allow Burnaboyz on board, it makes for an effective CityFight unit.
Orks and Grots advance, they were suppose to be defending…
This picture was taken from a recent game.
The Orks were defending the ruins of a city facing an onslaught of Imperial Guard.
Here we have one of the new Forgeworld trailers acting as a piece of scenery in a recent game of Warhammer 40K.
It is a very nice kit, and well detailed (as would be expected from Forgeworld).
This is a Forgeworld Salamander that my gaming opponent has made.
He said it was a good kit, though some of the resin was rather “plastic-like”.
It is a well detailed kit.
I have also decided that I will go with a desert theme with them, and that I will be basing all the units including vehicles…. we’ll have to see how that goes!!!
My Ork Airfield Defence Force will also be in a desert theme so that I can inter-mix units.
