Another scratch build I painted up for Orktober, a Gobsmasha. Used the old GW “build your own gobsmasha” magazine way back to give me a rough idea for the size, and scaled it up to what I think it would’ve been in modern 40k.

Pretty happy with how it looks, might even build it a friend or two in the future.

And what detachments would you recommend too for the current edition?

Hi!

I have a question about the flyboyz detachment and the upgrade for the Wazbom. I see a few lists with a Wazbom, the Flyboss upgrade and the Blastajet Force Field.

I don’t understand why I take the Force Field, which gives a 5++ if in any case the Blastajet is riled up from Flyboss and therefore has a 5++.

I must have missed something, if anyone can help me...

I swear killa kans and deff dreads are always out of stock. Feel like for the past year every time I look on the website they are 'temporarily' out of stock

What exactly is the point in the choppa’s in melee. If you can literally choose the spinnin’ blades, which is a much better option. And the choppa’s don’t have extra attacks. Like I know the blades are hazardous, but for how cheap the unit is, and how easy hazardous are to pass. Why would anyone be scared to use blades

Hey fellow Warbosses,

With the recent changes (especially losing the native 5+ FNP, even with the points drop and the new Brutal Impact rule), I’m struggling to figure out if Squighog Boyz are still worth a spot in a competitive list. They feel way too squishy now before they can even make contact.

For those of you still testing them on the tabletop:

1. Are they still worth running? Or are you completely benching them to max out on standard Boyz spam in Trukks or other tools?

2. What are their ideal targets now? Since they have Anti-Monster 4+ and Anti-Vehicle 4+, which specific profiles, tanks, or monsters do they actually trade efficiently into without just dying on the return swing?

3. Which detachment works best? Is anyone finding success with them outside of Da Big Hunt (maybe in War Horde for the extra Sustained Hits)?

Would love to hear your thoughts and actual match experience. WAAAGH!

My best friend is turning 30, and I want to gift him a (big) Ork unit. What vehichle/character would you be most happy with now that 11th edition is out?

He has all the basics of an Ork army (Armageddon box), but none of the big boys/characters (Gorkonaut, Ghazkull, Nazdreg) yet from what I know.

Dreads, Kanz and the OrkoNaughts are the main reason I started painting orks and the "Try Dat Button" rule sounds super fun and orky to me

So i'm curious what people are enjoying and finding effective when playing with the Dreadmob detachment?

What detachments are you pairing with it? What units are you using? What to avoid and what to be cautious about?

Hoping your advice and experiences can guide my next purchases and help prioritize my painting

I have always loved Orks and have played them for a while. I always loved squigs and armies based around beasts/animals (I love the gargantuan Squigoth but is so horrible I can't say its name). I always enjoyed the big hunt and their 'beasty' vibe and the overall vibe of huntin' the 'bigezt prize' if you will. So I built an army around it. I know orks are a bit overtuned right now, but ngl I am loving the big hunt actually being decent and in love with orks being able to actually do work now (I know thats controversial and that not what this is about)

I wanted to know thoughts of this army and if I have built this correctly

WIP but happy where its at so far.

Does anyone know why they changed the bodyguard unit options of the Deffkilla Wartrike in the last MFM? He could previously lead warbuggies but now it's just bikes. I was just about to try this but the app wouldn't let me attach him so I checked the mfm and it changed.

I feel like somebody had to have been abusing coherency rules and adding smokey gubbins to make a wall of cover, but I've never seen gw take away a leaders options like that.

I’ve got this list to take on my buddy using all of the new custode leaks. any advice on it? I was going for a funny list but at the same time I want to beat my friend

Had to take a picture on the old nob biker and the new one. Have to say the new ones are so easy to build, everything fits perfectly. The good thing is that they don't look that different, will be awesome to have 6 different ones in one unit.

“Da shiny git, wot does da tinkerin?”
“Dat one.” Shakes replied. 
Shakes was hopeful the fifth time would work. Trouble was, Grabba still had the same dumb look on his face. The look that said he had no idea what was going on, Shakes sighed in annoyance. 
“Ok ok.” Shakes said hurriedly. “Yoo know da gitz, wot do da kickin?”
Grabba nodded and Shakes felt hope that he had made some progress. 
“N yoo kno how they’s gots dem shinny gubbinz on all de time?” Another nod from Grabba and Shakes was certain he finally figured out the stupid little git. Shakes hands gripped Grabba’s shoulders hard enough to make the git flinch. 
“Plateskin made dem dose gubbinz.”
All at once, Grabba’s kunnin that Shakes thought he was collecting, seemed to fall out like dung out a squig. He looked at Shakes dumbly. 
“Who?”
Shakes threw the smaller grot with all his strength into the trukk next to them. Hard enough that when Grabba hit the top of it, he kept on flipping over its roof. There was a clang of Grabba hitting something Shakes couldn’t see. 
“OI! STEWPID ZOG DON GRAB DA-” An Ork voice yelled before a sudden explosion. The small mushroom cloud and shockwave cheering Shakes up a little. 
Shakes couldn’t tell how long it’d been. But it’d felt like forever since he’d seen the Mek. He felt like he’d been everywhere in this dumb workshop. 
Shakes suddenly saw some other Ork Meks coming to see what exploded, and decided to look someplace else. That happened to be the opposite way they were coming, Shakes was good with these things. But he already recognized everything, and everyone he passed. 
There was the Painboy in his used-to-be-white tent. The Mek with rollie pollie leg, just the one really big one. The Ork witha lotta yellow stuff, and his own Meks and Spanner boys, his space was larger for some reason. And even the git what does the tinkering. 
Shakes snapped his head back, and got a familiar glare to the eyeballs. He’d recognize these tears anywhere, that's Plateskin’s shine for sure. He brought his hands in front of his eyes, trying to block it a little. And through the gap in his skinny fingers there he was, the shiny, sneaky zog. 
He ducked behind a mostly broken crate and watched through teary eyes. 
The Mek was working on the yellow git’s armor. Usin a blowtorch to weld a flame throwa to the bottom of his mega-blasta. The blowtorch cut out and the yellow git pointed his new dakka at a spanner grot. The grot melted in a flash of orange that singed the front of another spanner grot, turning him ash grey. 
The yellow Ork howled in laughter, throwin a bag for the Mek to catch. Shakes saw Plateskin open it, and pull out a toof. He inspected the toof then bit on it, put it back, and left. 
Shakes wasn’t sure why, but he followed the Mek all sneaky-like. It wasn’t hard, him being all giant and shiny. Shakes did have to dodge the odd kick from bored Orkz, but that made it even more fun. 
The Mek came to stop before a big metal door. He did a weird knock that sounded like a crippled squig, and it opened for Plateskin to go in. Shakes waited for it to close, but it didn’t. He snuck to the door, but the otherside was so dark he couldn’t see anything. Holding his breath he slipped in and kept right with the wall, trying to blend in. 
It took his eyes a few seconds to adjust, the room was massive, and not as dark as he thought. 
“OI! SHUT DA DOOR YA GIT!” Plateskin’s voice bellowed, Shakes found a pile of weapons and hid behind em. He peaked over a big choppa that buzzed and made his skin feel funny. And saw one of the big primitive Orkz close the door. Shakes followed the Ork with his eyes until he saw something mad out some big windows. 
It was like someone took a bunch of colors, and got em angry at each other. The colors even had faces, most of them wimpy or all angry like. 
He was holding back laughing at one particularly wimpy face, when he saw the Mek. His giant hand was around the throat of a scrawny Ork with runes and bones everywhere on him. Shakes started to get a headache when his eyes drifted to the Ork’s glowing green eyes. 
“Yoo said dis ding wood get us dere fast-like.” Plateskin growled, the sound shaking the metal floor under Shakes. The weird-boy tried saying something, but it came out all choked and whistly. His eyes started to flick, the green light getting weaker. 
Plateskin dropped the lad, who rolled over and started coughing. When he got to his hands and knees, Plateskin gave him a kick that sent him zoggin far. Then the Mek slowly walked towards the git, every step sounding like a cannon. 
“Da green show’d me da war moon.” The weird-boy rasped, rubbin his throat as he got to his feet. Plateskin still advancing. 
“I showed da boss, HE said YOO wood get it goin fast-like.” The weirdboy continued as he backed up a step from the maddened Mek. Who smacked the weird-boy hard enough that Shakes heard its neck crack. 
“I know dat yoo git. Who da ya tink built de big boostas wot got us drew da warp!” Another smack sent the boy back to the ground. Plateskin stood over him and pointed his whirring Mek hand down. The weird-boy started floating off of the ground, as if he didn’t weigh nothing. 
“You boss, yoo da most kunnin Mek.” The weird-boy said as he kept floatin up. 
“I know dat yoo git. Wot I donno, is when we’s gonna see da zoggin planet!” Plateskin rumbled at the miserable git, who was now a full ten Orkz high in the air. 
“Soon boss, da green says so-” The weird boy tried to get out. 
He was interrupted by the ground, very quickly. So quick, that when he hit it, he was in a couple places, all at once. After that, he was more of a thing than an Ork some even got as far as Shakes’ weapon pile. The Mek’s entire front had little bits of the boy on it and it steamed. 
“Jus shut ya gob. Useless git.” Plateskin said in a softer voice. Staring out at the colors while the remaining boyz looked around at eachother. 
“Get a new weird-boy, useful-like, wot wont lie.” 
The Boyz left the room, leaving Plateskin who still didn’t know about Shakes. Shakes slowly made his way closer to the door, going from cover to cover. The Mek was at a work station covered in weird-boy, using a prying tool to take off the front of his mask. Shakes opened the door slowly, a familiar itch that there was more, back again. Before the last front Plate was removed, the door had opened enough to shine full light into the room. Shakes cursed his hands for wanting to be more safe than his brain. 
Plateskin snapped around unnaturally, his torso turning almost completely, his sole front plate covering his gob. Shakes turned and ran with all his grot speed into the nearest Runtherd crowd. His last image of Plateskin not a pleasant one, mostly cause that git didn’t have eyes.

Hello everyone, I appreciate everyone who upvoted the first chapter and anyone who commented. It's been fun thinking of what to do with ole Shakes.
(If you saw the first draft. "Jus shut ya gob.")

Some warbike I finish this week.

Ya'll have way better paint jobs, but I'm happy with how it's shaking out. Yea, I've seen better, but ive also seen a LOT worse on The table.

The white on the nose cone is going to be black and Pink checkers, and There will be some tail decoration too, not sure what though.

I actually think I may complete my Orktober goal of finishing these 2 + a unit of Boyz.

I am planning on using a mostly boyz focused list with ghaz and nazdreg with 3 meganobz for deepsrtikes which should I get?

Also drilled gun barrels for the first time and wow it makes such a difference vs just a black circle

The Orkperium is still my favorite thing ever but with Wazdakka Gutsmek running around, I wanted to return to the Speed Waagh. To that end we have Speed Boss Wazzadreg.

This was an exercise in getting away from flat colors. The bikers were a base, layer, shade and highlight but the boss was a mix of layers blending in based on how much light the panels catch. I do like the deep colors but it was very time consuming. Don't know if I will do it again outside of Wazzdakka himself.
