“Make sure you get my good side, Mortal!”
I have been working on painting some Kromlech “Gnaws” lately. They come in packs of three and there are currently two sets of different sculpts available. My favorite right now is this guy with the lovely cluster of cheek warts. I doubt they’ll get much use for me in games, though I might dabble with…

Orks Versus Grey Knights: “Uh, Sir, that’s a little too close.”
As if the Grey Knights didn’t have enough trouble. They semi-successfully defended “the relic” from a covetous space marine chapter, when a bunch of orks rumbled onto the very same battlefield twenty minutes later. Almost makes one feel bad for the boys from Titan, except there is no pity in the 41st millennium. The mission…

Twin-Linked Tournament: “The Space Communists”
We made the drive up from Santa Cruz to Sacramento on Sunday to participate as “The Space Communists” in the Twin Linked Tournament, which is basically a doubles format where each player fields 1000 points. My team partner, Mark, played Tau and I played Orks. His was a rather eclectic group of blueskins, featuring a…

Moar Boyz: Trukk Squad Done
I finished my ‘ard shoota boyz trukk squad after several months of work. They are mostly armed with Kalashnikovs, which have proven a robust and effective assault rifle in the far future. I painted enough orks so that I can run them with just shootas or I can include a rokkit or big shoota, as…

The Lost Lost Orks Return: Shoota Boy #9
I haven’t been playing or painting for 40K for several months and consequently haven’t been updating this blog. (Not updating my blog or playing 40K makes my Hungry the Warboss cry.) I was finding the hobby a little stale, as I periodically do, but after a break I’ve refreshed myself and have started painting again.…

Moar Boyz!
I finished painting the first four boyz of what will be another trukk squad of twelve orks. I assembled them mostly from Kromlech bits. I used Kromlech’s armored torsos and mixed in some heads with helmets from Spellcrow because I might occasionally field them as 4+ armor save ‘ard boyz for friendly games. The idea…

CSM/Orks vs. Dark Angels: Turns Two & Three
Greenskins hotfoot it away from Dark Angel nephilim. TURN TWO: Six bone white terminators appeared in a circle of green light on the biker’s right flank, who then moved out on cue behind the helbrute and up the hill in front of the aegis line. A terminator pointed at the ground. A wall of blue…

CSM & Orks vs. Dark Angels: Turn One
Dark Angel bikers attack! TURN ONE: Dark Angel bikers backed by their darkshroud landspeeder skirted a high plateau and roared up to within striking range of the chaos defenses. The True Ultramarines blinked and suddenly there was a blob of darkness from which a flock of hungry engines boomed and whined. A black and gold…
