Orksvent 2016 Part 10: Krork Tide Formation



When a Paragon WAAGH! thunders to war, it is the march of the Krork Brutes which strike a hopeless fear into their enemies. While a tide of Ork Boyz can be managed by a liberal application of lasgun fire, the Krork Brutes keep coming, shaking off wounds that would fell the average greenskin warrior. The Krork Tide often forms the vanguard of a Paragon WAAGH!, breaking through the enemy lines, disorganizing the enemy position, and allowing more fragile or slower Ork units to make their way into the fray unmolested.

Krork Tide Formation

Formation:

  • 1 of the following:
    • Krork Megaboss
    • Warboss
    • Weirdboy
  • 5 units of Krork Brutes

Restrictions:

Units in this Formation may not select a Dedicated Transport

Special Rules:

Tide of BrutesBrutal or Possibly Kunning, Hatred, Fearless

Mobbed Up: All the units from this Formation are deployed as a single unit. Only when every model in this unit has been destroyed will your opponent count as having killed these units for missions which count kill points.

Frenzy: Models in this formation enjoy a +1 to their Feel No Pain against wounds caused by Overwatch. In addition, on a turn in which this unit makes a successful charge, models enjoy a +1 to their Feel No Pain until the start of their next turn. Note: this means that, if under the effects of Brutality is a Kunning all its own special rule from the Kaptin's Banner Formation, these effects will stack against wounds caused by Overwatch.

Ordo Draconis Armies on Parade

As I finish up models that have been sitting in my queue, I've been doing army shots including them. Last week, I finished up the knight models I had lying around. The lore for Knight House Draco has advanced in the Era Indomitus. The house's pencheant for daemon fighting has caught the eye of the Ordo Malleus and they have been brought into the fold. Their worlds have been put under communications blackout and household forces sworn to the crusade against the Ruinous Powers. They are now known as the Ordo Draconis and even Greater Daemons tremble at the mere mention of their name. Tiamat Drogon Gojira Melificent Falcor Smaug Jabberwocky Jormungandr The Eye Stalkers

How Did it Come to This? 10,000 Points of Painted Orks

One can only make so many milestone posts before people eventually get soul-crushingly bored of them.  However, I'm going to make an exception here because with my Vengeance Batteries, I've reached a total of 10,000 points painted with my Orks.  These points include reasonable upgrades, but not ridiculous add-ons like Kill Kannons for the Battlewagons.  Let's not be silly . Here's a video of the army.  Unlike the one I did for 7,000, this does not include a running commentary of each unit.  I simply cannot find the time to do that.  However, at the end of the post, please find a complete army list. Please try to view in YouTube instead of this embed because I uploaded it at full resolution and it took me forever.  You won't be disappointed! I started playing this game in 2010 when some friends and I suddenly realized that we finally had grown-up jobs and could actually afford it.  I'd always danced around the idea of collecting Orks either for F

As usual, the Rogue Trader idea keeps percolating and collecting one kit at a time in its little, plastic container. Orks: 9x Killa Kans 3x Deffkoptas (also need to rebase
