The Forges of Ghorok Campaign - Scenario 5: The Sublevels

The Darkness was punctuated by scattered lights in hidden recesses throughout the Reclamat’s corridor walls. Flickering pict displays and malfunctioning sodium arc lights revealed little of the path ahead. The sounds of the two converging enemy forces and the acrid stink of ozone permeated the stale air. Somewhere within these halls awaited the Fabricator Loqum of Shatara and the cherished STCs for which, on both sides, so much had been sacrificed. The Mission The allied forces of the Blood Ravens and the Adeptus Mechanicus have finally reached the dark sublevels of the Reclamat facility. Their goal is to find the Fabricator Locum and the STCs before the Orks can. Unfortunately, the Orks have reprogrammed some of the Reclemat’s servitors to fight by their side. The Armies For this scenario, 500 points each of Adeptus Mechanicus and Blood Ravens forces are fighting against 500 points of Orks and 500 points of “servitors” which are being represented by Necrons. Each 500 ...

Some Trukks!

I decided to keep things light and easy this month. I built two Trukks from a single kit plus a ton of bitz. One of the Trukks features a Grot pilot. I'll likely use this Trukk whenever I buy one as Fast Attack and pack Gretchin inside it. The other Trukk rides pretty high and uses a shaped charge for its "reinforced ram". For that one, I gave it the symbols for Nobz and intend to use it for my blue Meganobz. The red one has been sitting around for quite some time and I'll simply use that for Boyz or my Looted Terminator Meganobz.

The Forges of Ghorok Campaign - Scenario 4 Battle Report

Ordo Xenos Inquisitor Fedrico Caphone growled. His white-and-gold metal edifice refused to push forward fast enough for his tastes. It was an ungainly, constant reminder of his long captivity among the Orks of Ghorok. The frustration of being wetwired into the lumbering Dreadnought body could not dull his zeal, however. After many long months, he had returned to Ghorok to exact his revenge upon the greenskins. This was the only vector which remained for him. His physical state made it problematic to return to Terra and part of him had resigned to the possibility that his mental state was also not quite stable enough to withstand the stress daily Imperial politics. It did not matter, though. Terra and the rigors of Inquisitorial posturing held as much interest to him now as the base human activities in which he no longer took part. Therefore, he had remained with the Blood Ravens in the Pakeshi Sector.  The desire in his heart for bloody revenge was masked by the reasonable...

WAAGH! Krakbone Emerges From the Ashes of Drillteef's Empire

Although Doc Drillteef was initially successful at securing a beach-head in the Pakeshi Sector, the numbers of his WAAGH! had diminished greatly and his power base died with a whimper. Several large Orks rose up and slaughtered many of the Oddboyz who had gained too much power for Orks their size in the Drillteef heirarchy. Finally, the biggest of them all, Boss Krakbone took a big gamble and made a play for the mighty Drillteef himself. Witnessed by hundreds of Orks, Krakbone charged Doc Drillteef with a mighty roar, brought up his shoota, and fired a single shot. The bullet miraculously found its mark right between Drillteef's eyes. The warlord was on his back in a cloud of dust before Krakbone could swing a single blow with his Power Klaw. The crowd of assembled Orks cheered while Krakbone raised his arms in triumph and the Doc's corpse was carried away by his swarm of orderlies. After this event, Krakbone immediately siezed control of the WAAGH!'s holdings, inc...
