Auren Shiro Orks? Out gun 'rines? That's a bit disconcerting! From what I've seen, the ONLY advantage that orks have is that you get enough orks together, you can roll over armies like the IG and 'Nids. Tau vs Orks. Ouch for the orks. yea, but that mad moons and they're a shoot ork tribe. orks vs. tau it's hard, but you just need to push the tau in a corner and give them a lot of targets.

Oh, no, don't get me wrong. I did not say that in expectation that they would let us be able to use cover and our armour saves. All I'm saying is that they need a way of explaining why if our guys duck for cover thier armour all of a sudden becomes ineffective if they don't get down fast enough.
I don't know, I guess all I'm asking for is some explanation here. (not that I wouldn't mind placing my terminators behind bunkers.)

Look at it this way.
The (Bastared) Space Marine armor save is 3. (the cheating bastards.)
An Orks is 6, if we're lucky.
A 3 with a cover save of 4 is unfair agianst a 6 witha cover 4. You get one or the other.
Cover does nothing for the (cheating) Space Marines, but greatly helps armies with poor armor saves like the Ork (who rock) and the Nids. (Squig lunch.)

Yes, but only nobz and the Boss has access t othat. And thats what, 5-6 models. And even then, we move slower and the 'eavy armor isn't that great. Its just a Space marine. However, my ork army wins against space marines alot, but not agianst my friends. But he is a legal cheater.

No, although I will agree with you in most cases there...from what I've seen you do have to give even ork losers some credit. They just seem a bit unfair when faced with many of the other armies. Also, the major one is appearently armies that are big on grey knights...your supposed to be veteran to really play those guys well, but so far I haven't had very many problems with them. Except when up against space marines because of a lack of heavy infantry.

lord_illpalazzo Now, I never said that I never win. I win often, but only not aginst one of my friends. Theres nothing wrong with Space Marines. As an Ork player, you shouldn't be complaining, with your Choppas. Sorry, but the Space Marines pay for that armor heavily in points. Now, as to my question: Do Grots have any kind of grenade?
