I don't see any problems with the weapons attached to the arms, atleast not to orks that is. o:

Neither to marines... :B

Correction, before ya'll go apeshit on me: only the trigger hand is fixed to the gun, no left hand gripping the stock like the Cadian sprues. Plus if I am not mistaken the sprue comes with one or two spare shootas. Not too sure, but GW is now really going at it when it comes to packing their new kits full of extra stuff.

Thank you for the clarification on the sprue.

I need some good names for my small Ork Kommando Kill-team. They did pretty well today under the direction of my brother, killing their selves a way through thirty Guardsmen patrols and their target at the loss of one Kommando. To celebrate this victory I'm looking for good names for these orks. They are mostly straight from the box, with some minor conversions to get them more over the top. I want these guys named, or have simple but over the top codenames as seen in bad action movies and GIJOE. I've come up with some crappy names, so I'd like your input for better ones.

Members of the skawd (pic stolen from GW):

Nob: Kaptin Rok (needs a bettah name!)
Kommando with gigantic knife: "Rambork" (I am in the process of making a large bow with strapped on bangstick for this model and maybe try my hand at giving him a red head band)
Kommando with bangstick: "Sappah" (the squad sapper, the knife is replaced by a WIP oversized wire cutter made from two spare Kutta's)
Kommando with fixed bayonet on slugga: "Spottah" (for his ability to walk into traps as a pointman and thus, "spotting" them)
Kommando with face mask: ??? (This one has a custom silencer added to his slugga, so he is the sneaky git of the team)

Expect WIP shots tomorrow, at first light..

Gotta love Ork Kommandos, I have a Killteam myself named "Da Blazin' Skullz", and they're superb in Kill Teams (especially with the new rules, gotta love em! FINALLY AN ARMOURSAVE!).

A name eh? Well think like a Blood Axe, since most kommandos are blood axes, using cammo and "taktikz" like 'umies tend to do.

A suggestion for the Nob would be: Kummanda Klawzkull and Bangit (His grot could need a catchy name, don'tcha think?)

Alot of the name of the kommando team could come with the paintscheme, since I paint all skull marks on them in a blazin' orange one I call them Blazin' Skullz, a small team from an outcast Blood Axe tribe.

Can't wait to see dem WIP'z :B

WAAAGH!

*Edit: Just to add, the Kommando Nob is the coolest Nob GW have EVER made! :B

Also, you might want to add a big shoota for your kill team eh? They're fairly cheap and they help alot once the sentries have spooted you, since it's assult 3 STR 5 after all, but then again Orks can't hit a barn even if they're inside it... xD;;;

Yeah, I want this squad to be over the top and a homage to those crazy ultra violence war movies, so quirky code names and stereotypes in the squad are a must.

Both the shoota and skorcha will be added to the squad next year, along with some extra kommandos made from Gorkamorka Nobz and some Imperial Guard bits, like the hat of "Fingers" Vagin:

Shooting is really bad, my brother didn't manage to kill a single guardsman with his shooting. So more brass will be needed in order to make the baddies drop.

Personally I think the GorkaMorka nobz will be a tad bit too big to be used as normal orks, I'd either use the burna boy kit (because of the gas masks and such) or convert the burna and big shoota boyz so that they have CCW and a slugga.

These are some conversions I made with mine (yes one of them have a shoota illegally now, but hey, he's still badass!)

Whoa... I might be a bit off topic here showing off minis like this... xD

But there's easy ways to convert these boyz, which is the part I want to come to.

And by the way, I like that idea with the hat, my word would be that you should greenstuff it, it's not that hard actually now when you think of it.

How did you do that Kommando with the shoota? Tips plz mrgreen

Ever since I've seen those old concepts of the Kommandos in Vietnam styled camo and shootas I wanted them like that. Specialist grots carrying the exploding stuff is also an idea brewing in my mind for a long time now.

Those are Orks. This is a topic about Orks. I'm pretty sure it's still on-topic.

Anyways, if I manage to get some funds, I'm gonna start an Ork Combat Patrol, or even a Kill-Team.

Also: awesome Ork flowchart.

If you would go for kommandos with shootas then you should know that shootas on kommandos are illegal when the next codex comes out, but if you do so just put on a bayonet or something and say it's a shoota on semi-auto... xD;;;

All I did was that I cut off the arms, and glued on plastic shoota arms and greenstuffed the sleves onto the arms.

@ Inator: For me it seemed a tad bit offtopic since I didn't really discuss the orks more showed off some conversions which belongs to the modelling and painting part of the guild... xD;;;

My modest conversions. The one on the left has cuttas for razor wire and the one on the right has a silencer.

Any news about Wazdakka Gutmek? Will he make it in the new codex? Less then one month to go till the official realease of the new Orks Codex and no Wazdakka miniature sad

The only reason I'd play with Orks would be because of him and his ability (Warbikers as troops choice). Those new bikes are too cool. biggrin

Haven't people in this guild gotten their hands on the test-version of the codex in PDF?

Yes he is in the new codex, making you able to choose bikermobs as troop choice as you mentioned, and he's now having 3 Wounds and Toughnes of 5 (he's like a Strength 4 warboss on a bike) AND he can turbo-boost AND shoot at the same turn!

But I haven't heard about a new mini nor seen one, but I guess they'll make one sooner or later, or you'll just have to get good at convertin' and make him that way.
