Gederas Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I'm honestly kind of torn on how to feel about the vehicles. I mean, from a design standpoint they're fantastic. They all look real flash and I'm sure Evil Sunz/Speed Freeks players are going nuts right now, and they should be! But, at the same time, I'm hoping the only new kits we are getting aren't just buggies and bikes. We still have super limited options for our warbosses, nobz, kommandos, etc. Not trying to start a whingefest, just holding out hope for a bit more beyond just new buggies Id love to see a multi part plastic warboss and maybe a separate upgrade sprue compatible with the boyz box to make some of the other foot slogging choices in the dex. No, your points are valid. Trust me, in the Orks group I'm in on FB, I saw true whining. I was so enraged that B&C was down at the beginning of the month. I had to deal with people being "It's Orktober, where's the Orks?" literally at the beginning of the month. And we ARE getting a multi-part Plastic Warboss. Did you see the Kill Team Commander for Orks? That's the Grukk model without the Nobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triszin Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I do agree with what someone said, that these new ork sculpts with these vehicles will make most of the rest of the range look dated. I kinda hope we see new boys/nobs within the next 6 months. I'd like a range refresh to better match sigmar and 40k, at least in physique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you look at the amount of mold lines on the standard boys, its quite low. Compare that to the Guardsmen or some of the Chaos Marine Range you can build a long list of kits thats molds will need replacing first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fair point Personally, for units with "different heads / weapons" that's what Forgeworld is for IMO, and in fact Komandos are catered for this there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triszin Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Some more info regarding the upcoming Speed Freeks box game: What is the Speedwaaagh!? *** Rumours that some Snakebites have attached booster engines to gargantuan Squiggoths in an attempt to speed them up are as yet unproven. So, I only have Tau and SPace wolves. I am now seriously considering making a goofy ork army, focused around the squig buggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvih Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 And we ARE getting a multi-part Plastic Warboss. Did you see the Kill Team Commander for Orks? That's the Grukk model without the Nobs. Grukk has been available separately before. And what I think he was hoping for was a boss with actual options and posability, Grukk while multi-part is still essentially just an ol' monopose figure. Anyway. For the other buggies I forgot that they're coming in the box set. So I MIGHT get that depending what kind of price I can find it for.

toaae Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I'll be putting old Ork heads on the bodies of the orks in the buggies, maybe bodies too, depending on how it is in person. I just wanna know their rules so badly, cause I wanna know if I should be buying one of each for my collection, or one of each except 3 of one and 5 of another.

FlamingDeth Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Yeah, I like the chiseled look of the Brian Nelson sculpts better myself, so if I get the new vehicles I'll be switch out the heads. The new ones look too...squishy? I dunno. That's if I get any of the new ones. They look nice, don't get me wrong, but I have very few non-looted vehicles.

toaae Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I was typing up about wondering about the cost, and then realized it is 5 power level... so, i'd guess 90-120 points. Yeah. I think I'll want a squadron of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 That's some dangerous rivets! Looks like they could be pretty useful. I'm not sure if I'd remember to fire the Stikkbomb and the Grot blasta every turn though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if I'd remember to fire the Stikkbomb and the Grot blasta every turn though. Well, the fluff from Speed Freeks states those "rivets" are for STOMPAS AND GARGANTS.

Magos Takatus Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 That makes sense. It's a bit like the Fallout Railway rifle then? https://youtu.be/uI5wiAAHvtY?t=377 Well, similar, but much larger. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toaae Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 PiñaColada shared the Warhammer Community post in the News and Announcements sub-forum. I won't repost my full thoughts, but the take away for me is that it looks like we'll have new options for supplemental anti-tank from the new buggies, which I feel we desperately need.

Dribble Joy Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I am so ready for these. Anyone have any examples of Bad Moonz cults of speed? Lore-wise or people's armies? For the former, Speed Freakz/Kult of Speed is more a sub-culture (or Kultur) of ork society, rather than a Klan, so it can pop up anywhere. It can be a section of a tribe or warband or the dominating theme of an army. Less likely with Bad Moons than Evil Sunz, but quite possible. As for the latter, I've never seen one.
