mactire Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 There's a painting challenge starting in November, it's basically start a force you've never had before. You build up in detachments, and I'm wondering what consists of a Patrol for the Orks. I've got the StormClaw set with Grukks Boyz along with some old sprues consisting of about another 7 or 8 Boyz. Can anyone give me a rough idea of what would be a very basic starter Patrol Detachment. Thanks in advance.

toaae Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 At the very least, a Warboss and ten gretchin would be a Patrol. Personally, I'd want to have a big mob of boyz at the minimum.

Wolf Lord Duregar Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 It is a bit tricky with Orks fpr HQ´s in smaller games, in my humble opinion.. But if you have Grukk you might as well paint him now! it is a cool model and you will probably use him later on. I would then paint boyz and gretchin.. Atleast ten boyz, preferably twenty but maybe excessive now? Since you have the Nobz, maybe those too? But you can never really have too many boyz.. It can be fun if you do a little work on them for variation - like one with two sluggas shooting gangsta style.. Cut the odd choppa and slugga at the wrist and make it a different angle and so on.. I find that more fun anyways, and makes them more personal.. And helps painting many..

mactire Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does the Runt Master count as a HQ with Gretchin as a troop unit?

In fact, a Runtherd doesn't take up any slots, so can't be used to fill any mandatory spot.
